Hey all you scrapbookers, this should be interesting (and fun). I received an email from CK magazine today and it had this quiz on it. So I thought it would be fun to see what they say my scrapbooking "style" is. I took it and the results were pretty interesting and somewhat eyeopening.
Then I thought, how interesting would it be to share the test and see how other scrapbookers compare?
