My love of paper crafting :)

I have been a member of STV since 2009.  That was when I made my first GKD purchase and was hooked on her wonderful product.  

The first couple of years I was just a crafting 'stalker' looking at all the lovely cards made by so many of you.  I was afraid to even make comments, much less post pix of my cards, and now I love to enter challenges.  Go figger!  :)  

I know I have a lot to learn, but you all make me feel so welcome and give me so much encouragement. 

Thank you and big hugs to all my new friends on STV.
