Bio: I am a wife, soon-to-be CPA and scrapbooker. I recently started a blog at www.papercandycreations.blogspot.com and while I am still learning a lot about scrapbooking (and life for that matter!), I hope this never changes. I live with my wonderful husband in beautiful Portland, OR. Yes, I LOVE when it rains and loathe the summer. I'm currently studying to pass the CPA exam. I have worked as a corporate tax preparer and a tax auditor. My dream is to be a full time CPA preparing individual and small business tax returns while scrapbooking on the side, selling my creations on my own website. But I have a lot of scrapping skills to learn before I get there. And a lot of CPA exam parts to pass, for that matter. As for scrapbooking, I have learned a lot in the past few months - mainly by viewing other people's blogs - and I have a lot more to learn before I'll feel truly competent. As far as my CPA licensing goes, I have not had much luck in passing and keeping my scores. I passed two sections but they expired before I passed the other two. Now, I am starting all over again. This time though, I am getting the worst out of the way first. Then it will be downhill from there.
