I get to be a part of something really exciting in T minus 2 weeks:  The Brilliance 2014 Conference

Ladies from surrounding cities will descend upon Orange County First Assembly of God church for a weekend of enrichment … and challenges.

I love their theme verse:

The Lord is my Strength and my Personal Bravery.  Habakkuk 3:19

Where do I fit in here?  I’m leading one of the many workshops which kick off the weekend with loads of fun!

I’ve prepared several lively demonstrations of easy DIY projects that are bound to get the creativity flowing!

I’m here to challenge the attendees to Seize the DIY!

A little bit about why I create…

“At Kids’ Camp (when I was 9 years old) God made it very clear to me what His call on my life was:  He was going to use my hands in a myriad of ways to bring glory to His name.  At the age of 9 I had no idea what that meant, but my hands got warm / it felt like they were on fire.

“I now recognize His gifts in moments when I’m holding a baby or praying for a friend or shaking hands with a homeless person or designing something in my studio.  Whether it’s paper-crafting or water-coloring or hot-glueing layers of something together… I pray that He is glorified in my art.  I recognize that I am an image bearer of the Creator … and so I dream. create. inspire. “
