 I live in the state of Georgia in the good ole' south where they call us all Georgia Peaches! LOL  I am the wife to a wonderful man, Kevin, who is from Australia. He is very tolerant of my crafting!! I am a mother of three, Taylor (20), Michael (15) and Bailey (12, almost 13!). We have  two dogs, T-Bone and Brisket and two cats Highlight and White-Out. Do  you see our theme? LOL The dogs are named after cuts of beef LOL and  the cats are office supplies LOL!!! I know.. we are very goofy!! I have  been crafting since the dawn of ages .. Okay.. maybe that is a little  bit of an exaggeration, but I first found a small scrapbooking store  right after I had Taylor.. so that is 20 years ago!!! During a bad  marriage my crafting fell off. When Kevin and I got together I pulled  all of the crafting supplies out of the garage to see if I could have a  go at it again. Wow!!  I missed it so much. But then I found blogs!! And cards!!! And challenges!!! LOL  A whole new world opened up for me!!  I   couldn't believe it all existed and I didn't know anything about it.  I   have met so many wonderful people in the crafting community  and I am always looking forward to meeting new crafters!!

Our Guest Designer for April


My name is Kym and my blog is Kym’s Crafty Cards.  I started cardmaking about six years ago and although I can’t work many hours due to my health, I decided that the cards that make I would sell solely to raise funds for different charities.  Just before my 5th anniversary of making cards, I was delighted that I had reached raising £1,600 for different charities.  The cards that I make are varied and obviously depend on the customer requirement. 
About 2 years ago I got into stamping – rubber and digital - and all I will say is that I am ADDICTED and the rest is history!!!  I love the ability to stamp and colour in with different mediums (Copics, Promarkers, Spectrum Noirs, watercolours, cosmic shimmers, distress inks, etc.) and also love the ability of stamping on different papers/card stock to get different effects. 

I am truly blessed to be on the Design Teams for:  Sweet Pea Stampers, Bearly Mine Designs, Aud Sentiments, and Delicious Doodles.

Here are the samples made by our team, starting with our wonderful Guest Designer, Kym:
