Valerie, who has been crafting since she was old enough
to hold scissors, can always be found flitting between
projects within a diverse array of hobbies. Being
an amateur photographer with a love of nature, it only
makes sense that Valerie is also an avid gardener
constantly trying to attract wildlife ever-closer to her
lens. But once the sun sets, the birds are roosting, and
the moths are fluttering about the front porch, Valerie
always comes back to her first obsession, paper. It is
common to find Valerie burning the midnight oil in her
craft room - making cards, rubber stamping,
creating jewelry, binding books, reading blogs or
preparing to teach some crafty activity to anyone who
will listen.
