How did you find ACOT??
I shopped at Stickers Galore when I first got into scrapbooking, after doing a web search for stickers. When I saw the info in the shoppe about the new message board they were starting, I thought I'd check it out and the rest, as they say, is history!
What technique would you like to learn?
I want to learn to use GIMP, the free digi program, so I can teach my students.

I have been to both, several times.
What gives you the creeps?
Spiders and cobwebs, snakes, dead animals of any kind, some horror movies...you know the kind that are too believably real.
Are you a night-owl or an early-bird?
I'm a middle of the day gal:winkb: I generally crash by midnight and I hate getting up before 8:00 a.m. (although when I am at school, I have to drag my butt out of bed by 6:15...which means I fall asleep in my recliner by 10:00 p.m.)
What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage?
A nice glass of wine...white or red, as long as it isn't too dry.

[killarney_rose]

Well hmmm..... I've answered this on May 5th so I only would change one thing.

I've used a transparency with great results so I would have to change my technique to learning more then what I know about stamping. I've taken one beginner class, but would love to take more!

......I'm hoping for a stamping class at the upcoming online crop!

I'm not a summer newbie to the board but I guess I'm a spring newbie to the board.

Oh, and it has been fun reading all of the answers to the questions as sus put it, us "geezers" Too funny!

[craftyfool]

How did you find ACOT?? I heard about an "Online Crop" and was sure it was insane but had to try it...I think the address popped up in discussion at another mb.

What technique would you like to learn? I'd really like to know how to get my LOs to "pop" more.

How many photos do you usually place on a layout? I put as many as I can fit that fit my theme. If I only have 1...that's all I use. But if I have 10, I try to get them all on!

Are you into digital or paper layouts? Paper definately. But I'm itching to try some digital soon.

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? Playing in the park...just finished 2 and still have one to do.

[jodcold]

Wow! I am considered an oldie here (I think just plain chatty, of course I am a half century old!).

How did you find ACOT?? I have been coming to the ACOT message board since the crop in November 2008. However, I've been visiting this site forever in the shopping section ever since it was Stickers Galore! I saw the online crop advertised somewhere online for November and it sounded interesting. I had so much fun that this quickly became the first site I check in the morning and the last one at night.

What technique would you like to learn? Can't think of any one thing. That is why I enjoy the challenges and the crops as I usually learn new techniques from them.

How many photos do you usually place on a layout? It varies depending on how many pix I have of the event. Usually I like to do several pix per page.

Are you into digital or paper layouts? Definitely paper. Although I have been known to type some of my journaling.

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? I have been working on ACOT challenges; but now that my mojo is returning there are so many projects I want to do-Halloween (especially with all the new product out there right now), an album about my doggie, a layout about my DS's first 100 mile bike ride, a fishing trip. So many projects, so little time!

Do you have your own scrap room? Yes, I am always in the process of re-organizing it though. But it is clean enough right now that I can work in it with no problem.

Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? I have been to 2 online crops here and am looking forward to the one at the end of this month. I missed most of the early spring crop here because my darn computer was broke. I have been to tons of real life crops and scrapping retreats. My favorites were the overnighters; but haven't been to many lately. I prefer to crop at home now. I have a whole scrapbook dedicated to crops I've attended!

What gives you the creeps? Snakes, rats, mice, scary movies.

Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? Definitely a night owl!

What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage? Anything that is a frozen tropical drink-Coco Locos, Strawberry Margaritas, Strawberry Daiquiris, Pina Coladas! Get that tiki bar open!
