My name is SHawna, I am 44 years old and have 2 grown boys. I have been married 22years and am very much in love. As a teenager I got involved in photography, I loved taking pictures of my boys as they were growing up, and yes they got so sick of it but I have fabulous pictures now. I don't do much picture taking anymore I love the camera but I haven't found a muse. My husband and I just took a vacation to Disney land in May, that was our very first trip to Disney and I just fell in love. I did take tons of pictures there, over 600 so I have plenty to scrap book.

I have been scrap booking for about 4 years but only recently learned technics and wish I could do all my albums over, but they are what they are.

I live in Hawaii on a resort called Ko Olina on the island of Oahu, my husband and I have been in the condo management field for the better part of 15 years. We get to meet people from all over. My husbands not so much a people person but if I get the chance I will stop and talk to visitors and find out where their from and what their town, country, and life style is like.

ATC cards are now one of my favorite things, I just received my first two this week, I had no idea what I was getting into so I am sorry about the lack of effort I put into my first two I sent out,

I have a cat named Tinker, he was a wild cat that as a kitten my husband befriended and he is now our baby.

My favorite colors are royal blue and purple. everybody knows if I have the chance purple will be in what ever I am giving to them. I painted my bedroom one time a really deep purple with white trim, my husband hated it but he is so sweet he just says "what ever you want sweetie"

I just learned how to do the embossing with the heating tool, thats pretty cool to me. I don't have any embossing machines, I only have the cricket and I just got the silhouette machine, we will see how that goes, I trying to figure out the program and the capabilities still.

About myself, I am 5 foot and 3/4 inches tall, which is something I was just corrected on, all my life I thought I was 5'2, when your this short every inch counts and this was a bummer for me. LOL I am willing to try any form of media and love learning how to use different ones.

I look forward to swapping with everyone!
