I am a stay at home mother of my two beautiful "babies", Evan (5) and Ava (2). I also do freelance interior design on the side. I, along with my husband (John) and our kids, live in the western suburgs of Chicago. However, we will be spending a large portion of the summer months at our new lake home in Michigan.
I have always enjoyed crafting. I started making invitations and cards about 7 years ago, only using papers and cardstock. After being introduced to Stampin' UP! products and becoming a demonstrator 4 years ago, I was soon hooked on the art of rubber stamping. Shortly after my first child was born, I started scrapbooking to preserve his memories. At first I was a "hesitant scrapbooker", as I wasn't sure I wanted to CUT the pictures... yikes! Now there isn't a picture I don't crop! It's amazing how my scrapbooking has evolved over the years... from not wanting to cut pictures and trying to use EVERY picture I took... to making my scrapbook pages actual works of art!
I have decided to start a blog about my papercrafting "addiction" to share my artwork with my friends and family around the country and hopefully inspire other fellow scrappers. Please feel free to leave comments!
