How did you find ACOT?? i was doing a search for digital challenges, and found you guys a few weeks back

What technique would you like to learn? i'm always on the look out for new ideas, techniques, something quirky and fun.

How many photos do you usually place on a layout? depends on the mood i am in and my time frame i have. lately ive been favouring less is more.. not sure if thats because of time restrictions hmmm.

Are you into digital or paper layouts? im a digital scrapbooker although i have a studio with a ton of paper, punches, diemachines stamps etc etc.. always saved because they are just to pretty to use..

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? i did a new born page for a friend of mine, her grandson was just born last month and i wanted to surprise her.

Do you have your own scrap room? as mentioned above i have a studio in the garden, there is just not enough space in the house. uk homes are tiny.

Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? no never, and im eager to go and do one


What gives you the creeps? erm... crawly things.. detest them with a passion, and strangely enough, horror movies lol.. which figures since thats what they are meant to do. i can not, will not, watch them under any circumstances

Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? i go through phases of being up late and then just crashing, but since joining this forum and you guys are at most 7 hours behind me.. possibly more, im guessing i might be up later and later.

What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage? hmmm, kinda a vodka and orange kinda gal. although nothing beats a good nutella hot chooclate
