We are excited to announce our Next Guest Designer for our Mid-Month Muse–
Thats right.. its our very own Brenda aka Bitsy Howell.
I am a mom of two grown sons that have recently married
delightful young ladies. I am now waiting on the Baby Race to begin. In the
meantime, I am retired and loving every minute of it. I realized when I sat
down to write a bio that I have been a paper fanatic since my twenties. I still
have a hardback suitcase that I collaged with Victorian Ladies cut from a
calendar. I started scrapbooking about 10 years ago, back when everything was
flat. Then, I began card making and even made a little money at that enterprise.
I had lost interest in scrapping until I found the Flying Unicorn. My entire world
did a little flip flop when I saw what Flying Unicorn had to offer. Here was a
group of no drama people that scrapped in layers, added flowers and gushed with
creativity! Oh, I was hooked. Within days I was chatting and being silly on the
Forums and they welcomed me. I became an instant groupie and learned so much so
fast that I could barely pull myself out of the scrap room.
My style still leans toward the
Victorian Era, but it is becoming very hard to put my art into a “style” these
days. I started art journaling over a year ago and am working on my 2nd journal
now. Mixed Media has become my latest passion and I threw myself into it head
first. I love to learn, and I research every new product that I come into
contact with. Someday, I would like to teach classes but I have a lot to learn
before that day comes! I am still trying
to find a way to pull my love for all things Victorian, shabby, steampunk and
flowery into the world of Mixed Media and bright colors. Trust me though, I
will find a way. Until then, stay groovy!
Bitsy will be posting a few sneak peeks of the July Mid -Month Muse- in the forums which will go on sale on 07.15.2013 at 12:01 am ... so stay tuned! In the meantime take a look of some of the creations that Bitsy has done being a member of the Flying Unicorn Forums.
