Hi, my name is Krista and I am a work at home mom in a small Kansas town called Coffeyville. My husband and I have a son and a daughter who are my ultimate scrapbook inspiration. During the day I provide daycare for up to twelve children besides my own, and I love sharing my love of art with all of the children, plus I get to work on my own projects during naptime (who doesn't love naptime?!). I have always been crafty and I am always looking for new fun things to try. I also like to cook, read, garden, and sew.
I have been scrapbooking for 5 years, and in that time it has become so much more to me than I had ever known it could be. Scrapbooking helps me to discover my passions and goals in life and it gives me a way to express even my deepest feelings and preserve them for my family.
My style is what I would call "decorative", I like to add special touches to all of my work to make it *over the top* and extra special. I have always been attracted to lots of bling and flowers, plus I love to use color and new color combinations, I can literally fall in love with not only scrapbooking supplies- but home decor or other art because of the colors or patterns on them- I have been known to come home from a shopping trip with a new outfit or a new blanket because "it looked like my favorite scrapbook paper"! I don't follow any written rule in scrapbooking, I do what feels right and looks great- I will try anything!
Krista designed this beautiful "Fun In The Sun" Banner. These pictures don't do it justice! The details are great! Dimension, ribbons, stitching....I just love it all! Krista, where are you going to hang this masterpiece when you get it back from Bella? (just curious!)
I will most definitely hang this in my dining room during the summer- and in my craft room the rest of the time!
