February's Here Already...

We would like to thank those of you who took the time and care to comment and answer our most recent question, "What kind of Scrapbooker are you?". It was interesting to see how elaborate your answers were. We greatly appreciate your feed back.


We finally buckled down, couldn't decide on just one winner so we picked three. They have all been notified and will be enjoying their prize (see photo on left) soon. We wanted to share their answers, so here they are...

... I am definitely the type of person that likes things put away and doesn't do well with clutter. However, I am also a person who needs to see things to remember what I have!! My husband and I moved into our new house a year ago, we chose to build again because I needed a bigger scrapbook room, well ok, the kids needed more play room as well, but lets be honest!!! I started with a blank slate and a list of things our room needed to accommodate. I have lived in this house for a year and I have redesigned it twice already!! I am not sure if there will ever be a storage system that completely works for me but I can tell you that my scrapbook room is my happy place. Its peaceful, calm, creative and somehow has the ability to re-energize me, kinda like the oxygen they pump into Vegas casinos!! - Laurie S.

...I am a cropper that spends far too much time organizing, not enough time cropping. My 13x13 boxes are labelling almost identical (to Cindy's as shared in the newsletter). I used the book called "Scrapbooking Freedom". I forget the author but she has a system that helps you organize your printed photos and supplies. Live by it now. I am at the point where I can quickly get a photo, find product and find an idea to scraplift. Life is good. Now if I could find the time to get to your kits that I have matched with photos. Sigh. - Gwen M.

...I am not at all like Christy. I need my scrapbook room/art studio to be very neat. My A type personality needs control over my surroundings. And I am very lucky, my room is huge and everything has it's space were it belongs. I need the room to be tidied after every project or I just can't get my creative juices. I have six huge cupboards that I bought at Idea and everything to do with scrapbooking is stored in them. Inside each cupboard, everything is in scrapbook cases or a plastic organizer. Paper is organized by subject matter, colour or project material. Stamps, inks, flower, sticker, riboons, buttons etc. are all organized in their own plastic containers. If my room is not tidy it drives me crazy and I can get really crabby.

But I will confess that my biggest problem is that I sometimes buy the same thing over and over again because I can't remember what I have already!!! But really, is that a problem? I really don't think so, a girl can't have enough scrapbooking supplies can she? - Debra M.

Congratulations ladies for your winning answers! We hope you enjoy your prizes.

We would love you to leave your comments, on the question Debra raised -

"Can a girl ever have enough scrapbooking supplies?"
