My blog

Objective:

LOVE to scrapbook and create altered items.  There is nothing I would love to do more than share what I have created and learn from others as I develop new techniques and styles.  Preserving our past is crucial and I think the more fun that people have doing that, the more willing they would be!  It would thrill me to know that I have created a spark of inspiration for someone who's looking for some artistic influence. 

My desire and dream to expand my experiences and my opportunities has been at a recent high.  Although I've only been submitting to magazines for the last 6 months, I feel that I've had some great success and I look forward to many more.  I have been scrapbooking for over 12 years and it is now apart of my daily life.  I am searching to be a part of design teams, magazine calls, and any manufacturers whose products have been an inspiration to me.

 

Styles & Techniques:

Styles are contantly changing, techniques are constantly being invented.  My goal is to be on the cutting edge, learning always and having fun with my own style.  I think the biggest benefit to my style is that it's not always the same.  I love to try a variety of different looks with many different tools and products.

Fiskars flew me to Texas to a weekend training session in November 2008, where I became a certified Fiskars Trainer.  I have also taught scrapbooking technique classes in a local craft store.
