Home Area:
Sacramento, CA

And now a little something about me:

I am a full-time scrapbooker and (mostly) stay-at-home mom. I live with my darling daughter Elizabeth, my always loving and supportive husband Jason, and our furry kid (dog) Jake. When I’m not spending time with family, checking my e-mail, gardening, cooking, or reading (chick lit mostly) you can find me in my studio creating, or at a local scrapbook store shopping, cropping, or teaching a class.

Crafting (especially scrapbooking) has always been a part of my life, and always will be in the future. I teach scrapbook and paper craft classes at various stores, and my favorite part is meeting new people who share my passion for creating. I try to create from the heart, and capture stories and memories of things, people and places I love. My rules for crafting is that there are no rules, and everyone is an artist.

Random facts:

  • I hate the word bling.
  • I am a morning person, not a night owl.
  • I enjoy living in Vacaville. It’s between SF and Sac, so it’s close to everything Bay Area.
  • I grew up on a farm and had every kind of animal and was active in 4-H and FFA.
  • I love lists. {especially to-do}

Favorite music:
I listen to a lot of things. My #1 favorite is Harry Connick Jr.
Other than him I like listening to most music (other than new country).

Favorite color:
Lilac/purple

Favorite snack:
Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies (a RARE delight)

Favorite drink:
Well, I mostly drink H2O these days, but I love cherry coke

Favorite food:
This question always gets me because how can a person have just one favorite? I love tons of things! Hawaiian pizza, chow mein, and scrambled eggs with bacon come to mind right now.
