about

Welcome
My name is Lesley; thanks for stopping by my craft blog.  I’m a teacher living (and crafting) happily ever after with my husband, Lucas, and our two dogs, Oliver and Winston. This is the blog for my professional crafting portfolio, which is located over at www.thepinktoque.com. You can buy The Pink Toque goodies on Etsy.

I’ve always been crafty.  Not one to show favouritism to one craft over another, I’ve willingly had craft-ADD for many years now.  My crafts include soap making, sewing, painting, knitting, digital scrapbooking and crochet.  But if it’s crafty, I’ll try my hand at it.  I’ve been painting for more years than I can remember, sewing for three years, knitting for almost 4 years, & digital scrapbooking and crocheting for nearly two years.  I’m an active member of Ravelry and have a few free patterns there.

For digital scrapbooking I proudly use My Memories Suite software by Polaroid/Story Rock.  I highly recommend it for anyone of any digi scrapping skill level! (Read my review of the software here.)  I use Photoshop CS2 to design all of my digital scrapbooking freebies. You can see my digital scrapbook for examples of how I use My Memories Suite.
