LFYC Summer Brochure

Here it is! The cover of the Summer 2008 Life for Youth Camp brochure. This is the third consecutive year I have designed the brochure for them. When all the editing is completed I will post the entire brochure to the camp web site at www.lifeforyouthcamp.com. Sherri, the camp co-director sent me a wonderful note concerning the brochure, "We absolutely love it. God has certainly blessed you with talent. GREAT JOB VALERIE!"

Summer Sky at Sunset

One of my favorite most recent weavings.

After Harvest

My latest art piece created from fabric, yarn, cheese cloth, and embroidery thread. The fabric was hand-dyed by me, and I did all the embroidery by hand, as well. It has been fused to an 8"x10" canvas board. I officially feel like a farmer's wife after learning how to do fall tillage which is what inspired this piece. It's what I see outside when I look out the window. The piece will be for sale at the BHS Craft Fair next weekend, Saturday, November 3.

My first ever blog entry!

Here we go....I've finally decided to give blogging a try. I have given up on the job search, and I am starting my own business. I am pretty sure it is what God is telling me to do which is perfectly fine with me!! I am working on getting all the proper paperwork filled out, and hopefully setting up my own web site and Etsy shop soon. Wish me luck! ....And please feel free to start sending business my way.

My business focuses are going to be: graphic design, basic web site design, wedding invitations, baby announcements, and fiber arts.
