Interests: I am happily married and the proud mother of 4 boys, 5 bonus daughters, 3 bonus sons-in-law, and lots of grandkids! Some of my boy's deal with the effects of different needs. Some battle Bi-Polar, while some battle the effects of Autism, and sensory integration disorder. All my children are my life's greatest treasure! I live in Oregon, and divide my time between my family, designing, church, and friends. I am a self described "Scrapbook/ stamp/craft Fanatic"! I eat, sleep, and breathe it! I have been in the crafting industry as an artist and designer for the last 21 years and have had the privilege of working with some of the most amazing companies and people in the industry. I love the special connection that's made between crafters and sharing art with my crafty peeps has been such a great joy. I stay home and design full time and take care of my kids and home full time too! (Ok...obviously I can't do both full time, so the house is messy, and I work in between kid emergencies:) I look forward to creating new friends through the sharing of my art, and talents!
