Welcome, thanks for visiting! I hope you find some helpful information here. I wish you well on your creative journey!
MY STORY
My name is Dawn and I am a crafter. My first crafting projects were greeting cards that I made for family and friends after I swore that I would never again pay $5 for a thin, terribly made card! Since then, my love for crafting has only grown. Some crafts that I enjoy are hand lettering and faux calligraphy, paper crafting and making jewelry. But my heart belongs to making greeting cards. I have developed interests in other kinds of crafts, but I always seem to come back to greeting cards. I love creating something that, when given to someone, makes them feel acknowledged, happy or just not so alone.
The style of greeting cards that I make is on the simpler, less busy side. What my style does have is lots of vibrant color. The color can be in the form of ink from a stamp pad, card stock, markers/pens, glitter glue and embossing powders.
WHY I LOVE HELPING PEOPLE
One of the few things that I love more than making greeting cards is helping people. I think it’s because I have made some sort of connection with that person. In my former life I helped people as an Administrative Assistant and as a Social Worker. Connecting with people by sharing my greeting card ideas is another way that I hope to help anyone who visits the site.
THE GOAL OF MY SITE
I have learned countless techniques by watching people on YouTube and I hope that this website can help me to pay it forward in terms of providing information and inspiration for your next creative project. Even though I use these techniques to make greeting cards, many of them could be used in a variety of other creative ways around your house, at work and potentially in other areas of your life.
