From Hannahs blog - she was interviewed with five questions and I found the answers really cool so I thought it would be interesting to see what I thought about things – so I asked her to send me 5 questions…
1. I know you love scrapbooking. Tell us how you got started, and what inspires you to be creative.
I started scrapbooking in 2000 after seeing some of the layouts done by ladies in the genealogy group I belong to had done. I loved they way they had made it fun and interesting, because looking at photos in an album can be a little dull sometimes especially when you haven’t a clue of the what/why/who or how. I get my inspiration from the photos. I always start with the photos I want to scrap and then add the papers, etc. I am continually inspired by the talent I see on the internet – loads of fabulous ideas to steal 
I also admit I am inspired to continue when my friends and family make positive reinforcing comments about what I have chosen as my “life work’. And yes I call it this because when I am gone there will be this tremendous wealth of documented history for future generations.
2. Who is your role model?
I can’t say I have one as such, there are people who I admire and would love to have their strength of character and there are people who inspire me to look within for the good and best and most beautiful. I admire those who have
overcome obstacles and those who who encourage you to make the best of what you have and be happy.
3. What is your favourite quote?
Its in my blog at the moment – just love this…
The creative is the place where no one else has ever been. You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you’ll discover will be wonderful. What you’ll discover will be yourself.
Alan Alda
4. If you could invite THREE famous people (dead or alive) to dinner, who would they be?
Alan Alda – I have always admired this man, he is a fabulous comedian and I like his line of thinking about life.
Barack Obama – the man is living proof we can live our dreams!
John Lennon – it would make Leo a very very very happy man
5. Would you rather go to a movie at the cinema, or watch a DVD at home?
Easy – watch a DVD at home. I’m deaf (or hearing impaired to be politically correct) so when I go to the movies I miss to much of the dialogue and it can get frustrating. Watching at home – I have subtitles, microwave popcorn, a pause button and no line for the toilet
Now, if you would like ME to interview YOU, here’s what to do:
1. Leave me a comment saying, “Interview me.”
2. I will email you 5 questions.
3. You answer the questions on your blog.

Yay, thanks for playing along, Julie!
I loved your answers. That quote is awesome! And I think your dinner party would be very interesting with those 3 guests
Yep, a DVD at home is pretty good when you consider the fantastic “pause button” … whenever we watch a complex kinda movie with my Dad we are forever pausing it to help him “catch up” with the story, hehe!

Enjoyed reading your answers here, Julie.
Yep, I would rather watch a DVD at home too – where I can lie down if I want to, pause the machine for a loo break lol, and eat whatever I like.

You’ve been very busy! Love the real life photos you’ve taken. Hey, I haven’t forgotten about that disc…. I’ve just been really rotten at actually getting it done. It’s now on my written list of things to do this week, so you should have something in the post shortly.
