About Me

This is me!

I am happily married, with two children, a dog, a house rabbit, three guinea pigs, two hamsters and we all live in a rural village in the north of England, UK. I am a school teacher specialising in music and currently teach children aged 8 and 9. I am also a crafts tutor and love to share my passion for all things arty with others.  I contribute regularly to Craft Stamper magazine (UK), and I'm proud to be on the design team for Dylusions for Ranger, and Stampotique Originals. I have had my art published in several publications including Somerset Art Journaling, Stampers Sampler, Artful Blogging, Somerset Studio and Somerset Apprentice. I am also a musician and play in a ceilidh band. I am the QUEEN of MESSING ABOUT! I love nothing more than playing with paper, acrylic paint, old texts, rubber stamps etc etc etc! I also love wine and chocolate and plenty of it.
