Hello! I’m Patty Blake.
Crafting is something I’ve enjoyed since as long as I remember. Even as a little girl, I loved crayons and coloring books, paper and glue! I’ve dabbled in many crafts, but paper crafts are my first love. My creative style can be described as fun and whimsical. I love layers, twine and sparkle! When creating I love incorporating different textures and using Stampin Up Dimensional’s to give it that “pop!” I have a passion for treat bags, tags and 3D designs. Also, if it’s a shade of green, I’m bound to love it, want it, and own it!
I live in my hometown of Ballston Spa, a quintessential small town in upstate New York. I’m lucky enough to be married to my best friend Michael. He’s the best guy I know. We have two boys, Tyler and Samuel. They amuse us, bewilder us and make us very proud all at the same time!
Some of my favorite things are playing cards, anything chocolate, planning a party, and taking lots of photos with my loved Canon! I’m very social and constantly on the go, but really I’m a homebody at heart. When we travel, which I love to do, always my favorite part of the trip is coming home.
When I’m not papercrafting, I work as a part time dental hygienist, play poker or lunch with “my girls”, knit, read, and spend lots of time with my siblings and their families! My family is everything to me!
