Intro (Rachel) - hello from the Shenandoah Valley

Hello!

I'm Rachel. I'm pretty new to PixelScrapper, so I'm kind of fumbling my way around -- and I hope I'm introducing myself in the right place!

I live in Virginia, with my husband of 20 years and our 5 kids, who are spread out from the oldest at 18 to the youngest at 3 (4 girls, 1 boy). We homeschool/unschool, and I guess you'd probably call me kinda "crunchy" -- I love holistic health, natural living, etc. -- but I don't really think of myself as "crunchy" or health nut or whatever; I just try to be a good steward of me, mine, and the space & resources we're given. "Crunchiness" just kinda flows from that. smiley

Besides holistic health, I also enjoy reading, research, theology, debate, and, of course, crafting. Oh, and I also blog.

To be honest, I'm not much of a digital scrapbooker. I largely prefer the tactile experience of getting hands-on with my crafting. But I'm intrigued by the idea of combining the two, and I also enjoy some graphic design (I'm not necessarily good at it, but I enjoy it), so I like playing with digital elements for other purposes.

Mostly, artsy types of creativity are just not really my strength, so it's important to me to dig in and grow in that area.
