Video #5 ~ Meet Tracy ~ CraftJunkieToo

Hi, I'm CraftJunkieToo.  Thanks for allowing me to introduce myself and give you a chance to see the face behind the voice on the video's. ÜÜÜ

Who is Craft Junkie Too?

I live in Texas with my  hubby and 2 boys.  By day ~ I am an administrative assistant for a State of Texas facility who provides service to those living with mental disabilities ~ I've been there over 20 years and have worked my way up through the ranks.  By night ~ Craft Junkie Too is a crazy crafter.  I love to paint, create, scrapbook, make cards, and do video tutorials to show you all my style of crafting ~ CJToo style. 


How long have I been crafting?

I have been crafting my entire life (it seems).  I was always the creative one in the family and still am Ü.  I get more credit than I really deserve because I couldn't do it without my faith, family and following of God, His word and belief that He will provide to those who are Faithful.


Why do I do this?

Simple! I love to craft, I love to help others and I love to share!  I am fortunate to have a wonderful belief that good things happen to good people.  Be faithful, love your family, love what you do and love God.  Simple as that!


My Cricut Experience:

I purchased the Cricut on a whim.  I was shopping an after Christmas sale in early 2009 and found it at a very reasonable price.  In other words I didn't go to the store to find a Cricut, it found me and CALLED MY NAME.....IT SAID "YOOOO HOOO TAKE ME HOME!  LOL!
That day I bought it with the thought that if I didn't like it I would return it.  WELL, that never happened.  Purchasing the Cricut has opened up a whole new world for me that I just LOVE.  I searched the net and YouTube for help in learning this machine and along the way unlocked a desire to help others through video tutorials.  I am having a blast and thank all of my friends and followers who like my style of crafting.  Yea!
