Hello! I've been scrapping about 6 years and am so glad now that we've moved back to our small hometown in Illinois so our boy can grow up around all his grandparents! Without scrapping, I might never have anything else to do in downtime! I love scrapbook.com for shopping, learning and getting inspired!

I work from home remotely through the internet to an attorney's office in Scottsdale, Arizona. I've been working for him for over 7 years & when my hubby & I decided to move back to Illinois from Arizona, my boss said he would try out the remote work situation and almost 2 years later, it's still working. So I get to spend days with my boy at home when he's not in preschool & my hubby works 2nd shift, so we spend time together during the days, too - while I'm working of course.

I used to play bass in a band in O.C., CA, during my younger days but now I'm completely domesticated with my family. My favorite pattern is houndstooth & whenever I see something in that design, I have to buy it. We have a dog & a cat. That's about it!
