Hello! My name is Andrea and I live in Virginia. I've purchased from A Cherry on Top for years but never participated in the board. I thought I would complete the New Cherry Questionnaire!
suslvgeo wrote:How did you find ACOT?? I don't even remember. I have purchased products for a few years but never participated in the board.

What technique would you like to learn? That's a tough one. I'm not really sure.

How many photos do you usually place on a layout? Recently I've been making layouts for my nephews scrapbooks so I try to fit as many on the layouts as possible. I prefer clean, simple, linear pages so this new style that's emerged recently where there is one picture and fifty embellishments just mystifies me.

Are you into digital or paper layouts? Paper for sure!

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? My nephew's first birthday.Do you have your own scrap room? I have an extra room that houses a lot of supplies but I prefer to scrap in my dining/living room space.

Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? No

What gives you the creeps? Spiders, anything crawly really.

Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? Night owl, I crap at night a lot.

Re: ***New Cherry Questionairre***
Hello, my name is Barbara and I live in central New York.


How did you find ACOT??
I just found ACOT yesterday...and cannot remember how I got here but I had fun hunting for cherries AND placing my first order (which I messed up and needed to call the 888 #! They were very helpful and fixed my error, by the way!)

What technique would you like to learn? Can't think of one at the moment? My brain is too fried. I think I'd much rather re-visit some of the ones I've tried in the past.

How many photos do you usually place on a layout? 2-3

Are you into digital or paper layouts? paper

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? working on boy baby greeting cards...before that, Valentines cards...and before that, sewing-themed cards.

Do you have your own scrap room? yep, it's not fancy but it's definitely got my style...borderline hoarder and organized in detail.

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

What gives you the creeps? cutsie caricatures of owls

Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? definitely an early bird--I do my best work when my brain is fresh.

What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage? That would be 5am and it would be fresh-brewed coffee with cream.

Re: ***New Cherry Questionairre***
How did I find ACOT?
I found the ACOT website by accident while searching for scrapbooking items. So glad I stumbled upon this site. It has everything.

How many pictures on a page?
I usually have an odd number of pictures on my pages. I always do a 2 page layout. I am only a paper scrapbooker. I consider it therapy!

Scrap room?
I have converted an extra bedroom into my scrapbook room :-D I love having things out and ready to use at a moments notice. I have started making cards now that I do not pack everything away when I'm done.

Crops/classes?
Yes I have attended lots of crops and classes. I really enjoy scrap-booking weekend retreats (there is the therapy :winkb: again)

I can stay up all night to scrapbook! I drink lots of water and partake in some pomegranate hard lemonade when needed. I have a group of friends that like to scrapbook together and that makes for a really great weekends.

Re: ***New Cherry Questionairre***
How did you find ACOT??
I've known about ACOT for years. I received the email from the site for some time, just never joined the message board.

What technique would you like to learn? I'm a pretty clean and simple scrapbooker. No new techniques.

How many photos do you usually place on a layout? 3 or 4 most of the time, more when I have them.

Are you into digital or paper layouts? PAPER

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? Grandson layouts. I create his albums.

Do you have your own scrap room? Yes.

Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? 12 crops a year and 3 or 4 retreats a year.

Re: ***New Cherry Questionairre***
How did you find ACOT?? A pin from Pinterest lead me here.

What technique would you like to learn? I am working up my courage to try inks and stamps. It just seems like so much can go wrong.

How many photos do you usually place on a layout? I probably average 6, but I have done layouts with one photo and a layout with 42.

Are you into digital or paper layouts? Paper.

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? I just finished a Halloween album that starts at my 15 year old daughters first Halloween and is current with 2012's pages! I think I an going to tackle Easter's next. I did not start scrapbooking until 4 years ago, so I have a lot of catching up to do.

Do you have your own scrap room? Not a room, per say, but I have a dedicated scrap space. I share it with the washer and dryer. But I can leave my things to sit in progress, and make a mess that I don't have to clean up before dinner.

Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? There was a local store that I went to crops at. Kind of a novelty since I live in a very small town. But it has become a victim of the economy and is no longer there. I have to supplement the learning curve somehow, so I am glad websites like this exist!

What gives you the creeps? I am pretty high anxiety, so there are many things.

Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? I can go either way. I am a planner, so I can have 10 pages done by 9am, or not start until 11pm and burn the midnight oil.

What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage? Vanilla vodka and orange crush or coffee.

[highlight=#ecf3f7]How did you find ACOT??[/highlight][highlight=#ecf3f7] [highlight=#NaNNaNNaN]from an online swap group www.iasst.forumotion.net It's a Scrapbooking Swap Thing.

[/highlight]
[/highlight][highlight=#ecf3f7]What technique would you like to learn? [highlight=#NaNNaNNaN]I don't currently have a desire to learn any certain new technique--well, maybe how to color with alcohol ink markers, but I can't commit to the high price of them--I know if I start, I'll want EVERY color.

[/highlight]
[/highlight][highlight=#ecf3f7]How many photos do you usually place on a layout? [highlight=#NaNNaNNaN]I usually do 3 on a one-page layout and 6-8 or so on a two-page layout.

[/highlight]
[/highlight][highlight=#ecf3f7]Are you into digital or paper layouts? [highlight=#NaNNaNNaN]Paper! I love cutting and gluing!

[/highlight]
[/highlight][highlight=#ecf3f7]Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? [highlight=#NaNNaNNaN]Both! I don't get to do many in real life, because it's hard for me to leave the 3 kiddos all day. I have done a few online crops with IASST (www.iasst.forumotion.net).

[/highlight]
[/highlight][highlight=#ecf3f7]What gives you the creeps? [highlight=#NaNNaNNaN] I don't like when people stand too close to me in a line. It's like most people think they can make the line go faster or something if they are breathing on the person in front of them.

[/highlight]
[/highlight][highlight=#ecf3f7]Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? [highlight=#NaNNaNNaN]I am more of a night-owl, but with a little one that likes to get up early, I have to get to bed early myself!

Re: ***New Cherry Questionairre***
How did you find ACOT?? I needed somewhere to shop after the store/mb I used to frequent closed a couple of years ago. I've been shopping but not really posting on the board. It's nice to be here, and have a "home" again. :)

What technique would you like to learn? Nothing really - I just need to not be intimated (and more patient) for things like mists, and stickles, and stamping on my LO's.

How many photos do you usually place on a layout? Anywhere from 1 - 7. Really it depends. I'm typically a 2 page LO kind of girl.

Are you into digital or paper layouts? Paper. Only paper.

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? I'm a chronological scrapper (are there any of us left?) - and so I'm working on 2011. I think I'm up to June - so Charleston trip, Pennsyltucky trip, summer fun I guess you could say.

Do you have your own scrap room? Yes!

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

What gives you the creeps? The word moist (yes, I just shivered). (and spiders and snakes, and creepy crawlies)

Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? Early Bird.

What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage? Beer, just give me a good old beer in a bottle, and I'm a happy girl.
