My Funky Valentine - Handpainted Clipping Mask

About Me

A mini-biography: Born and raised in the upper Midwest, lived in both rural and urban areas, disabled at age 30, spent time in eastern Tennessee but now living in Arkansas. Divorced, but dating an incredible man that I hope to spend the next 50-60 years with. I have a son in his mid-20s who's a US Navy submariner and a new daughter-in-law as of 2019.

I've been collecting scrap freebies for a while, making layouts for my photography scrapbook and more recently a young niece. I tend to be sort of seasonal with my interests, as photography in the cold aggravates fibromyalgia, and too much sunlight triggers lupus flareups--so I scrap a lot in summer and winter and enjoy spring and fall outdoors, often with a camera in hand. If I'm not shooting photos, training my mobility dog, or designing (mostly commercial-use items for my shop), I'm probably either watching anime or playing Steam games or one of several tabletop RPGs with my gaming group.
