I’m so glad you’ve stopped by my little corner of the world. Whether you’re looking for hand lettering instruction or general craft inspiration, I can’t wait to join you on your creative journey!
I’m Amy, an artist, teacher, and author who also happens to be a wife and the mama of two amazing boys. I’ve been blogging since 2011 and lettering since October 2016.
I love coffee, Jesus, good jokes, and people who keep it real. I hate to cook but love to eat, and could binge watch Psych all day. I’m an adoptive mama who has been to China and knows all the feelings that come with raising a child who isn’t yours by birth. I can ballroom, Latin, and swing dance, and I’ve written six books (so far)! More about me? Aw, shucks. Click here

I absolutely love to teach and to share the joy of creating with everyone I “meet,” whether online or in person. That’s why I created a library of FREE RESOURCES just for you. Click on the links below to check out any and all of what I have to offer.
Although much of what you’ll find here is related to my favorite type of art, hand lettering, you’ll also find tons of other general craft projects including jewelry, home decor, painting, crochet, & furniture upcycles.
