Heidi Sonboul from Hawthorne, California
Heidi has been scrapbooking for 13 years, and with each new year she loves it more and more. She began submitting her work about 2 years ago and since then she has been published over 100 times by Creating Keepsakes, Scrapbook Trends, BHG Scrapbooks Etc., Memory Makers and more.
Heidi is the mother of two overly active boys, and when she is not tending to their needs, you can find her at her scrapbook table or with a camera in her face. She loves the challenge of keeping her style fresh and new and she is grateful for the creative outlet that scrapbooking provides.
According to Heidi:
When I was a child... I had a CRAZY curly afro, lol. My mom had no clue what to do with my hair!
I can't imagine my life without... ICE CREAM. I love to eat it in every season!
I would love to win a shopping spree to... TARGET… because they have everything there. The funny thing is, I’ve thought about this before and I have a mapped out plan for it. Just in case it ever really happens ;)
I was most embarrassed when... during the month of July, I went to the beach with ‘the family’ and being that my bum is on the voluptuous side… I decided to just wear a tank top and shorts. I was okay with it and owned my curves, until a random kid walked up (about 2 years old) and started playing with my boys’ toys. Then the dad (of the kid) walked up and said… “Is it okay if he plays with these?” I say yes, trying to be nice… and lol that’s when he (THE DAD) sat down next to me on the blanket (sharing my shade). He was there for over 20 minutes. lol I was dying inside and oddly enough I tried to make small talk. FINALLY his child moved on to another family and the dad left. I mean… who asks to sit on a random person’s blanket??? OH and there was one point when he was lying next to me and bumped my leg!!!
If I could be anywhere, I'd be... in France or Ireland.
My least favorite chore is... doing the dishes! I can’t wait to buy a dishwasher.
If I could be on any tv game or reality show, it would be...
The Price is Right… but then again, I already did that ;) and yes, Bob even called my name!!! My chance ended when someone bid $1 over me, but I got cool consolation prizes.
If a mystery package arrived on my doorstep, I'd hope it would be... a ring of keys… that would open a new FREE home and… my DREAM car… TAX free!
My guilty pleasure is... TV time once the boys are in bed.
I thought I would never... ummm... this one doesn't apply. lol I have a never look back personality :)
If a genie granted me three wishes, I’d wish that... I could eat all the calories I wanted and never gain a pound, that I would be sponsored by all my favorite scrapbook companies… for life, and that I would live a long life, so I could watch my family group and I could have the title of a Great-Great Grandma.
You would never guess it, but I... hate cake and I’m a vegetarian.
