Artist Interview: Adrienne (Scrapbooker)

I met Adrienne last year on TallyScrapper and we bonded over our shared birthday (the unfortunate getlostinchristmas Dec24th birthday to be exact.) Her scrapbooking style was so fresh and fun! Completely sassy. I instantly became a fan. I asked her to be my october interview and she agreed even though her schedule is a bit wacky at the moment. She also asked that i do another giveaway! She specifically asked that i give one of these:

andddd.....

Leave a comment to enter and i'll draw two random people this on Monday!:)

Enjoy getting to know Adrienne!:)

How did you discover scrapbooking?

OMG. Well, I was taking photography back in my sophomore year of high school (so, around 2003-2004, ha, that dated me didn't it??) and we had to make a 'photo journal' using the photos that we took for class and then adding some journaling and such to it. And of course. I just couldn’t hang with just the blank pages and everything so I had decided to head to the local craft stores to see if they had any cool stickers... and THEY did, SO MANY! I had a freaking hay-day! And from then on, I was addicted to scrapbooking product. I still didn’t really know that I was 'scrapbooking'. Then a few years later I started just going to Craft Warehouse and checking out all the stuff that they had there, and they told me about their scrapbooking club that they had every month. and then from then on, I was addicted! :D Officially a scrapbooker!

Do you belong to any scrapbooking communities? If so, give 'em a shout out J

I do, I belong to Tally Scrapper :D Other than that, I have joined many and abandoned many to be honest. But I just keep going back to tally! :D

Do you have an MO when you scrap? Do you follow a particular ‘pattern’?

Lately I kinda try and keep it simple and that makes me pretty happy. Sometimes I go all out and do something crazy. But I am usually very happy with simplicity. especially now-a-days when my mojo is non existant...

Crop or scrap alone?

I really enjoy crops to be around people, because it is just a blast... you know but I seriously HATE packing things up to go somewhere to scrapbook! I don’t feel whole when I have to figure out what to bring, and then I get all brain farty to where... I just don’t know what to do at all. So I definitely really like being at home to scrapbook its much less stressful to me!

What colors or color combinations absolutely make you swoon?

I am pretty much an all kinds of color kinda girl. I like all colors together. Lately I have been liking this color blue ... And my fav. color used to be green. I had green everything and I wanted to use it on everything... But lately... I am not sure what I like a ton. I have been gravitating towards like a dandelion yellow, and rust orange...

What can u absolutely not scrap without?

Home. I need to be at home. I never get anything done that I love when I am trying to scrap other places. If I ever am able to host a crop. It is GOING TO HAVE to be at my house!!

Fave manufacturers?

When My mojo is gone I am mad at all manufacturers for a time... LOL. But lately I havent really seen anything that really makes me want to buy it. But I could always use American Crafts, Pink Paislee, Hambly, and Theresa Collins.

Design team shout-outs?

PINK NINJAS FOR THE WIN. :D

Any other crafty hobbies? Any you’d like to try?

I have been trying my hand at embroidery. I am liking that so far. I would love to be able to sew something... lol Like, not by hand. I would love to have a sweet ass sewing machine!

What do you love best about the fall?

Um. Being able to wear jeans, I suppose. But I generally don’t like fall much. I like warm. And fall just tells me that winter is about to start. And it is going to go by too quickly... And then It is going to snow. And then... it will be lame. LOL

Chocolate or chips?

Chocolate... well.. both. Chocolate when I am on my monthly thing... and then chips every other time! :D LOL
