Annette's Paper Palace

My crafting journey started many years ago with scrapbooking before I eventually found my love for cardmaking. In the beginning, my cards were definitely more “creative chaos” than masterpiece — but my best friend, who was like a sister to me, was incredibly talented at cardmaking and taught me so much along the way. After she passed away, I stepped away from crafting for quite a while because it just wasn’t the same without her.

Now, being disabled has limited some of the things I can do, but crafting found its way back into my life. I’ve spent countless hours watching videos, learning new techniques, and growing my skills little by little. I still have a long way to go before I feel as talented as many of the amazing creators I admire, but every project reminds me why I fell in love with paper crafting in the first place.
