About Me

I am a mainframe programmer for an electronic payments processor. At 46 I find myself single with no children. I do however, have 2 cats that were rescued from inside a fire truck when they were 3 weeks old so they are my babies. I am very involved in my church and have a heart for children. I currently teach the 2 year old class but have taught everything from cradleroll to kindergarten.

Even though I've been programming for more than 20 years, I am not a techie kind of person. I just got my first cell phone this past December (it was a present for a friend that likes to text).

I like hockey, we have a minor league team here. I also like the symphony, and going to the theater here.

A few of my favorite things

I love music. I listen to a Christian Rock station. My favorite artists are currently, Thousand Foot Krutch, Toby Mac, Switch foot, Skillet and Fly Leaf. My all time favorite group, however is The Manhattan Transfer (kinda took a left trun there didn't I?)

I read A LOT! My favorite authors are Anglea Hunt, Ted Dekker, Charles Martin, Dee Henderson and Francine Rivers to name a few.

For crafting, I love ribbonry (making flowers out of ribbon), paper crafting (all kinds), needle tatting, painting (on objects, not pictures), and am currently trying my hand at Zentangles (which I am absolutely addicted to). I love to teach any craft I know to others. I've also taught myself a specific craft just so I could teach a class (like needle tatting).

I am all about color. While my favorite color is purple, I like any color in the spectrum, as long as it is bright or has a lot of contrast. The more the merrier, I say.

Comment: Really beautiful! I especially like how you have mounted the background colour onto the balck card.
Response: I am so glad you liked it. It was my first on colored paper and I had a lot of fun. As I said, my very hot summer is what prompeted the colors. A friend cut the circles for me and brought back the black ones saying she thought it would add some snap. Guess she was right.

Comment: Outstanding job Debora. I can''t cut it up either, but I think you've been the final kick to do something I've been "thinking" about and that is to simply do a zt notebook or scrapbook to keep them in. Thanks for putting in the effort. I'm the one blessed by it. I really enjoy doing them too. This was a really fun swap... out of the ordinary. Blessings, Coleen http://vintageterrace2.blogspot.com/
Response: I'm so glad you liked it. Did you notice the "heartbeat" in the middle? I had a lot of fun with that one. Thanks for the heart

Comment: I don't mind having you for a partner twice at all! You do nice work, love your zentangles...
Response: Excellent. I almost didn't send the line one. I have such trouble with just lines since I like the curved patterns. And that one I decided I really liked. So I made myself a copy! :)

Comment: I don't have the words to describe how AMAZING your note cards are!!!!! This was exactly what I hoped for when I started this swap and I couldn't have had a better partner. If only I could rate you higher & give more hearts :) Your work is beautiful. Thank you so much for joining my swap!
Response: Thank you. Believe it or not I am very timid about sharing my tangles so I started swapping to gain confidence. I love it when my partner is amazed. Thanks for the rating and the heart

Comment: What awesome zentangles!! I love getting other people's zentangles to see their ideas for filling! I always draw a design and fill it in. I like the way yours just flow one into another. The envelopes are too pretty to use, though!!! I DO wonder what the mailmen thought of it!!
Response: I'm so glad you liked them. My goal is always to make my partner smile and to give her inspiration. I too think the envelopes I received are too pretty to use. It would have to be for a VERY special occasion and a very special person. Thank you for the heart
