I am the mother of 6 children and 6 grandchildren and I am happily married to the sweetest man around.  We live on a Homestead in South Carolina where we raise chickens and try to grow a lot of our own food.  I love living in the country. I have always loved crafting, especially with my children when they were growing up. Now, my grandchildren craft with me. I have always been a scrapbooker but I have discovered the joy of paper crafting in regards to book making, card making and junk journals. I could spend everyday creating books. It has been an outlet for me through some difficult times. It calms my soul and brings me such joy. The feel and smell of paper is something that gets me so excited.  I have created many journals for my family members, sold some on Etsy and given them to friends for special occasions or when I feel they are in need of a place to put down their thoughts and create something from their heart.
