Let Me Introduce Myself

Welcome Crafty Friends

My name is Krickett and I have been making cards for about 20 years now.  I started with a simple Christmas card kit that was on sale.  That lead to another kit the next year, then a sticker set here a rub on set there when they were on clearance. About 12 years ago I had the epiphany that I could make cards for more than just Christmas, and the rest is history.  

About 10 years ago I really threw myself into the paper crafting world, watched videos (who knew you could learn so much on the internet) bought a Big Shot die cutting machine, found a local stamp shop, went to my first convention, and truly embraced this new media.  Now I find I need a whole room for my stuff, I have my own unique style, I will finally call myself a Card maker (it’s not just something I do, but part of who I am) and I love the community I have discovered.

I have been around crafting all my life, and tried many different crafts along the way, but this fits for me. I have made so many friends, met so many interesting people, learned so much and I realized I’m not alone in my craft any more.

I decided to create this blog simple to share, my thoughts, a cool project I create, and great tools, or techniques I might find along the way.  It was on the internet that I found some very creative people that helped me blossom, and I hope that someone may stumble upon this and it might just help them.

Go, create and enjoy!
