And here is an awesome set of new templates, Captivated by Stefanie Templates – By Captivated Visions
Rachel had a chance to visit with Stefanie and ask her some questions. Here is what Stefanie had to say:
Tell us about where you live and your daily routine? I live in Northern Virginia just about 30 minutes west of Washington DC. My daily routine…I usually get up around 6, have some coffee and wake up the kids. Disney channel on in the background and kids up…I just in the shower to get ready for my 8-5 job as an Administrative Assistant/Graphics Artist for a small Project management company. After work, I pick up the kids from school, make dinner, take the kids outside for walks and bike rides, baths and then wine and scrapping for mommy! Bed is usually around 10:30 and then get up the next day and do it all over again
How would your friends describe you? Outgoing, creative and fun!
How did you get involved with Digital Scrapbooking, did you Paper Scrap first? When Ben (my oldest son) was born in 2006, I needed to figure out a way to document all the pictures I was taking of his first year. I never got involved with paper scrapbooking because I wouldn’t be able to organize all of the stuff in my small house so I looked into something that involved using my computer. I somehow stumbled across a bunch of digital scrapbooking sites and that was the end of the discussion…I was hooked.
How often do you Scrap and how much time do you spend on your computer!? I try to scrap every night if possible but atleast 5 times a week for an hour or so before bedtime.
What is your favourite scrapping subject? My kids…hands down!
What other hobbies do you have besides scrapbooking? Reading, cooking, trying new wines, traveling and spending quality time with family and friends.
What is your workspace like where you create your Scrapbooking layouts? I have a small homemade desk in a nook in my living room. It’s sort of cluttered with pens, notebooks, and external hard drives. It also allows me to watch TV if I want to while scrapping or surfing the internet.
Link us up to your favourite layout and tell us why you love it!? My current favorite layout is Explore:
http://scrapmatters.com/gallery3/showphoto.php/photo/132777/ppuser/73
it’s a very different style for me, my layouts are usually white space and clustering. This one was a very simple layout but I LOVE how it turned out!
Do you blog? If so hook us up with your blog address! http://stefgonedigi.blogspot.com
Your favourite five random things beginning with F!!? Flemington (my cat), fudge, friends, facebook and family
We just love Stefanie to bits on the team, I hope you all enjoyed getting to know her better!
And last, but certainly not least, here is an awesome blog freebie, a photo cluster that matches Happy Snapper, made especially for you by our awesome guestie, Loni!
