About me

Location Upstate, New York
Introduction I am so fortunate in this life...I have a kind and generous husband of 38 years, Rick, who supports my crafting basically by tentatively sticking his head in the craft room once in a while. We have two adult (the TRUE oxymoron) children who have returned to live in the town they grew up in after forays into parts known and unknown. We have one grandson who has captured our hearts and who we unabashedly spoil. I have wonderful friends who I stamp and break bread with and who laugh at and with me. I love to garden and our village lot gives us almost a half acre to care for. I live in a house built in 1869 that we have completely renovated and decorate (noticeable but tasteful, I hope!) our large front porch for each of the major holidays. To support my crafting addiction, I coordinate a secondary level special education program for our school district which fulfills my need to keep learning and sharing with children and peers. While I enjoy and have tried many crafts, stamping is a passion. I hope to share ideas, the work of my local stamp classes and groups and information about where I am at any given moment in my creative journey.
