Amber

Web, Graphic Art, Social, Newsletters, Ads, Marketing, Photography & Editing, Video & Video Editing, Background Details & Organization,  Crocheting, Quilting, Sewing, Cricut, DIY, Design, & "Cool?" Swag for Shenanigans

Amber I work remotely from Utah but a piece of my heart will always live in Ohio, where I grew up. I don't remember a time before creating, tbh.  My Mom, an artist, taught me to sew & love art before I was 5.  She had me involved in Girl Scouts, 4Hclub, weekly church activities involving crafts, & ALL THE CLASSES.  My Dad taught me some photography, marketing, graphic art, & web design.  My Grandparents & teachers taught me to love sewing, cooking, crochet, quilting, crafts, thrifty DIY, & the outdoors. Combined, they all taught me skills, encouraged my creativity, & started me on my journey to be the logical, yet creative mutt I am today.
I Studied Home Economics in college. 
As a young mother, I taught & managed craft, design, & cooking classes at my local church. I also began exploring and expanding my skills in photography, DIY, crafting, sewing, design, graphic art, and web design.  I eventually started a Home & Garden website.  I was blessed to be able to work with some amazing mentors/friends & companies such as Evite©, Target©, Lowe’s©, Disney© & Amazon©, etc.  I created designs, parties, recipes, & posts for them & I was featured & published on some of their websites & in magazines. 
When my kids were a little older, I worked at Cricut© as a designer.
My interests have since combined, morphed, & expanded into a love of creating & designing from the ground up.  I spend more time on the computer than in front of a sewing machine. I  create products, fabric, clothing, decor, printables, graphics, websites, & rooms on my computer and then bring them to life as items, rooms, & products. 

I feel very blessed to be able to work with Megan, Linda, & the rest of the Imagine That & More Team.
