ACOT Message Board

 I am so sorry I didn't start this in the morning (hectic day already )
I owe you big time Renee!!

I chose Renee for a Meet & Greet because she is such a wonderful person. She's so sweet, nice, funny and a great member of ACOT!
Here are some of my favorite layouts of hers and some questions to get started.


Love the summer colors and the bright blue background! Those strips behind the photo are great!


How great is this layout?!? Awesome pictures, the slant of everything is really cool and I love the colorfulness of it!


When and how did you get started scrapbooking?

Does your family appreciate your creativity and scrapbooks?

What other hobbies do you have and which is your favorite?

How did you and your hubby meet?

Do you spend more time on ACOT or MySpace?

Think you'll ever dare to try digi scrapping?

 Too funny!! I JUST got home...we've been running errands all morning.
Thanks, Shannon

When and how did you get started scrapbooking? I started when Adam and I got together. I really didn't officially become addicted until about 2002 when I was introduced to Creative Memories. I was a consultant for awhile but grew away from that because there are so many other fun supplies out there.

Does your family appreciate your creativity and scrapbooks? Yeah, for the most part. They never complaing when they get new pics of Alex Alex is 3 and he loves looking in the albums. I have a lot of family that lives in Florida so that's how he "remembers" them.

What other hobbies do you have and which is your favorite? I tried my hand at sewing (and I suck at it!) I like to bake and cook. Scrapbooking is my favorite, by far!

How did you and your hubby meet? We met at Yankee Candle in 1999! It was my first day at work and I was 3 hours late because I overslept. (I promise I'm not a loser! LOL) When I finally got there I was paired up with him. I asked him out about 2 weeks later.

Do you spend more time on ACOT or MySpace? [img]../../images/smilies/smile_wink_b_16.png[/img]to be honest...it's pretty equal. I have a tab open for both. 

Think you'll ever dare to try digi scrapping? I have thought about it and I really admire the digi layouts I see. I get a lot of inspiration from them! I am so computer illiterate though, I don't think I'd get it.

 Do you wish on stars? How about when the clock says 12:34 or 4:56, etc? I do wish on stars...not on the clock. As corny as it sounds some of my wishes came true.
