First day doing a blog about what I like to do. Being creative with paper, fabric and sometimes food.

A little bit about me. I am a stay at home mom of one very smart little boy. It is because of him that I became addicted to scrap-booking. I filled one album with just layouts of my son during his first year with us. Then I found Ustream and Youtube. Following the instructions provided by other crafts people, I started to make mini albums out of cardstock and paper. I was instantly hooked. Now, not only am I able to highlight pictures of my son, but I can showcase these pictures in an album that I made. I don't want to mislead you into thinking that I am this phenomenal paper-crafter. I am just beginning here. I will post pictures of all of my creations here, mini albums, quilts, and some jewelry.

I learned my love of quilting from my mother. I miss coming home and walking into a living room turned into sewing studio. I still have the quilt she made for me: Grandmother's Garden done in red, blues and white with a flannel backing. It has gone bare in some spots, but still warm and full of love. The quilts that I make now are just to try and pay the bills, but in the near future I want to start making more works of art.

Not much of a jewelry maker, but soon I hope to have some items that will make you go: Oooooh! LOL.

I also am an independent consultant with Close To My Heart. A scrap-book supplier out of Utah. There will be a link in the sidebar, somewhere for you look/browse an online catalog. Through that link you can either order right there, you will pay s&h and taxes, and your order will ship right to your door. Or send me an e-mail and I can process the order, by doing it this way I can offer discounts to you. E-mail me for details: awenhniseronkion@hotmail.com.

Well, I guess that is all for today. I will be working on getting this blog up and perfected. I have to decide which pics to show or just say to heck with it all and show everything. Hmmm.

I will post links from the many influences on my creativity. To all that I create, I thank you. Please do not think I am claiming designs as my own, I am not. I will name and post links to websites/youtube/ustream sites.















I know that this is a lot of pictures, but hey, it is my first 'blog day' after all! I'll post more tomorrow. And hopefully get a good handle on this blog designing. Hope I get some followers, ;)!
