BIO

I’m a Christian, wife, and mother. I was born and raised in the south, currently living in Alabama. Although I’m an industrial engineer by trade, my passion lies with creating art! I discovered card making about 15 years ago as a way to relieve stress and release my bottled up creative juices. I literally felt like a chick ready to hatch – thus my social media name Egghead (just so happens to match my head shape too…haha). So with a small growing family and little time to bust out the canvas and paints, I took to card making as a way to complete miniature pieces of art. I’ve always had a natural God- given talent of drawing. I enhanced that talent with art and design classes from junior high to college to post college. I love to learn and share new techniques from other creatives. I’m always hatching some creative idea and feel so blessed to be part of such a diverse crafting community.
