Friday Fiskateer Focus - Michelle #7586

I’m so pleased to bring you this week’s Friday Fiskateer Focus - Michelle # 7586!  (sorry for the delay, technical difficulties!)

Name and Fiskateer #: Michelle O’Driscoll and Fiskateer#7586

How long have you been a Fiskateer? I joined Fiskateers in Jan. of 2011

Tell us a little bit about yourself:

I am a SAHM of two children: a daughter who is 4 yrs and a 20 month old son. I started scrapbooking when I took a class at a LSS with my sister. I had brought some bridal shower pictures to scrap and after that I was hooked. Also, helped that following a bridal shower there is so much more to scrap! I will be married for almost 6 years in July (the 30th) to my husband, Gerry. And about 2 ½ years ago I started card making. I have been part of a card swap group and set a goal 2 years ago to make all my own cards and not buy any at the store!

  

Tell us one thing about yourself that not many people know:  I love a challenge! If someone says they can’t figure out a use for an item/tool/scrappy embellishment I challenge myself to do something with it!

What is your favorite craft?

Scrapbooking and Cardmaking

  

What would your dream crafting day be like?

Wake up when I want, get dressed and grab some coffee heading anywhere to have endless uninterrupted hours of crafting.

What is your favorite Fiskars tool?

Border punches and more recently I fell in love my swivel craft knife. It is always in my tool tote.

What do you love about being a Fiskateer?

Challenges, online crops and the chit chat! The best part is after a challenge or crop getting to see everyone’s projects. It is so great to see the different takes/perspectives on each challenge.

Thanks so much for sharing your story with us Michelle!
