Our next spotlight shines on Gretchen Henninger who lives on the Upper East Side in New York City. Gretchen is single and an attorney. She grew-up on the New York/Canadian border (in dairy farm country). Her family had a cow, but weren’t farmers. Besides the hobbies of stamping and scrapbooking, Gretchen also enjoys golfing and miniature golf. As a New Yorker, she is a big Yankee fan and has a collection of souvenir finger nail clippers. Gretchen says she started stamping in December 2000 and quickly became addicted. She said she, “…knew about scrapbooking, but was afraid to explore it as a hobby because I knew I would become obsessed (which is exactly what happened).” Gretchen finally resisted the urge and began her first scrapbook in August 2005. She went from one storage tower to a whole room. Gretchen says she is always looking for new things to try and can't get enough magazines or idea books and enjoys browsing through online galleries. Gretchen has her own blog where she shares her expertise in a wide variety of techniques. Her favorite color is green. We’re glad you are in our swap, Gretchen, and we look forward to getting to know you better!
