How did you find ACOT??   I honestly am not sure.  I have been papercrafting since 1994, and I stumbled on it through Google I believe.  I can say it became my favorite when the "cherry hunting" came about.  What can I say, it is fun  :greenwinkb:

What technique would you like to learn?  I want to learn more about Mediums - Gesso, Paints, so forth.  

How many photos do you usually place on a layout?  I go from one to three at most.  Here lately it is one or two. 

Are you into digital or paper layouts?  Strictly paper.  I have not gone to digital yet.

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)?  Doing a Camping Chipboard Album.  One of those ones where you do a little and stop a little but I am determined to finish this one!  Not put it off until the next Crop

Do you have your own scrap room?  Yes, as big as it is I am finding myself putting more and more into it.

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

What gives you the creeps?  Spiders!!!

Are you a night-owl or an early-bird?  A little of both.  Was more a night owl but seems as life is happening it is more an early bird. 

What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage?  Water or possibly a cup of hot tea.

Welcome to the board :)

Re: ***New Cherry Questionairre***
How did you find ACOT?? I don't really remember. I became a member years ago, but my gallery stuff is really old and more crafty then scrapbooking and cards.  Odd.  I should likely go and clean that up a bit.  

What technique would you like to learn?  Hmmmm, good question.  I am more of a CAS kinda person, so I don't do messy.  Although I have a whole closet full of the messy paints and sprays.  

How many photos do you usually place on a layout? Hmmmmm....good question.  I'll let you know when I start doing layouts again. 

Are you into digital or paper layouts? paper.  I love the feel of paper.  

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? Mostly cards and they are all in the gallery. 

Do you have your own scrap room? Yes, it is awesome.  My old one was pretty nice, but when we moved we hired someone to come and custom build my room. 

Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? Yes, I used to online crop all the time. Used to do the stay up late and all that fun stuff.  CKC was one of the first I went to.  Then I ran across someone that only lived about 30 minutes from me who worked for Coordinations Cardstock, we became fast friends.  She invited me to a girls scrap weekend before we even met in person.  Unfortunately she passed in a house fire a few years ago.  But I remain good friends with the others from our group, we are down to just 3 of us and live all across the country but still get together at least once a year.  

What gives you the creeps? snakes and mice, I don't do well with critters.  

Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? Both. It just depends on the day. 

What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage? Water, and if I'm feeling adult-is a top shelf cosmo.  

eta: I'm not really a new cherry but have had several year off.  So I feel new :) And I didn't see an old one, so maybe it was on the old site.

Re: ***New Cherry Questionairre***
How did you find ACOT??  I found ACOT when I was looking for online places to purchase my craft supplies. 

What technique would you like to learn? I have been scrapbooking for over 45 years. so I stay up to date on techniques that interest me. At the moment I do not have anything on my radar.

How many photos do you usually place on a layout? I generally place 2 to 4 pictures per page. I have a gigantic family. I seldom (once or twice a year out if several hundred pages I scrapbook a year) place only one picture on layout.

Are you into digital or paper layouts? Mostly I do paper layouts, but do enjoy do books for family gifts in digital books.

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)? I am working on some outdoor pages of my Grandson from summer of 2016.

Do you have your own scrap room? I have a recently remodeled my wonderful craft room.  More cupboards, large butcher board counter top, more lighting, and lots of organizing!!

Have you ever been to a crop, either online or in real life? I go to 4 to 6 weekend crops every year. I attend multiple day crops that are generally for charity.  I also do online crops online. However, my favorite way to scrapbook is with my BFF Doni.  We each have Portal and turn it on to visit and craft in our own room.  It's like being with her every day.  Generally, we craft in the mornings, then do our chores and other things later in the day.

What gives you the creeps? I am very sensitive to touch. So it I touch something I didn't realize, it just gives me shivers.  It also means I do not do very many "messy" type crafts or pages. Can't stand to touch it.

Are you a night-owl or an early-bird? I tend to be an early bird.

What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage? I tend to drink Coke for any reason.

Re: ***New Cherry Questionairre***
How did you find ACOT??

* I actually learned of ACOT years ago as a member of a parenting support subgroup for scrapbookers, but have never looked at the forums before.

What technique would you like to learn?

* I am very interested in learning more about quilling.

How many photos do you usually place on a layout?

* 1-4, depending on the subject, or whether it is a single or double page layout

Are you into digital or paper layouts?

* Paper, though I'm interested in finding a good digital program, as well.

What page/theme are you working on right now (or did you complete most recently)?

* I have been working on two paper bag albums.

Do you have your own scrap room?

* Yes! My fiance recently decided I needed more space for my hobbies, so he moved his desk from the office to the living room so I could have the whole room for myself.

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

* Yes. I try to attend a local crop that is held quarterly by a local group.

What gives you the creeps?

* Umm... spiders, snakes and cockroaches. And rats. Especially rats. Not domesticated ones, but the kind that live in your walls, bringing fleas and disease, who climb on counters and have no regard or fear for people living there. *shudders*. Yes, there is a story there.

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

* I'm a night owl by nature, but an early bird by necessity.

What is your favorite "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" beverage?

* anything fruity or carbonated.

How did you find ACOT?? 
discovered ACOT when I was looking for online stores to purchase scrapbook supplies in 2012.

What technique would you like to learn?
I would like to do more mixed media, but I'm impatient to let things dry properly and lazy to get all the supplies out.

It varies, but most of my traditional 12x12 layouts only have 1 photo.

Are you into digital or paper layouts?
Paper. I've never tried digital.

I'm currently working on my daughter's first year album from 2017. I'm also still scrapbooking my wedding from 2014! I'm very behind. 😔
