Hi!My name is Christine and I have been married for 21 years to my husband who I have dated since we were both 13. I have three boys, ages 20, 16, and 15. I love spending time with my family.
I scrapbook a lot of my children's highschool things and they go to Mundelein High School. The school's main colors are red, silver and white and their mascot is a mustang horse.
My oldest son Ray, goes to college at the University of Whitewater Wisconsin, where he is a sophomore. He is majoring in teaching.
My 16 yr. old son Adam is a junior in highschool. He plays Volleyball and I have lots of scrapbooking to catch up on for him. He is also involved in the Mock Trial club which is where his team presents law suits and competes against other schools. It is a lot like a debate team. Our school came in second in state last year for the first time and Adam played the part of a lawyer in the trial! We love watching him present "his cases" and are so proud of him! Lawyer scrapbooking things have been very difficult for me to find!
My youngest son Ryan is 15 and he is 6 foot 6! He is of course big in basketball and even though he is just a freshman he has college coaches watching him as he starts his high school season! We are very excited for him. He loves basketball. I have even more scrapping to catch up on for him!
I have 3 dogs,I love them to death, but do not scrap them much. Can't justify it when I still have to catch up with the kids!
I love angels and inspirational quotes, fairies and poems! Celestial things are also a favorite of mine, stars, sky, clouds, etc. Willow tree angels are a major favorite of mine!
My friends all call me a princess because I am the only girl in my house and I made myself a room full of "girly-girl" things since I deserve it! LOL! They gave me a surprise "Princess Birthday" party last year and so I have started my own "Princess" scrapbook!
I look forward to swapping and sharing ideas with you all!
My hobbies are of course scrapbooking and I love any and all paper crafts!
I want to make a scrapbook for my husband for our 25th anniversary, 4 years away, of all of our pictures, cards, poems etc. Since we have been together since we were 13 I have a ton of stuff! I can always use embellishments for that book. I would especially like things that say "soul mate", "Forever Together", etc.
The only scrapbooking things I do not really like are the retro and vintage themed things. I love everything else!
I own a cricut expression so I can make my own die cuts and don't buy any anymore. I love my cricut!
I use stickles, glue dots, primas, anything at all I can get my hands on! I like brads, eyelets are O.K. but not a favorite. Stickers and rub ons are fun, flourishes are so pretty!
I just recently got started with Digital Scrapboking and have fallen in love with the effect of adding embellishments to the digi pages, hybrid scrapbooking I think it is called! All of these things are so addicting! Scrapbooking is my only habit though so why not?!
I also have an inspirational book started with all my favorite quotes and sayings in them as they relate to events in my life.
I love any and all papercrafts!
I also enjoy reading, historical romances are my favorite. I also love Sylvia Browne. I don't agree or believe in everything she writes or talks about, but I do find her very intersting!
I like doing puzzlebooks, wordsearches, fill ins and general game books as I watch TV to relax!
I also love watching movies! I love Julia Roberts and Richard Gere, together in movies and seperately! Runaway Bride, Pretty woman, First Knight,and Sommersby are just a few of my favorites!
I love to watch Roseanne, Still Standing, Reba and of course the Lifetime movie channel! HGTV, Carol DuVall and DIY Scrapbooking are my favorites too!
flintstones & jetsons!
I absolutely LOVE peppermint scented things, especially chapstick and candles.
Bath and Body works has a great new body wash, lotion, pillow mist, and bath soak that I just fell in love with also! Vanilla and chamomile! It is for sleep and relaxation! I'll let you know if it works!
I generally hate wearing socks but my favorite thing in the winter is wearing "sock slippers." A friend gave me some for my birthday and I loooovvvve them! They are like a pair of boots, they come up to my calf and are furry, nice and warm!
My favorite colors are pink, purple, black and silver. Glittery colors are my favorite. I do not like neon colors!
I like to color and love fun markers, especially glittery ones and gel pens too. My favorite cartoons are the FLINTSTONES, JETSONS and I love CASPER THE FRIENDLY GHOST. My alltime favorite Disney movies are Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid and all of the Shrek movies. What can I say? Some of us never grow up!
Scrapcat-Cassi :)!
I STILL LOVE THE FLINTSTONES!
