How did you find ACOT?? I think I was searching the website, and bookmarked it. At somepoint I joined the message board so I could see what an NSD crop was like online, and then I was hooked. I joined in 2008.

What technique would you like to learn? How about the technique that would make my layouts so amazing that I could be on any ct I wanted to be on! I think that is called "creativity"!

How many photos do you usually place on a layout? I used to put no less than 3 to 5 pics on a layout. I now use 1 to 3 more often than not. (I also used to do more 2 page layouts, but acot has corrupted me!)

Are you into digital or paper layouts? I'm much more into paper layouts, but I love doing hybrid, and digi. I just haven't done a lot yet. I'm still learning a lot of techniques.

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? I'm currently working on 2008. I need to start my Yellowstone album as soon as that's finished.

Do you have your own scrap room? If you count the corner of my son's room that I have taken over! As soon has my husband's shoulder heals, we are moving everything downstairs into my own room, that I will share with the xbox.

Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? Why, yes I have. I used to go at least twice a year with a friend, but I have so much stuff now, I just crop with ACOT, and I love it, because of all the challenges and prizes.

What gives you the creeps? BUGS AND FEET!

Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? Mostly a night owl. But that sucks when I have to get up early.

What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage?Well, I want to know what a pink squirrel is. Otherwise..anything with Vodka. (I get depressed when I drink anything with rum!)

Are you into digital or paper layouts? paper only, love the feel and dimension

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? Finishing up when grandchildren were here

Do you have your own scrap room? yes, and I love it!!!! Have had it about 7 months now and I would be lost to go back to kitchen table, lol

Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? just online, here at ACOT

What gives you the creeps? snakes, snakes, did I say snakes, lol.

Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? night owl mostly, though I have been getting up pretty early lately.

How did you find ACOT?? Way back when, when ACOT was Stickers Galore and had a bricks and mortar store, I shopped there. Didn't initally like the website when i first found it because I thought it was hard to navigate. But a little over a year ago I tried it again, got involved in posting layouts and the message boards, and here I am...you can't shut me up!

What technique would you like to learn? would love to get better at using paint...I tend to shy away from it

How many photos do you usually place on a layout? depends on the photo and the layout. My record is 18 photos on a 2 page layout, but I rarely do 2 pagers anymore. I would say 1-4.

Are you into digital or paper layouts? paper, definitely. I'm a tactile person.

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? just finished a "use your stash" challenge of Halloween pics of DD from 3 years ago.

Do you have your own scrap room? depends on how you define that. I have my scrapping in the corner of my bedroom, but as I am divorced, it is my room and my room alone, so I guess I have a scrap room! But I don't have a dedicated scrap space....maybe when I can free up a bedroom.

Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? yes, both

What gives you the creeps? loogies from a tracheostomy (ask a nurse...she'll probably cringe too)

Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? definitely night owl.....I've worked nights for 8 years and habits don't change easily.

What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage? I rarely drink as I have a weird reaction to it and get hives. But I can live thru others, right? I am seriously in love with diet Coke...it's my anytime beverage.

Well I think I fall in this category now.


How did you find ACOT?? Was looking for an online store for some Heidi Grace product a couple of years ago.



What technique would you like to learn? I would like to learn more about the many use of punches and making flowers.


How many photos do you usually place on a layout? Probably average of 2- 3 photos per layout.


Are you into digital or paper layouts? Paper. I have never tried digital. I have too much stash to switch now.


What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? I am just starting to work on the March color combo contest. I have the papers, pictures and know how I want the layout to be. Just looking for some embellies to put on it.



Do you have your own scrap room? Yes and I love it. I took the flexroom right off my front entry. Great when going to crops or dd. No stairs to haul my stuff up/down. Just wish I had a door so that when it gets messy (which is more often than not) I can just shut the door. Might see if my sil can put in some french doors.



Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? I have done both. Just went to a 24 hour crop last weekend.


What gives you the creeps? Mice and spiders.



Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? It all depends on the day of the week. Working a full time job limits the night-owl, but if I had a choice I would be a night-owl.


What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage? Has to be a frozen Pina Colada.
