Oooooh how psyched am I?? Muy psyched!!!

Okay, on to the questions:

How long have you been digital scrapbooking? I started dabbling about 5 months ago. I had done some hybrid, and thought I'd never do all out digi, but decided I wanted to include some in my upcoming book, so I began to explore a bit. Then about a month ago, I saw some of Anna de Heidmann's work (rubia's) and was intrigued by how she integrated the best of digital with great products.

What size do you scrapbook the most? 12x12!

What do you think your scrapping style is? Graphic, clean, focus on the story.

What motivated you to begin scrapbooking in the first place? i saw Lisa Bearson on Oprah 5 years ago, and I thought, "oh, that looks like fun" so i bought some construction paper and an exacto blade (yes, really) and started gluing photos. About a week later I discovered 2peas and realized that i was doing it ALL WRONG. I was totally hooked.

How has your style changed from when you first began scrapping? For the first couple of years, my style was all over the place, and I mean ALL OVER the place. I tried everything, bought everything, and mostly ended up very frustrated. I finally realized that for me, the story is everything. Well, almost everything. I still love a good clean design, so that's where most of my energy goes when I scrap.

Three all-time favorite designers? Ooooh that's hard hard hard. For multiphoto layouts, I love Amanda Probst. For clean and graphic, I love Celeste Smith. For wow digital effects, Anna De Heidmann. ..

Three all time fave Designer Digitals products,links please. You're trying to torture me now. Just three??? Hmmmmmm.......

1. Grunge Overlays 2 by Katie Pertiet. I love #1 too, just haven't bought them...yet/..
2. Watery Brushes and Stamps by Katie Pertiet These brushes have so many uses and potential. I find myself using them a LOT.
3. Krafty Ledger Paper pack by Katie Pertiet....I just bought this pack, but I know I am going to love since before this was in the shop, I used to take a sheet of Katie's Naturally krafty and layer one of her Ledger grid brushes over it...so this saves me a step

I also love all of Jesse Edwards' paper packs.

What camera do you use? Canon Eos Rebel

What software do you use to scrap? Photoshop CS

What is your favorite color? To scrap with, probably kraft and blues.

Do you listen to a music when you scrap? I always mean to, but then I get started scrapping and forget to turn on itunes!!

What is your favorite snacks while scrapping? I don't snack when I scrap. I usually get so involved in what I'm doing that DH has to come over and tell me to eat.

Who is your 3 digital scrapping buddy? Well, I have one buddy in NYC who digiscraps, and she comes over sometimes and we mostly gab. Online, I like to share with Paula Gilarde, Debbie Hodge and a few other inspirational girls. But mostly, i just browse the DD gallery and drool.

Where would your dream vacation? Hawaii for sure. I've never been there, but it looks pretty perfect. Except for the volcanoes, which Luca always reminds me of.

What do you want to do right now? Take a nap. But I always want to take a nap. Then I'd want to scrap. I call it my Nap-Scrap Combo Platter. Perfect.

this is such a wonderful layout. Julian is going to love it in a few years --- he'll be cracking up over his 2-year-old intelligence.
