I have been married to my wonderful husband, Richard, for 20 years and we have 5 awesome children. Our oldest daughter is 17, then we have two sons 14 & 11, a daughter who is 6, and our youngest son is 4. I have been scrapbooking for about 25 years. I also love to make cards, hair bows and accessories, jewelry and just about anything else crafty. I got my wishblade in October 2008 and use it almost every day. I am learning how to design my own files and I am totally addicted.

I graduated from Utah State University in Business Education, but after teaching at a Private Business College I realized that is not what I wanted to do. So I then got a job as a desktop publisher and office manager for a department on campus and worked for them for many years designing their newsletters, annual meeting programs and getting an annual book ready to go to print at Johns Hopkins University Press. I am currently a stay at home mom and thoroughly enjoy it -- just wish my days had a few more hours in them. Our children are very active in several sports including: baseball, basketball, football, wrestling, gymnastics and ballroom dancing and we love supporting them. We are also very active in our church and currently my husband and I both teach Sunday School and I am also the Activity Day Leader for the 8 & 9 year old girls.

I am excited to be a part of Darcy’s Creative Team and look forward to sharing my scrapbook layouts and/or other creations with you as well as making new friends.
