 What an excellent idea. I have sent some PM's and am anxiously awaiting my answers.

[kennabeans]

 I asked susvlgeo a few questions and here is what she said.

She has been scrapping for 6 and 1/2 years and scraps paper only. She scraps her one and only Cole the most and really loves to use Stickles. Me too!! Her favorite "brick and Mortar" store is Archivers.

Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions. It was fun to hear a little bit about you.

 I have seen beachlover's name around the board so I asked her a few questions to get to know her better. Here is what she said.

She only scraps paper because she is a digi dork. lol She has had various favorite embellishments through the years but at the time Kaiser pearls are her favorite. She has been scrapping for eight years but only been at ACOT for about a year. She will definately be Cropping this weekend. She scraps a little bit of everything and plans to get her entire life done as well as her son's, someday.

Thanks for taking the time to answer a few questions, Lynn

 I just had to meet AlwaysHappy. I loved her screen name and wanted to learn more about her. She was kind enough to answer my questions.

She has been scrapping for about 5 years and started out with digital but has since switched to paper. She loves the textures and combinations you can use on papers. Her favorite embellishment is charms and she prefers the vintage looking ones. IF she could learn something new, it would be stamping and distressing inks. She would really like to be at the crop this weekend since she has never done an online crop but her daughter may be in town so she may not be able tojoin us. Bummer that you may not be here but time with your daughter is definately more important. Have a great weekend.

 I met Lynn, aka Kennabeans.Are you going to be around for the crop this weekend? I hope to be around. I am going shopping today to get supplies and snacks and I told dh about it. So the groundwork has been laid for a weekend of scrapping with friends.
What is your fave scrappy supply? I really love Cat's Eye Inks and Felt Fusion, not sure which I love more lol
What technique do you want to do that you haven't done yet? I do not know how to use Glimmer Mist
Where are you from? We live in Iowa but travel with my husband for his work and we have lived in Iowa, Pennsylvania and Indiana in the last 9 months. One of the best things about traveling is visiting different scrap stores. he he
Favorite reality show? I love the BIggest Loser. I could really stand to be on it myself but instead I sit and eat my junk food while I watch the show.

Are you new or old to ACOT?  I have purchased from them before, but did not realize they had a message board.  I just posted for the first time this week.
What kind of camera do you use?  I have a Canon Digital Rebel. 
Do you have any pets?   I have 2 kitties and a 40 gallon fish tank full of fish.  I love all animals and grew up on a farm.  I would love to move to a farm so I could have even more animals.
What eles do you like to do other than scrapbooking?  I love music and it is my greatest passion.  I also crochet and love to cook.
What is your favorite scrapbooking item?   I love my Tonic Trimmer and any and all paper.  I have a paper addiction.
How did you get into scrapbooking?   For Christmas in 2002 my DH surprised me with an XXL Tote full of scrapbooking supplies.  He had gotten the idea from a coworker whose wife scrapbooked.  I had never even said anything about scrapbooking but he thought it would be perfect for me as a new hobby especially given that I had a 2 year old to use as my muse.   I fell in love instantly and have not looked back.
