ABOUT ME

 

I've been crafting forever as a hobby.  Although my professional journey led me to a technical discipline (I'm a retired Chemist and a Health, Environment & Safety Professional), crafting has always been my passion.

 

I discovered my love for handmade items as a child watching my mother sew clothes.  I made my own hair accessories when I was in grade school.  This love for handmade items grew more when I became a young adult.  I wanted to decorate my own Christmas tree but was tight on my budget.  I went to Divisoria, a big wholesale-market in Manila, and bought my raw materials - fabrics, tulle, laces, satin flowers, beads, sequins, and more!  I also bought my first glue gun.  I enjoyed the process!  This inspired me to create more and explore other crafts - sewing clothes, hair accessories, cross stitch, basket dressing, flower arrangement, beaded jewelries, and paper craft.   

​

I discovered my love for paper crafting and card making when I was assigned by my former employer to work in our Indonesia operations in 2013.  I met Leah, a Filipina teacher who eventually became a good friend.  She introduced me to paper craft and the rest, as they say, is history.
