#346 - Anything Goes

Hello Friends!

Barbara here,

Before we announce winners and start the newest challenge,

it's time to announce the newest designer here at Crafty Creations

Kathy Barnett

Hi my name is Kathy Barnett.
I am a mother of 2, a son and a daughter in college.
I have a great hubby of almost 30 years who has put up with all of my hobbies throughout our time together.

Like my Mother, Grandmothers and Great-Grandmothers, I started crafting at a very early age. Embroidery, ceramics (eventually taught ceramics in my early 20's), cross stitching, crocheting, making porcelain dolls, tole painting, scrapbooking, knitting, weaving and even spinning my own yarn on either a wheel or a drop spindle. I am fully engaged in making cards and photo albums. I love the coloring process the most, but I also enjoy building all the elements in the end to create special and unique cards for giving.

When I am not coloring a stamped image, or creating a layout for a card you may see me knitting, spinning or weaving at a loom.

Creating, this is who I am. Put something in my hands and I am in my own world.

Let's give Kathy some love.
