Hello, my name is Joey Manwarren.

I am 38 years old. I am the mother of three young children, all of whom I homeschool. I have been married to Brent, the love of my life, for 15 years. I have a degree in Elementary Education, and I am addicted to Thin Mint cookies.

I have been digital scrapbooking for over five years. I tried my hand at paper scrapping for several years before becoming obsessed with digi.

I started scrapping because, like most scrappers, I want to remember and record my family's life events, both big & small.

I generally scrapbook daily, and I find the time to scrap by first completing all my other motherly/life duties. I prefer to scrap guilt-free and not worry about what I should be doing instead of scrapping. Scrapping is my reward at the end of a hard day's work!

I find that I am most often inspired to make a page when a small life moment needs to be recorded. Over the years, I have realized that my family and I tend to cherish the little moments in life. The small moments tend to hold the biggest life lessons.

One of my go-to techniques is keeping things simple. There are times when I like to get heavy-handed with embellishments, but most of the time I only add embellishments that help tell my story.

I could NOT scrapbook without the following products/tools:
My camera
My computer & Photoshop
Chipboard alphas
Drop shadows
Stitching

What was the last page you created about? The last page I created was a page about my son & husband's trip to watch the University of Kansas play basketball. This page is a highlight page for my photo of the day book.

How and where do you store/display your completed pages? Since I am a digi scrapper, I tend to print all of my books in a 12" x 12" bound book.

Where do you shop for scrapbooking supplies? Most of my digi supplies come from Designer Digitals or Anna Aspnes.

What page size do you generally scrap? I generally scrap 12" x 12".

If you had to stick to three fonts for the rest of your life, what would they be? CK Marissa (handwriting font), American Typewriter and Century Gothic.
