#1. I am a Diet Pepsi-Powered Papercrafter… well, to be honest, everything I do is pretty much powered by Diet Pepsi; it’s my second addiction after papercrafting.
#2. I’m well aware of the fact that behind my back, people sometimes refer to me as the “Crazy Cat Lady”. I don’t really get it though, because I think you have to own at least one cat in every color to truly be “crazy”. I only have seven cats and two of those are black. Don’t people know that matching cats really only count as one?
#3. I hate peas, peanut butter, bananas and every kind of bean (except green beans)... I think there may be something wrong with me because of that. I gag when I make my grandsons peanut butter sandwiches and I always ask if there are beans in the chili, despite the strange looks I get for asking.
#4. I have two big, fat, spoiled Boer Goats, who are often dirty (they love to roll in sand) and I (my daughters as well) have been known to accept kisses from them on the lips. We also feed them animal crackers and wonder if that makes them cannibals. :-)
#5. I have a birthmark on the inside of my right arm, in the crease at the elbow. It is shaped like a heart. (It is very handy for telling my left from my right).
#5. I have a birthmark on the inside of my right arm, in the crease at the elbow. It is shaped like a heart. (It is very handy for telling my left from my right).
#6. I’ve trained my children to believe that cat hair is a condiment. In a house where even the dogs get cat hair on them, that is a must.
#7. When no one is home, I sometimes talk out loud to myself. When my family is home, I do that too...only I pretend I am talking to one of the cats or dogs.
#8. My significant other is 14 years my junior. I am pretty sure he and I have heard every “Cougar” joke there is from our friends (who all happen to be my age)… but at the end of the night, it’s still ME that’s going home with the cute young guy… so who’s laughing now?! (wink).
#9. I provide daycare for my two three-year old grandsons. I have learned that the number of minutes that they are quietly playing is directly related to the number of minutes I'll spend cleaning up the mess - times 2.
#10. The one biggest lie I’ve told repeatedly in my life… “No, those are not MY dogs.” (When you have four of them, you have to tell that one A LOT!)
That about wraps it up, but I’d love it if you would consider stopping by my blog to check out why I was selected to be part of the Design Team for Imaginisce. I’d also love it if you would follow me and come back to the Imaginisce blog to see what all of us are working on.

I love #9!! LOL!!! Great projects and congrats on being part of the DT!!!!!!!!!!
Just love your sense of humour and photos you have
posted. I bet you have a fun household!
Glad to hear that I am not the only one to use
dog and cat hair as a condiment or embellishment.
Just depends on what room you find it in!
Congratulations to you!

I love you girl! And I can tell you from knowing her personally that she is just as funny in person and a blast to scrap with!
Beth....I love your blog. I love your sense of humor! Thanks for making the team.
Beth may just be my complete opposite in every way...I'm interested to see if she has new or different scrappin' techniques.
You are a hoot!
Beth has some really awesome work. I love her humor and talent!
Love reading Beth's 10 things! She has some amazing work on her blog. I left her some love.
I'm still laughing at the photos of your grandsons!
I love this idea - introducing us to the DT ladies! It is so much fun to get to know them. Beth has some beautiful creations - but what else would you expect from someone who apparently loves cats as much as I do?
Love the projects!! I am liking all I have seen so far from all of the DT. I can't wait to see more!

Wow!! I think that your fACTS were amazing!! You seem like such a CARING and kind person and a WONDERFUL G-MA!! =)
THANKS so much for sharing with us and I really enjoyed looking at your projects!! Also, sorry to hear about your dog (GRACIE)!! We have a POMERAINIAN ZOE and my 4 yr. old just LOVES her she is getting old (9) and has started to have seizsures (SP?) I just dread the day when she goes, it will be sad. Hard because I will miss her but then I will have to deal with Beckett's sadness too!! =(
THANKS again and have a FABULOUS DAY!!
Beth has such a fun blog! Thanks for introducing me to an amazing scrapper!
Love the blog and the facts, made me smile for sure =) thanks for sharing everything!
Sounds like you are not only a great crafter, but have a great personality! I was cracking up as I read your list...especially the picture of your grandsons! Too cute.
Now following along.

The picture of your grandsons cracked me up - they look like they would be great for lots of inspiration.
hugs,

great to learn more about you!
Fun facts! I might have to adopt the "cat hair is a condiment" theory. We have only one cat but she is extremely fluffy and we see her fluff everywhere!
Great to learn more about you Beth! I'm a Diet coke with Lime girl myself. ;)
I can't wait to see what 2011 brings! Thanks Imaginisce!
Congrats, Beth!!! Love your work!!
I've left her a comment on her blog :) Have a nice weekend :)
Welcome Beth! It was so fun to read about Beth this morning! I think we may be related.Loves dogs and cats, hate pb and beans, talks to self..so me.
Your 10 Things cracks me up!!!! I totally agree, matching cats count as one! We only have 2 cats and our poor dog is constantly harassed by them :) On I side note, I'm SURE that Imaginisce picked you because so many of us are also in that secret club of Pet Hair in the Adhesive Trendsetters... but it's still hush-hush :)
Wow you are certainly an interesting person and it is lovely to get to know you. Loved your projects and can't wait to see what it next.
Kim xXx
Wow Beth, We have lot in common, I Have 4 cats and 3 dogs. Yes cat hair is a given. Congrats on being chosen for the DT.
Love your humor and your creativity. I already followed you before you got this gig.

Yeah, another Diet Pepsi-Powered person!. I drink it 24/7, but collect Coca-Cola items. There's nothing wrong with talking to your pets. I have complete converstions with my two cats all the time. It's normal, I swear!
I'm not partial to Beth because we share the same name but because I know her work from a message board we both frequent. She is just fantastic and I am so thrilled that she is now on your design team-she'll knock your socks off.
I'm a coca-cola powered papercrafter, it has less of a ring :)
wow great post and you made me laugh. Now I am off to check out your blog.
Loved getting to know you better...
thanks for sharing! congratulations!
