A little note of recognition

I wanted to give credit to Heidi Tekunoff for the card designs that I have posted so far in this blog... I created those nine cards in her wonderful class. She has a great blog at twohappystampers.blogspot.com loaded with tutorials and great inspiration to create. Thank you Heidi for a great class, I can't wait for the next one.

Getting Started

I am so excited to start blogging and have a little spot on the internet to put my ideas, inspirations and creations. Thank you Kristine for encouraging me to set up my blog and doing a bit more with my knowledge then I am currently doing. She has a great blog with wonderful creations for hair ties, clippies, cards, etc. that she has created at PositivelyWhimsy.blogspot.com

Recently I started taking a class on stamping techniques and fell in love with the craft. I am hoping to expand this into scrapbooking and other handmade crafts. My intention is to sell some of my products on my etsy site one day soon (appletartdesigns.etsy.com) and to teach classes on crafting (and maybe yoga as well) in the next year or two.

Smiles, Love and Hugs to all that come to this site!
