About Rhonda    
When I was a fine arts major in college we used to look down on the "graphic design" majors and art education majors, thinking it wasn't "real" art. And certainly "crafting" wasn't considered art. What did we know? A year after college I became a graphic designer at an advertising agency and loved it. And I have always been crafty in some form or another. If I could use my hands to make it, I wanted to try it.

I quit my graphic design career after my first child was born and to fill the creative void I became even more involved with crafts. I discovered scrapbooking a few years later and dabbled in that for a short while before I discovered stamping. I was sidetracked for 5 years by my Stampin' Up! career as a demonstrator. Went out and use other products I rediscovered scrapbooking and by that time it had boomed and there were wonderful embellishments (not just stickers, stencils and decorative scissors), papers on just about every subject, and lots to choose from.

I always wanted to teach art and I believe that each person has some creativity they can tap into, if they can just get past the mental hurdle of thinking that they aren't talented. Working at Just 4 Fun has been a dream come true for me. I love the work and I love to teach. I look forward to everyday that I get to work. I always leave feeling better than when I walked in the door.

I have been published in several magazines such as "Rubber Stamper", "Stamper's Sampler", "Somerset Memories", and I have sold work to Daisy D's Company. I was also on the design team for scrapbookdreamer.com for a year. I have recently begun scrapbooking for individuals and find that very rewarding and fun.

My husband has gone back to school to get a degree in art, and recently won "Juror's Choice" award for a painting that was accepted into an art show. By day he is a computer programmer. Thankfully he understands my "need" to be creative. My sons are 11 and 10 and my daughter is 8. They love having two parents who are artists. I see their potential shining through already.
