Teacher Top Ten with Donna

TEN "essentials" that I cannot scrapbook without:

  • my itunes play list
  • my Epson Printer
  • a cinnamon candle burning (did you know the scent of cinnamon is supposed to promote creativity and clarity? I like to think so anyway!)
  • Kokuyo Dot 'n' Roller adhesive (my quest is over!)
  • Jelly Bellies in my candy jar
  • photos that inspire me to tell a story
  • pattern paper that I love (so many favorites)
  • Millennium journaling pens (in 4 sizes)
  • an organized work space
  • a plan for dinner

NINE words I love are:

welcome home, I love you, play with me, surprise!


EIGHT ways I find inspiration:

  • hiking in the woods
  • living everyday life with my family
  • pouring through magazines of all kinds ( I confess…I'm a junkie!)
  • sitting in my garden with a journal or a good book
  • running solo with great songs on my ipod
  • traveling to new destinations
  • visiting my favorite book, antique, and fabric stores
  • reading my favorite blogs

SEVEN things I love about my "every day" life …

  • Sunday - breakfast made by my husband (chocolate chip pancakes, anyone?)
  • Monday - Monday Sundaes, of course! (some days it's all about the food!)
  • Tuesday - studying, writing, and learning something new
  • Wednesday - "surprise someone" day (who doesn't love happy surprises?)
  • Thursday - staying up late to play in my studio
  • Friday - "In Focus Friday" on my blog (a photographic list of gratitude)
  • Saturday - the loudest, messiest, and most FUN day of the week at our house!

SIX places I'd love to visit before I die:

  • Alaska…in the summer by boat
  • My own cottage by the ocean
  • As many National Parks as possible
  • Africa….on a photo safari
  • Utah…with a bike and a backpack
  • My grandmother's house in Wales

FIVE things I do everyday, without fail:

  • tell my family that I love them
  • drink two cups of coffee with skim milk
  • read and write email and/or talk on the phone
  • something creative
  • count my blessings

FOUR stores/websites I frequent:

  • Target for everyday everything…love this store!
  • Anthropologie.com for inspiration in color and style…super cool!
  • Amazon.com for my growing "wish list" of must have reads.
  • Etsy.com to support buying "handmade"…handmade is good stuff.

THREE photos I love:



TWO decisions I've never regretted:

  • going on that hayride in college where I met the man I married…so glad I didn't stay home to "wash my hair" that day!
  • becoming a mama three times and discovering, in the process, what an amazingly fun and creative job parenting can be!

ONE additional and very important thing you should know about me is:

I love how the art of scrapbooking helps me live a life of creativity, awareness, gratitude, and FUN!
