Learning

I set this blog up a year ago because I wanted to enter a challenge, that was it. But now as I have looked as works of other crafters I found that I was quite intimidated. I have learned that there are many different types of crafter out here and it has been great seeing and learning from all of them. I don't have many crafty people around me, and most people don't understand my love for crafting. When I discovered You Tube and this crafting community it opened up a whole new connection of people who love to do things I love to do.

I have always been creative but never had an outlet for it. Anyway 2005 mark a way for me to use some of my creativity, scrapbooking. I enjoy scrapbooking because it gives us a creative way to tell a story, our story in different ways. Because I did not have anyone to work with my skill, my craft did not develop much, I stopped scrapbooking for a long time and when I return to it in 2011 Wow! it was not like I had remembered. My daughter was graduating and I really wanted to do a book for her and tell, my story of her. There where so many products and things I was overwhelmed. Her scrapbook ended up being two books. But what I discovered during this time is how much I missed scrapbooking and just being creativity. I found the crafting community of You Tube in mid 2012, and I was just floored because people where doing some amazing things with everything. I did not join right away because I did not know were I fit. So after a year I feel like I know my style a little better, I would say that I really like mix media, steampunk, and vintage. So with that bit of information what I want to do this year is to challenge myself more with layouts, I have tried my had a cards and found that I do like it and maybe some other things but the idea is to challenge myself; so with that I will post some of the projects/items I make.
