I have been scrapbooking for over 12 years now. I started while awaiting the birth of my second child. It all started when I walked into a friends house to find her at her kitchen table
surrounded by pictures, card stock and decorative scissors! lol! My how scrapbooking has changed!

I have been married to a wonderful man for 21 years and we have 2 children, an 18 year old daughter and a 12 year old son. We live in North Eastern Utah where we are surrounded by beautiful mountains. As a family we enjoy camping and four wheeling.

My "other" job is as an Orthodontic assistant which I have been doing for the last 15 years

Before scrapbooking took over my creative world I cross-stitched, painted ceramics and wood pieces, I even had my own scroll saw. Later I designed floral arrangements for my Mom and Dad's furniture store!  All of those other hobbies just fell by the way side when I started scrapping! I have dabbled in digital scrapbooking and really enjoy it as well, but it will never replace the paper and cutters! I also enjoy jewelry making.

 I got my Wishblade in October of '06 and was hooked immediately! I was lucky enough to find Paperthreads and all the wonderful ladies at the forum. I was able to learn my machine fairly quickly thanks to all the help I got at Paperthreads. I upgraded to the KNK Element last year and
I really love this machine too! I love everything about these machines and designing files. I am so happy to be a part of the Paperthreads Design Team!

I appreciate all the support that I have received from the rest of the team and from the members of Paperthreads! This truly is a dream come true!
