What themes do you like working on? Don't have a clue. I have an album for each child and one for DH's Navy Career, they are in boxes still in the plastic.

What kind of themes you don't like to work on? I don't think I will be using a lot of Disney or pink frilly pages but everything else is fair game

What embellishments to you like to use? I have a collection of all sorts of things going but most of it is new to me.

What embellishments you don't like to use? I don't like feathers.

What colors do you like? Purple is a favorite but I like all colors

What are the colors you don't like? There is no color I do not like

Do you own any cutting machines/tools? Cricut Expression (see my inventory here), Cuttlebug (See my inventory & wishlist here), Fiskars Shape Boss, Stampin Up Scallop Oval Punch, Large Oval Punch, Heart Punch Flower Punch and the matchbox die.

NOTE: If you are swapping with me and I have something you would like me to cut just let me know!


What product/manufacturer do you like to use the most?Don't have a favorite.

What product/manufacturer do you like the least?I don't have one I dislike. I don't know enough of them to dislike them.

What item(s) would you like to have in your stash that you don't have now?

I love studio G stamps and the little ink pads and chalks, and glitter glues that go with them. I have a wishlist for those in the Stamping Forum on page 4:
http://www.acmoore.com/forum/yaf_postst2839_Studio-G-Wish-List.aspx

I can ALWAYS ALWAYS use cardstock, paper and pre-folded cards & envelopes and I love idea pages cause I am still in the monkey see monkey do stage of paper crafting.

I would like more templates for my shape boss, I only have the sampler sheet that came with it.

I would live more Sizzix & Cuttlebug dies & embossing folders. Even though I own a Cricut I find when I cut frilly ornate or small things they get eaten. So I would LOVE Sizzix / Cuttlebug Dies.

See my Cuttlebug inventory here)

And my Sizzix one here.


Tell use a little bit about your crafting style.I do a LOT of different things. Collecting items is a hobby in itself, getting motivated to use them is another story entirely!

What themes do you like working on?
I'm still not a theme scrapper. I do have to say though I might be soon starting another special travel scrapbook.

What kind of themes you don't like to work on?
Although I love DisneyWorld and want to make another trip, haven't been there in a couple of years - I don't particularly care for all the Disney themed items

What embellishments to you like to use?
I love anything that gives texture to a page or card. Flowers, ribbons, embossing - pop-dots, I love pop-dots

What embellishments you don't like to use?
My least favorite would probably be stickers, but then again there are some that I do like to use. I like the ones that are multi-layered (again, that dimensional look)

What colors do you like?
Blue and Green are my favorite colors, however, I love any of the fall colors - red orange, gold, browns

What are the colors you don't like?
I'm really not into pastels - But I have to admit my son's album was pastels and I loved it.

Do you own any cutting machines/tools?
I have a Cuttlebug and and old Sizzix. I also have a Coluzzel, EK Success Curvy Cutters, Fiskars Cutting System. I also have a stash of different shape and border punches.

What product/manufacture do you like to use the most?
I love my Club Scrap - everything is coordinated All the paper, ribbons, embellishments. The quality of the paper is excellent. I like Bazzil paper too - but I have to admit I'm a paper "snob" I don't even buy paper anymore unless it's something really different. I might add Anything Tim.

What product/manufacture do you like the least?
I don't think there is one that I don't like. But I don't like paper that flops over when you put some ribbon and embellishments on it.

What item(s) would you like to have in your stash that you don't have now?
I saw some new pens from Tim Holtz you fill them yourself - I think I would love to try them.

Tell use a little bit about your crafting style.
I'm bascially a pretty simple scrapper. My pictures are the main item on my pages but I do like to embellish with items that add to the theme of the page.

Deana, that is why I created it. I had Winnie and could not figure out what to get her since that was the 2nd time I had her.... I know it was sneaky....

I probably should add a wishlist.
