About this listen

Hi there! I’m an in home child care provider by day, creative guru by night, and this is my Podcast. I live in Portland, Oregon, have a great family, urban farm, and I love the great outdoors. I started playing with gems, paper and scissors when I was having a hard time keeping all the photos together and organized. I started making cards, then I was introduced to the most AMAZING stamping system out there for quality, ease of use, and organization ability (CTMH acrylix©) that is also latex free. Now there is no stopping me! I have learned that the sky’s the limit with this, and every step has been very rewarding! Recently CTMH closed but befefore they officially closed the doors, they negotiated an amazing opportunity for those that wanted to slide over to Stampin' Up! (traditionally a card making focused copmany). I for one looked everything over and took the plunge! Wow so many possibilities and the level of choices. I love how robust my selection / offering is now! I help people of diverse communities; LGBTQ+, non-conventional relationships, and alternative spiritual paths, in a safe, non judge-mental, joyful way to; make, preserve and share the moments that matter most through personalized cards, scrapbooking, and papercrafts!2024 Art
