My affinity for crafting started at a very young age and primarily consisted of a love of glitter, glue, and glitter glue. My engineering background leads me to be slightly compulsive, while the little girl in me still loves a bit of glitter here and there.
Measure twice, cut once, and add a little glitter on top!
I was an avid scrapbooker throughout middle school and high school. I took a few cardmaking classes in college and that's where my passion for paper truly ignited. The year after I graduated college, I made a new year's resolution to go an entire year without buying a greeting card. I was able to keep it, and can proudly say that I have not bought a card since.
I have branched out to making small banners, my son's baby book, his mobile for his crib, and much more. I have yet to decided what I really want this website to be, but I figure it's a good start for getting my ideas out there into the world. If we're lucky enough, maybe I'll even open an Etsy shop. I'm not new to the blogosphere nor am I new to crafting, but I in no way will claim to be a professional at either.
I'm going to be honest and tell you I don't actually have a lot of time to do my crafts. I have a full time job, a husband, and a very active toddler. I typically craft during his naps or after he goes to sleep, but let's be real, usually I'm just relaxing or cleaning while he sleeps.
Something sparked in me today - glittered perhaps? I've been thinking about starting this blog for a long time and it was one of my new year's resolution for 2016. I want to be able to put my ideas out there to share with the world, because, well... why not? So tonight, while my husband was out, and my kid slept, I popped in a movie (or three - don't judge), cranked out seven cards that I am very proud of, and decided to share.
So here we go!
