About Me

I'm a craft-at-home mom of a 1 year-old little girl in Denver where I grew up. I have a home crafting studio where I make things (mostly paper crafts) that I sell in the summertime at craft & antique markets. I call this my "jobby" because it's part job, part hobby. Married 6.5 years to my high school sweetheart and thinking of trying for bundle of joy #2 here pretty soon...

Favorite Crafts

Paper crafts (rosettes & decoupage), stamping, soldering, cake decorating (have taken all the classes @ Hobby Lobby), painting, home decorating, furniture refinishing, beginner's sewing projects (I've made Roman shades!), garlands,

Despite being so into paper crafts, I'm not really a scrapbooker. ;-)

See my Lark & Lola Idea Blog (www.larkandlola.blogspot.com) for some of my work!

Comment: THANKS! Even though there was only two things in the envelope, they were amazing. I prefer this over having tons of junk that i don't want. So cool, and totally things I like.
Response: I'm glad! I got that party streamer in New Mexico last fall and when I saw "dia de los muertos" on your profile for some reason I thought maybe you'd like that...? Thanks for the heart ;-)
