This is Jennifer's second term with Crop Addict.
Hello, My Name is Jennifer Matott and I'm a scrapbook addict. Seriously, I have been a scrapbooker for 8 years now and have learned so much from other people, by taking classes or going to crops. I have a fine arts degree (BFA) from Fredonia State, NY and a Masters in Art Education from Syracuse University. I am a High School art teacher and 3D artist from Central New York (that's in the center of the STATE of NY, not the city!).
I scrap about 10- 12 hours a week when I'm not busy chasing my 3 yr. old around or working. I have a very patient and understanding husband who puts up with my need to create and make messes. He doesn't get it, but he likes the results of my pages. I'm ALWAYS up for a challenge and love to push the boundaries of the "page"!
My style is free form, yet I like using trendy embellishments and stuff that isn't really considered scrapstuff, like hardwares, fabric or other treasures from the local hardware store. I like bold color combinations and neutrals. I tend to feature one or two photos on my pages rather than many. I LOVE gorgeous patterned paper and rub ons. I 'm becoming an avid collector of all things scrappy! It's easy to get addicted!!!
