Star Member Katie!!

Hello everyone! Workout #7 is posted below and here is a chance to learn about one of our fantastic DT Members!
Katie is one of DT Members! She is a great gal that is full of life and we love having her here at ScrapFIT!! Here is a chance to get to know her a little more...
1. When did you start scrapbooking? I started scrapping in 2001 right before we moved into our new house. A girlfriend dragged me to a CM party saying it was "up my alley" and I was hooked!
2. What made you want to scrapbook? It was a way to for me to creatively use my pictures to tell our story, our history.
3. How ofter during the week do you scrapbook? How much do you get done in an average week? I try to scrap on Sundays, so at least a few hours. I usually get 1 to 5 pages done a week.
4. What is your favorite subject to scrap? My girls are the most interesting and beautiful subjects I scrap.
5. What is your favorite tool? Right now my CTMH distressed is my favorite tool. Most of my pages have something all roughed up with it.
6. What are you top 3 paper manufacturers? Loving Fancy Pants, Sassafrass Lass, and Prima lately. But that changes all the time!
7. When working with cardstock do you like smooth or textured? Definitely textured.
8. Name a few scrappy places "play" when on the net? ScrapFreak, ScrapGal, and I find lots of inspiration on lots of scrapping & photography blogs.
9. Did you or do you play any sports? I am an avid runner and I also take a Hip Hop class. Growing up I did cheerleading and played softball.
10. Are you an outdoor person? You know, I want to be honest, I am not an outdoor person. I like to cuddle up with a good book, but that so isn't my life!
11. What outdoor activities do you enjoy?
My family is very active outdoors spending time together hiking, walking, going to the beach or lake, and biking. Living in a town that has several lakes and is 30 minutes from the ocean and the mountains makes it hard to stay inside.

12.favorite vacation spot? Chatham, Massachusetts (Cape Cod). It such a nice little town on the coast, with bike trails and lots of great seafood.
13. What is the last movie you saw on the big screen? UP. I highly recommend it to children and adults, alike!
14. What is the next movie you can't wait to see? New Moon. All of my friends have a little Twilight obsession & I love to feed into it.
15. Do you have your own scrapbook space/room? Describe it.
I do have a small scrappy space in the back of my family room. I have two desks (one extra so a friend can scrap with me), a small set of shelves, and drawers. It is a simple, but efficient space. But....I am getting a new scrappy space in 3 weeks. A whole room unto itself. I have started buying furniture and goodies for it. Found an old library card catalog & bookshelves & an old pedestal table. I am hoping to mesh a little shabby chic into it! I'll be sure to post pics on my blog. :)

I am planning on making a donation since I won't be in town the weekend of the run. The twist to my challenge is....
