Short bio: Hi, I am Corrie. I live with my dear hubby and three active girls in the 'burbs of Atlanta, Georgia. I have been scrapbooking for a couple of years, ever since two large plastic tubs jammed full of photos started laughing at me. I bought four sheets of paper, blue Thickers, some double-sided tape, and a scrapbook magazine, and I haven't look back since! Now scrapbooking is my way to relax, to stretch muscles in my brain that tend to be dormant in my number crunching job, and a great reason to spend my time with my friends. Other than scrapbooking, I enjoy being at the beach, photography, and reading. Being a part of the American Crafts Design Team is a dream and I am truly honored!

Favorite thing to scrapbook: My girls. They always have some sort of craziness going on that I really can't help but snap pictures of and then scrapbook.

Favorite AC product: Hands down, it is Thickers. I love every style and color. I can't have enough. A close second are the bits and pieces, you know, the tags, buttons, brads, and fun extras in each line.

5 fun facts:
1) From the first sign of warm air until the 1st frost, I refuse to wear socks.
2) The beach is my favorite place to be. I dream of living close enough to smell salt air everytime I open my door.
3) My family will occasionally have a day in song where we have to sing everything to each other instead of saying it.
4) I am most creative and productive while scrapbooking alone, in my space, with no TV or music.
5) I would still rather talk on the phone verses texting, Facebook or email. I guess that is just leftover from my computer free teen years!
