Hello, my name is Robbie. I am so glad you have stopped by to check out my creations. I love sharing my ideas with you and hope I can inspire you with my shares.
All About Me
I have been a papercrafter for over 20 years and have been teaching papercrafting for 15. I love to play with paper and ink and think outside the box to change things up or do it differently. I love clean lines therefore I create simple designs as I know we are all busy and need to be able to produce our cards in a short amount of time.
I love pink, polka dots, stripes, and plaids so you will see a lot of those on my cards. Those who know me realize I also use a lot of bling on my card as “Everything is Better With Bling”!
Products I love
I love so many different products. Not 2 Shabby has some gorgeous pattern paper for card makers – I love pattern paper and matching ephemera so I am always looking for it. If you are into gnomes they have a great variety. I love to play with alcohol ink and Altenew has the refills to go with their markers – a win-win! If you make scrapbooks or folios Uniquely Creative has beautiful feminine 12 x 12 papers. Unity stamps has cute critters with snarky sentiments if that is your thing. I use the images quite often. There are so many great products that it is fun to learn with new things!
Where you can find me
I have several social media sites where you can find me sharing my projects. This is the first place I share but I also share on my Creations In Paper Facebook Page, Creations in Paper You Tube channel, and Creations in Paper on Pinterest.
Online Learning
I have several online learning opportunities. I do several videos on You Tube where I walk you through how to make a card. The specifics are here on my blog so you can use your stash and make your version. I also sell card kits which you can purchase here. This is a great way to get new layout ideas as well as play with products that may be different than what you have in your stash. Every couple of month Vicky Wright and I team up to offer an all day online event. Be looking for those here on my blog.
Local Learning
I hold monthly card making classes in my studio. I have a beginners class which is the second Thursday of the month. I also have Advanced classes on the Third Thursday of the Month. Contact me and I can give you all the details.
Finally
In this day and age with money being tight I love to experiment and extend my supplies by using them beyond the intended purpose as well as using them to replicate the effect of other popular products. I love what I do and would be honored to share it with you!
