I've really had to pinch myself to make sure I'm not dreaming the fun and adventures I've had since starting my crafty journey, only just over a year ago (and the blogging hasn't even hit a year yet!).
I was already incredibly lucky to make my living in a creative industry, but the Voice and Text Work I do in the theatre gave me no clue that there was this whole stampy/painty/inky voice inside also wanting to be heard.
I'm now happy to admit to being completely obsessive about crafting. If a day goes by without me sitting down at the craft table, I definitely get twitchy...
I try not to put a label on what I create - I love all sorts of styles. But the Text from my "other life" still plays a huge part. So often I find my inspiration from words: quotes, poems, song lyrics. And now there's a whole new way to express my love of those words.
Give me some stamps and some messy colour mediums - ink, paint, stains, I'm not fussy; add in some mixed media fun with texture, stencils, glazes; let me add some metal, or lace, or give me an object to alter and I'm away.
And now I get to play alongside a team of crafters I hugely admire, and work with the amazing stamps Jennie produces... okay, pinch me again! And thank you so much for having me here; I'm really looking forward to this new chapter of adventures.
