November Featured Scrapper: Trace Geworsky

We would like to welcome our November Featured Scrapper, Trace Geworsky, to M2R!!! We are thrilled to have her as our featured member this month and are so excited to get to know her and see her fabulous stuff!! Here's a little more info about Trace!

Name: Trace Geworsky

Family: Hubby of 6 years (who supports this addiction) and a very cute yet mischievious son, Si, who just turned 4. He is the main cause of this addiction, as I usually scrapbook his daily "adventures."

Three words to describe me: KRAZY!!!!! outgoing, and loving.

How I found M2R: Actually on pubcalls (and I am very glad I found M2R...there seems to be a very talented bunch of scrappers on the site).

My favorite part of the M2R website (besides the board): Where do I start?? I have only been registed for a short while, but it has already made quite the impression on me. Very friendly group of people, awesome challenges, and trendy, great products (sorry I couldn't limit it to just one).

How my style has changed since I began scrapbooking: DRASTICALLY!!!! I started out with stickers and decorative scissors, and now I have moved on to an actual style and my pages look a bit more planned...lol. I also have discovered a real passion for this "hobby."

How much time I spend each week scrapping: Minimum of 12 hours scrapping, but if I would factor in the amount of time I spend on the computer chatting on scrapping forums, posting layouts, etc that would be a scary number!!

My level of scrapbooking addiction: INSANE!!!! I live and breathe scrapbooking. It started with a hobby, turned into a passion, and now it's an obsession as it has to be a daily part of my life.

My current scrapbooking style: Eclectic/freestyle!

The scrapbooking trend I really love right now: Stickles!!! I can not get enough of them(even though I currently only own 4 colors).

The scrapbooking trend I am not so crazy about: Gold charms, I don't know what it is about them, but I just do NOT like them...lol!

Who is your favorite manufacturer today: Toss up between Rusty pickle and Daisy D's.

When do you do your best work, day or night: I am so not a morning person, but I get my best work done between 6 and 7:30 am while I am waiting for kids to get dropped off at my house.

What was your latest scrappy splurge: Crop-a-dile and alcohol inks. I do have my eye on the bind it all machine though.

My favorite layout and why I love it: This is a very easy answer. My favorite is a layout called "Grow together" I just created it about a week ago and it tells the story of my son waving out the window to his sister and brothers that are in Heaven. It was so innocent and so sweet. It was quite theuraputic to scrap about it.

My dream day: Well, the best weekend of my life so far was this past October when I went to the crop for kids event in Winnipeg (I spent the full weekend attending classes with instructors like Leah Fung). My dream day would be spent taking classes and hanging out with Elsie Flannigan & C.D. Muckolsky!

Here are some layouts from Trace...
