ELAINE!
What is your middle name? Elaine, my first name is Deborah in case anyone would like to know.:)
What do you consider your best accomplishments to this day? Raising my 2 children, they are both amazing young adults now and I am so proud of them.
When do you scrap the most? Mornings and weekends.
Do you prefer to scrap alone or with others? Alone - because I get more done but I do like to scrap with others occasionally.
What is your favorite food indulgence? Ice cream, my favorite is Blue Bunny - Bunny Tracks.
Who is someone you admire? My sister. She has been my life mentor and my spiritual mentor, she has been through so many trials and is still going through many trials and I have watched her and learned from her my whole life. In spite of all her trials she continues to pour herself out to others and no matter how tough it gets she just pulls up her boot straps and keeps on going. She has taught me alot about giving and faith and so much more.
What scrapbookers do you find talented and more fitted to your style?
Stacy Julian & Becky Higgins, both have simple style and they get alot of photos on a LO.
Describe your scrap space in 3 words: organized, small, clean. I have to keep it this way because it is located in the guest bedroom right off my kitchen.
What is on your to-do list? Short term I need to get my grandkids albums updated, do more work on my kids albums and start an album of my husband and a heritage album for his side of the family.
What is your favorite scrap store? Scrapbook Heaven in San Antonio.
What is your favorite scrap line? That's a tie - Bo Bunny/My Minds Eye.
What do you check out first when you come to HYWWP? I always go to the view posts since last visit - don't want to miss anything!
What are your favorite TV shows? Grey's Anatomy & LOST
What are your Top 5 Favorite movies? Where The Heart Is, Fried Green Tomatoes, You've Got Mail, The Notebook, Uncle Buck.
What are your Top 5 favorite books? The Bible, Where The Heart Is, Open House, The Year of Pleasures, The Rapture of Canaan.
Describe your fashion style. Casual, most of the time it's jeans & a top of some kind and flip-flops.
What is your favorite chore? Making my bed, it's quick, easy and I have pretty bedding so I enjoy it all made up.
What is your least favorite chore? Ironing.
Please help me welcome, Elaine!

She's my baby sister and I adore her (always have - well, maybe there were a few weeks when she was in puberty.. haha)... anyway, I'm just now reading this portion and I cried!!! Nobody in the world can lift me up like Elaine. She is such a gracious & merciful lady and always knows how to lend her shoulder and advice when I most need it. I'm so proud of her. She's raised two of the finest children you'd ever want to meet and they are such a blessing to her... she deserves it too. She's the only reason I started scrapbooking and I'm appreciative of that - even though, as you know, it's cost me a room in my house and a good bit of $$$. Aw, but the memories I have saved now and the enjoyment it's given me. Love you sis.....
