Resume

Kim has had a love for arts and crafts since she was a child, she loves to create!  Being able to make something herself that she admired has been very fulfilling.  She has been crafting seriously for 25 years and is primarily self taught.  She started out with a passion for rubber stamping, and when her daughters were born she embarked on a 20 year journey with scrapbooking.  Before technology, Kim was an avid paper crafter and even worked part time in a craft store. Since technology, Kim has developed a love for altering anything and loves to upcycle something old or used into something useful and new.  She loves anything vintage or vintage inspired, collage, and all things shabby chic.  She now does paper crafting such as rubber stamping and scrapbooking, but also makes mini albums, tags, and various type of cards.  Mixed media is also a new favorite and has sparked Kim to start creating canvases, big and small.  Her goal is to continue to learn new techniques and become a part of new and diverse design teams to help broaden her skills.

Kim has a Bachelor's Degree in Social Work and Criminal Justice and for her crafting is her favorite way to combat stress while still being productive.  She is a typical artist/crafter and always has at least 5 projects on her desk at the same time.  Kim hopes to combine her love for people and supporting other artists and crafters by continuing to maintain an online presence as well as personal friendships with much of the crafting community.
