About Me

I'm a designer for Hero Arts Rubber Stamps Inc....been with them for 22 years.  I love creating projects using stamps, paper and ink.  I've been blessed to be able to use my abilities in the stamping industry through cardmaking and retail classes as well as my latest adventures of bringing Hero Arts into the digital arena by creating kits which are available online.

My commitments with Hero Arts include:

• Digital Manager
• Instructor for Retailer workshops
• Monthly Technique Creator for Heroarts.com
• Card artist for catalogs and supplements
• Hero Blog Contributor
• Education Assistant
• Product development

My preferred style is light collage. I say "light" because I like to use papers and images to create layered effects. In 2006, I authored a book called "Layers" which depicts simple projects using my signature style.

I live in the Village of Somonauk, a small farm community in Northern Illinois with my hubby Tom of 25 years, our two sons; Brooks and Scooter, the family dog Cede and tortoise Chester.

Thanks for your interest in what I do.
