Hi, I’m Melissa!

I am a seeker of that crazy, excited feeling that comes when you've created something that’s unique, beautiful and expresses who you are in some small way. It’s like making a new discovery, when you find a unique combination of color, layout, dimension and texture. I call it a creative spark and it makes me giddy! Through sharing and teaching I hope to help others find this amazing feeling of creative bliss!

A Happy Customer!

Just a mushy note to tell you how much I appreciate your extra “value add” for being your customer.  Your “extras” have brought me back to stamping and crafting more regularly and have reignited my love for this hobby.

Thank you for being innovative and creating a way that I can participate in all of the events and programs you have from across the country.  I appreciate it more than you know. I just wanted to share this with you to hopefully bring a smile to your face that you have brought one to me more than once and definitely every time I get a package with your return address.

Wow, wow, wow! I'm always accepting that I'm not artistic and need to see the work of others to give me a jump start. After watching your video I realise there are so many more ways to be artistic, but most importantly.......to have fun and enjoy the journey. Thank you so much for the instructions, the tips and especially the sheer joy of having a go. Loved all the results, even the 'slightly off line' ones.
