~Brag Day!

Ok it is time once again for me to Brag a little bit about some Etsy Friends and let in on a little bit about them and there shops.

Today I am Bragging about Kellie of http://www.artboxdesigns.etsy.com/

Here is a bit of info about me. First of all many people may not know is I met my husband Tom on the internet back in 1997. We dated long distance for 18 months and he moved to California where I lived and we married March 28 1998. We love to Cruise and just returned from a 2 week cruise in Europe. I Love fall in Las Vegas, we are planning a day trip to Zion Park next month to see all the wonderful fall colors.We have a house full of pets two cats and two dogs they are constantly entertaining us. I've got two daughters and one grandson and a granddaughter coming in Dec. Life is good to keep my life in harmony and balanced I chant daily I'm a buddhist and we believe a positive attitude creates positive results. It works!

For my creative side I've found I get bored quickly so I'm working on tons of things at once this drives my husband crazy. I love working with Hot Glass creating jewelry and Art pieces. This lead to creating other kinds of jewelry using natural stones, Swarvoski crystals and other mediums.Many years ago I worked with Leather and am going to get back to working with that as well. My first artistic love was drawing, prisma charcoal, pencil drawings and pen and ink. So I may be adding these to my eclectic site.

Work: I am a freelance graphic designer and I'm lucky enough to have a few ongoing clients that keep me quite busy.

Here are a few of her Favorites from her Etsy shop!
