Here's to NEW ventures and making new online friends. This is my blog and I will try and post something everyday. I am not much of a talker or a blogger so it will be pretty difficult for me to remember to post something. I was up til about 5:30 a.m. working on some new digis for the September 10th release; so I am a bit tired. Although, 4:00am is has become my usual bedtime since I am up pretty late drawing, creating my new website and graphic designing my rubber stamp insert cards -- yipee!! I will hopefully be offering etched rubber stamps very soon on selected images for those who prefer to work with rubber stamps.
The images I drew last night came out so adorable! There are a couple of cutsie ones and a couple of my regular type of drawings (ice bucket anyone? hint hint) :). I am do itching tp release them now! Sept. 10th is too far off, lol.
I am a versatile artist so I will be drawing a variety of images so that I can offer a wide range of digis for crafting community. Here are some fun facts about me. :)
At the moment I am offering a free digi for those of you who join our Facebook Group and blog. So stop on by and join the fun! Spread the word to your friends and crafting buddies.

I became a born again believer at the age of 12 and have walked with Jesus ever since.
I was valedictorian of my high school and graduate with honors and high honors with a GPA of over 4.0.
I was accepted to 2 reputable colleges but decided not to attend because I wanted to be ana Medical Doctor, an Architect and a Designer. Knowing I could do them all, I decided it would take too long so I opted to raise a family and aimed to become the best mom ever!!

My other job is a Pastor.
I love to listen to Christian music - actually that is all I ever listen to, keeps me focused on the Master.
I knew I would marry my husband because God told me He was the one He created for me.
My husband and I dated for only two months when he asked me to marry Him. I loved his big muscles and how he loves God! He is an awesome man of God and man, can he worship..
I have 7 sisters and 3 brothers and 24 neices and nephews. I lost count on how many 2, 3, 4ths of everything else. My father and two of my sisters are with Jesus now.
