I am addicted to crafts. My husband says I need therapy… but I told him to get out of my kitchen! My friends, on the other hand, encouraged me to start a business…my friends won. Now I’ve “cooked up” so many cards we can’t even use the dining room. My passion for paper started long ago as a child when I would gather up small scraps and put them away for future projects (You know, I still do that too!).
About 12 years ago, my first of three children was born and I turned those scraps of paper into beautiful birth announcements. I was hooked!
Since then, it’s been a constant simmer of scrapbooking and stamping. Of all the crafts I do, card making is my passion. Starting out with a blank sheet of cardstock then adding layers, stamped images and embellishments… never knowing how it’s going to turn out… then seeing my finished card… each one brings a sense of satisfaction.
My love affair with paper continues and I still hoard scraps every chance I get! The different colors, patterns and textures spark my creativity. I draw inspiration from many things including my family, friends and travels.
As a Stampin Up! demonstrator I have been lucky enough to work with some very talented women. Be sure to visit my website: www.thecardkitchen.com, to see the amazing cards they've cooked up!
