Sherry: You're So Cool

I did a stamp contest awhile back and Sherry Cartwright was one of the winners. I've loved her stuff ever since -- she uses the stamps in really creative ways, it's cool. Here's a little more about this Hawaiian-Japanese-who-claims-to-be-Texan who got married on the 4th of July in a drive-through chapel in Las Vegas (according to plan) and who coined the term "scramping" (scrapbooking + stamping). 

Listening to: My daughter scream at the top o' her little lungs from the other room ("my dooooce is weeeeeeeakin"—her juice cup was leaking), the dishwasher and some old Devo the hubby left on LimeWire
Obsessed with: My hair (and it keeps getting shorter!), patterned paper, buckets
Childhood ambition: I drew a picture in elementary school of myself as an ice skater; I was smitten by Dorothy Hamill and loved watching her skate. The funniest part? I couldn’t/can't skate at all—not ice, roller, rollerblade.
Fondest memory: Family times growing up—picking weeds and  rocks around our property, going bowling every Saturday morning. Such simple times.
Guiltiest pleasure: The dollar store. I love that place and have found some awesome stuff there.
Biggest challenge: Finding guilt-free creative time amongst all the day’s chores and activities.
Have never: Jumped from an airplane, rode in a helicopter (but work with them every day), had a facial or watched American Idol
Perfect day: Toes sunk in the sand, waves crashin' the shore and the sun shining—the beach!
Last purchase: Besides my haircut this afternoon, I stopped at the grocery for cold cuts, cheese and rolls for sub sandwiches. Scrappy—yesterday I purchased some Heidi Grace Papers and some more grid papers.
Favorite movie: Grease.  Ha, that is cheesy, I know, but I can remember loving that movie in my teen years. Loved it.
