Description of my style
My style would be defined as eclectic because I use whatever papers, trims, and other embellishments I feel are necessary to convey my story or emotion.  Color and pattern are integral elements of my creations, and  I am not afraid to try new techniques or to use non-traditional elements in my layouts, cards, and altered work as well as to add a bit of whimsy to them. With my background in fine arts (I am also a watercolor and mixed media painter), crafts (I quilt and sew), and business, I bring a good foundation of art principles to my work table and good writing skills to my tutorials.
