Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity!, a personal crafting blog!
who: I'm Becca S, a 60+ artsy-craftsy loving blogger from the USA Midwest who has been doing fine arts and practical arts since age 6 with piano lessons. Gradually at age 9, I started 'officially' learned cooking, baking and sewing through 4-H Club. At age 10, learning to play the clarinet for 5th grade beginning band began. Being in a small rural school, I switched to bass clarinet around 9th grade. Flower arranging and nature crafts were added for 4-H and I even competed a few times in FHA organization (now known as FCCLA) doing flower arranging.
where: This post is a non-design team project. It's page #6 in My Mixed Media Mondays Journal.
when: Monday, August 10, 2026; due to needed drying time, I won't be launching the blog post until sometime on Tuesday August 11th.
why: To keep my creative mojo going, I need to take time to just experiment...get messy possibly and let thoughts flow.
