Creative Goals:  
My professional goal is to do freelance and assignment work for papercraft manufacturers and papercrafts publications. I enjoy working with highly creative and professional artists whom develop new trends in the scrapbooking industry. I hope to inspire and emulate what artistic flavor is all about.

My Style
I like designs that pop and grab the eye of the reader. I am eclectic and artistic in style, yet am continually branching out with new ideas and techniques that stretch my talents. I am truly in love with heartfelt vintage design work. Specializing in layering of patterned papers and the intricacy that is added with each embellishment is what I look for in the design process. Using varieties of products and textures on a page is a strength and a love. I do want to create for what the picture calls and most of my pictures call for lots of cool artistic embellishments!
 
I like to use artistic photography to tell the story, while preserving a "piece of the moment" for future years.  We all need to have a piece of something to help us preserve our memories....a beautiful photograph, a detailed story, and appropriate "backgound flavorings"  are the perfect way to preserve a moment in time.
