I have been a paper craftier for six years but creating
has always been a part of my life.
I was raised by my grandmother who taught me the love of creating. Inspired by her 1930's scrapbooks
I love all things vintage
and old. When I am at home you can find me in my studio.I love to create
very special layouts, cards and altered items my mini pieces of art.
I have been lucky to have work with major paper craft companies including Spellbinders Paper Arts,Best Creations, Inc, Nikki Sivils Scrapbooker to name a few and in magazines, on TV (Local TV segments, Creative Memories TV Show, Terri O Show, QVC,
Home Shopping Network US and Canada and was published in a book last
year as well as work in catalogues and at the Craft and Hobby
Association Show for the last six shows. For the past two years I have
been a VIP speaker at Midland Memory Expo speaking along side Cardmaker magazines Editor Tanja Fox, Creating Keepsakes Creative Editor, Megan Hoeppner and NikkiSivlis, Scrapbook Paper Company
