General Questions
- Tell us a little about yourself. {Family, location, background, job, kids, etc.}
I was born and raised in Louisiana. Two years after getting married my DH and I moved to Illinois. Seven years after that we moved to Georgia where we are currently. We have one furbaby and she is quite a handful. - How did you first get involved in stamping?
When we moved to IL, a gal from the church invited me to a stamping workshop and I thought ~ well, I'll go so I can meet people.Um, yeah... the rest is history! I met peeps AND found an AMAZING hobby!We moved to Georgia three years ago and thanks to stamping and the internet/SCS I've made some amazing friends online and found a local stamping club.I'm hoping to meet MORE peeps now that I have {ippity}!! - What is your stamping style?
Hmmm...that's a tough one. I don't think I really have a particular style, I think it varies. However, I'm really liking the vintage look! - Tell us about your creative process
It usually starts with a particular stamp or set that I want to use, then I pull paper and embellishments based on the 'feel' I want for the project. - What is your favorite {ippity} stamp set and why?
Totally Happy. I am just in LOVE with the bird/fence image! - How often do you stamp?
Just about every day!
- How long does it take you to make a project you are happy with?
I'd say my average is an hour. Sometimes more - depends on if I have the finished project in mind or just seeing when the project leads me.
What does your craft room look like? {messy, clean, etc.}
That varies from day to day...or maybe I should say hour by hour!

- What made you decide to start selling Ippity?
I have to tell you that over the last month or so before {ippity} came along... I was just ready for a change... I even talked to my DH and Mom about it.Since moving 2 years ago (more on that below) I am now a 'stamp-at-home-wife' and wanted to do something with my stamping, would love a 'business' but how on Earth do you get started with something like that.....THEN.... {IPPITY} WAS ANNOUNCED!I knew in an INSTANT I wanted to be a part of this from the BEGINNING - Tell us about your experience selling Ippity
It has been so much fun! I've met so many fabulous stampers from all over the world!
Just for FUN
