Getting to know Maureen:
I'm a St. Patrick's Day baby, living in Beautiful British Columbia, Canada.  I teach Grade 2 full time, am a new wife to Tony and a proud mom to Jake, who graduates this year from Civil Engineering. I started making cards in the 90's (back when heat embossing was the only fancy thing one did on cards), was introduced to Stampin' Up! in 2004, and had my first card blog sighting in 2008.  Then I was really hooked again.  I started my blog in July 2009 so I could participate in Verve Stamps 2nd Anniversary and have never looked back!!  I love the creative outlet card making gives me as well as the community of fabulous cardmakers.   It is an honour to be Guest Designer this week for the Card Patterns sketch.
