CT: Hi Jolene!!! I am so happy you were free to do this!
Jolene: Hello! I'm so glad to be here!
CT: Let's see... why don't you tell us a little bit about yourself?
Jolene: Well I'm 25 years old, and I live in Central Florida with my husband of 5 years and our 3 little girls. Obviously... I'm a little bit of a digi-scrap addict!
CT: Well, I have to say I never knew you were another Central Floridian! lol So are Brooke and I, we are probably quite close.
CT: And I have to ask...what is the deal behind your forum name (mighttyjomomma) lol?
Jolene: Ha! I knew this was coming! I was in a mommy email loop when I was pregnant with my twins three years ago, and after seeing my belly pictures one of my friends nicknamed me that, and it just kind of stuck!
CT: How did you get into scrappin' and CTing?
Jolene: Well I actually started out making siggys for my friends, and a couple of my friends "crossed over" into the digital scrapbooking world and I thought to myself "How great!" because I am not very crafty at all, but I think digital scrap gives you more options and it's just so much more fun to play with! So I ended up giving it a try and now I'm 100% addicted!
CT: What do you spend your time doing when you aren't on the PC?
Jolene: Chasing around my three girls, ha! I try to keep them active outside, go to the park, we are huge Disney World junkies, bowling, just anything that's family friendly for kids under 5. I'm also a big movie buff! It actually makes me a little bit of a nerd because I'm known to quote movies -- often! But sshhh! Don't tell anyone!
CT: I hate to break this to ya... but this is an interview lol...so it might be too late! hehe
CT: Have you read any good books lately...anything you'd recommend?
Jolene: Well the lastest books I've read are Dr. Seuss books to my kids, haha! But in what's left of my spare time I read "Eat, Pray, Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert and I'm really enjoying it.
CT: Oh, I have to tell you! I totally love your LO titled "Tough Girl!" It is so adorable! Is she really a tough one, hehe?
Jolene: Thanks! That's my oldest, and she is definitely a tough girl. All of her cousins were boys until she came along and in her classroom at school I think there was one other girl so she has to keep her ground, ya know? Thankfully, she's not as rough and tough with her little sisters as she used to be!
CT: What has been your fav Pretty Pixel kit to work with so far?
Jolene: Definitely Feeling Like A Princess. It's got lots of swirlies and pink, and pink seems to dominate my house so I find it the easiest color for me to scrap with.
CT: Any behind the scene Pixel gossip we should know about? How do you like working with the team?
Jolene: We have a wonderful solid team! I'm very happy with the group of girls we've got and not to mention one heck of a designer!
CT: Awww...shucks! :)
CT: Do you have any advice for scrappers out there? Any little Jolene tricks up your sleeve?
Jolene: Just to keep at it, play around with your program a little and get familiar with what you can and can't do with your layouts. Don't be afraid to just really layer your elements and do what YOU think looks good. That's the trick, you're making these for your own memories so you should make it the way you like it.
CT: Thanks so much for being with us today, Jolene and sharing a bit about yourself with our Pixel Pals! :)
Jolene: No problem, thanks for having me!
