About Me

I am a Christian, 60 year old husband, dad and grandfather. I have been married since 1989 and we have two adult children, a daughter (math teacher) and son (pharmacist), daughter-in-law (4th grade teacher). And a cute as they come granddaughter and grandson!!

I have been a rubber stamper for over 40 years. I have over 3000 rubber stamps but still find a few new designs to add each year.

I am teaching craft class and participating in a few makers markets.

Favorite Crafts

I love rubber stamping, cards and AT Card and Coins primarily. I have recently focused on journal making. I enjoy altered arts, boxes, bottles, blocks. I like to learn about other arts and craft areas such as watercolor, calligraphy and book binding.

I have added jewelry and wood buring to my "things to do in the future" list of projects.

Favorite colors: blue, green, purple.

Favorite designs: Iris flowers (my wife's favorite!), mountains, trees, hot air balloons, keys, clocks/watches, doors, windows, airplanes, Irish related, numbers, fountain pens, vintage cars, vintage telephones, steampunk, Tim Holtz style.

Other Favorites: old dictionary pages, quotes, numbers related things.

Alway interested in a good visual pun.

Comment: David, thank you for the Cheez-It chunk! Great postage stamps! Your ink stamps are very cool! Also, I’ve been to CO & loved it. I considered it among other states for retirement, but then all the fires started being an annual event.

Comment: Great ATC, David. Those videos definitely paid off. I feel the same way sometimes about joining and I am usually glad I joined the swap and challenged myself to complete it. Thank you very much for the extras. I will most definitely use them in future projects. Great swap.

Comment: Hi David! First, yes, I do miss all the back-to-school prep. As empty-nesters, we miss a lot of things about having the kids at home. Thank you so much for the great tucks and tags. Your pockets are beautifully made and those fall gnomes are delightful!
