Re: ***New Cherry Questionairre***
 Found ACOT about a year ago browsing online. My friend had just scrapped her trip to England and I thought it was so great. I was not scrapping yet.
 I need to learn how to work with the chipboard and stamping.
 I usually have several on a page
 Paper for now, but played with a simple scrapping software my friend had to make an invitation with pics last summer and it's peaked my interest to   perhaps trying to go hybrid.
 Just got back from a cruise, so I'm working with those pics
 Well, the computer room is small, so I usually end up at the dining room table
 Once. Did my very first page there and had a great time. It was at Orange Beach in Alabama last year.

Re: ***New Cherry Questionairre***
 How did you find ACOT?? 
I found ACOT through a swapping board.  We link to the site to purchase papers and stuff and I've only shopped here until the February crop this past weekend. *Hoping* to become a more active member now:)
What technique would you like to learn?
I love paper crafting too much to ever give it up (not to mention I have way too much stuff to use up) but I would love to at least know how to do basic digi scrapping. 
How many photos do you usually place on a layout?
I almost always use just one 5x7 on my layouts.  I try to only scrap the BEST of my pictures.  If there are several good ones than I scrap the best one in 5x7 and the others I'll crop down to use either on the same page, or all together on a page opposite it.
Are you into digital or paper layouts?
Paper
What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)?
Almost always pages of my kids.  I'm always the one behind the camera, so I don't scrap myself very often.
Do you have your own scrap room?
I do and I love it!  Even though it's a perpetual mess.
Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? 
Only online.  I think they're easier because I have so much junk and I could never decide what to take to a real life crop.
What gives you the creeps?
Barf, snakes, maggots, rotten potatoes with the disgusting growths on them
Are you a night-owl or an early-bird?
Depends on the day - usually both.
What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage?
Don't drink alcohol, but I do enjoy a good peppermint milkshake from Braum's in Texas.

Re: ***New Cherry Questionairre***
 How did you find ACOT?? I was looking for a place to order scrapbooking supplies since my town has only a Walmart and the corner of a small store to shop at for scrap supplies.

What technique would you like to learn? I would eventually like to learn how to digi scrap, it seems so much easier and less messy that paper.

How many photos do you usually place on a layout? I used to place as many as I could, but I have been learning through the challenges here that one photo and empty space is ok!

Are you into digital or paper layouts? I only do paper right now.

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? I did a lot of my hubby this weekend. I dont scrap him much since he usually takes the pictures, but I had some great ones and finally got them down. I usually do family, I love family and memories and I do this for my kids, so I want them to have the memories.

Do you have your own scrap room? No, living room floor or dining room table.

Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? I have been to 3 I think here and probably 4 at a store we used to have in town before it closed.

What gives you the creeps? Spiders

Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? Early bird originally, but I married a night owl so I stay up with him, and its harder to get up in the morning

What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage? Very boring, because its diet cherry coke

 I found this site by doing a google search for a certain product and found it in stock, and then spent (yikes!) a few hours just browsing.

I have my own scrap room.  My husband just shakes his head when he walks in, as I tend to kind of leave "works in progress", but to me it's my own little sanctuary.

Re: ***New Cherry Questionairre***
 A friend told me about ACOT, so I visited.  And bought a lot of stuff!  I would like to learn how to post pictures and lo.  I am not very comfortable with computers so I don't do digital stuff even though I have Scrapbook Factory.  I don't do a "usual" amount of pictures.  I look at all my pictures on a given subject or event, then decide what I want to scrap and how.  Lots of time I check out the gallery or a magazine for inspiration.  I have never completely copied any layout, but alter them to fit my needs, paper, embellishments, etc.  I am currently working on an album for my heritage; especially my father's side of the family with a few of my mother's side completed.  Alternating all that with trying to do pages of my children and grandchildren.  I have lots of started pages that are waiting for that special embellishment or inspiration to finish it.  I put these pages into the album, too.  I guess they are never really done.  I have a scrap table that is loaded up with lots of stuff.  Too loaded up to work on.  I ususally work at night.  I do private duty nursing and can take stuff to work on.  I went to a huge scrap in Gulf Shores, AL in early 2008.  It was great!  But there was so much going on that it was hard to concentrate on scraping.  There was classes, fun, food, lots of camaderie and very little sleep.  Sin gives me the creeps.  I stay creeped out a lot.  But, I'm trying.
