I love to create. Papercrafting, scrapbooking, playing with all the tools involved (papers, Cricut, stamping, markers, embossing, etc) all inspire me & give me that outlet. I also have made jewelry, done sewing projects, and other craft hobbies. I'm former Military (Army) and my DH still is active in the TN Army National Guard. He is my best friend in life now for over 25 years. I recently retired because we are out of debt. He'll be able to retire in the next few years & we'll be able to travel more. Which means more photos & more memories to scrap. We have 1 son & he'll be 25 Sept 2015. He's also in the TN National Guard. We are very proud of him. We have 3 cats & 1 dog. Two of the cats I foster. However, no one seems to want to adopt cats, they want kittens, thus I've had them awhile- July 7, 2015 will be 2 years. We had 2 dogs, but our older dog of 14 years, Pepper, went over the rainbow bridge on March 7, 2015. She left many paw prints on my heart. I am missing her. As you can tell, I love my fur babies. I'm also a consultant for Close to My Heart. I love their stamps & papers. It's a wonderful business & I enjoy sharing with others. I've learned a lot of techniques and gotten creative ideas from CTMH & BPC has been a wonderful addition to learning & sharing. I wish I would have found BPC a long time ago. I've only been scrapbooking since '07-'08 and 2 years ago found BPC and also Stacy's book Photo Freedom which changed the way I scrap and turned chronological frustration of trying to catch up 20+ years worth of photos & memories into freedom to scrap stories as I remember them or want to scrap them. So Thank You Stacy :)
