About Me
Homeschool mom of nine, Marmee (grandmother) to fifteen, author, and scrapbook designer turned Bible journal designer. I love the art journaling mixed-media styles and do some hybrid Bible journaling with Travelers Notebooks.
I believe Pixel Scrapper is the best value available. I've always admired Marisa Lerin's ingenuity. I love the way the site is set up. Perfect for me to grab an element quickly.
A Little History
My biggest passion is the Bible. I've written Bible studies and homeschool studies since the 1990s. I have never paper scrapbooked but I began digital scrapbooking in 2009. In 2011 I began designing my own kits. I shifted my passion for patterns and colors from quilting to scrapbooking. When Shanna Noel introduced the world to Bible journaling in 2014 I knew it was a game-changer for me. That week I began working on Bible journaling kits and combining them with my Bible studies. I love how God gives me the desires of my heart!
I'm originally from Orlando. Florida. We now live just outside Nashville, Tennessee. My husband is a retired federal agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and Homeland Security. We have one eighteen-year-old son at home. and whenever possible my twenty-year-old Marine is home on leave.
All my other children are adults, most with children of their own. My thirty-six-year-old daughter when to Heaven in 2014. We moved back to Florida for five years to help with her three sons. Now that they are all over eighteen we moved back to Tennessee to be near the rest of the family. My story is at My Story: Masked to Truefaced – Heart of Wisdomhttp://heartofwisdom.com/blog/my-story-masked-to-truefaced/
When I am not Bible journaling I'm reading, researching, writing or quilting (almost always with my little five-pound Pomeranian, Arrow, on my lap or by my feet). Life is simpler now that most the children are grown. It has taken me years to learn to not cook for eleven people, but I still feel like laundry is never ending. :) My adult children visit frequently so our home is still like Grand Central Station but there are more quiet times in between.
Family is my life. Creating and sharing digital art is the frosting on the cake.
