Hi, friend!  I’m so glad you stopped by today!  I’m Amy Latta, and in March of 2011, I started a little blog called One Artsy Mama with the hopes that my little piece of the internet would be a place where people could come to create and be inspired.  I sincerely hope that’s happening today!

Here’s a little bit about me:

I’m a wife, a mother, and artist…which means I’m always busy and usually messy!  I have a B.A. in English from McDaniel College. and worked for four years as a teacher in the public school system. I also worked as a ballroom, latin, and swing dance instructor before making the decision to start my own business.

Here on the website, I share a variety of project types including home decor, fashion, kids’ crafts, sewing, jewelry, crochet and more. My favorite topic, though, is hand lettering. I have written five books on hand lettering, the first of which has sold over 125,000 copies and been translated into Portugese! I also have a regular “getting crafty” segment on the lifestyle show Good Day PA and share projects on KSL Studio 5, SA Live!, Great Day Live Tampa, AM Arizona Midday, Hello Iowa, AM Northwest, WBAL TV 11, WJZ 13, Midday Maryland, and Hallmark Home & Family. 

I am a proud member of the Tombow Creator Crew, and I also create content for Scorch Marker, Missouri Star Quilt Co, DIY Pro Studios, and Cricut.

In 2017, I experienced the adventure of a lifetime as our family expanded through international adoption.

I am happiest when creating something and enjoy making all kinds of projects with my 14 year old “Little Crafter” and my 15 year old “Scout.” In my spare time {if there ever is any!}, you can probably find me at Starbucks.
