A Little Bit About Me


Seeing art in everyday moments is the way I live my life.  From my daughter's smile to the silhouette of a bare tree against a winter sky, art surrounds us all the time.  I photograph nearly everything that inspires me to smile, cry, or feel that rhythm deep within my soul.  But photographs can only say so much.  I became a scrapbook artist so that I could express the effect each of those captured moments had on me.  Through paper and ink, thread and metal, I create layouts that bring the emotion and excitement of my photographs to life.  My  style makes my loved ones smile and makes me feel like I have truly filled my place in this world.

My objective in this fabulous scrapping business is to express my creativity and inspire others to do the same.  Whether that be through paper designs, publications or design teams, I am determined to bring the love of art and preserving memories to as many people as possible.
