By Patty

I’m a single mom of 3 children, ages 13, 10 and 3. I have suffered from Anxiety and Depression most of my life, but was diagnosed and started treatment in July 2006. It’s been a long, hard road to travel, and I owe most of the credit for my recovery to “B”. He’s my angel, he saved my life from a million miles away. He was my source of strength when I had none left, he was the only person I could be totally serious with one minute and totally stupid with the next. B was in my life for a reason and a season, sadly, we have lost touch. He taught me so much over the months in which he talked me thru the darkness, and I have been able to take some of those lessons and pass them on to others. I sincerely hope they helped someone. And that is how I came up with the name for this blog. B is an angel, and in passing on his generousity and wisdom, I have become a SecondhandAngel.

I recently decided I wanted to start designing my own scrapbooking kits, and I will be using this blog as a place to showcase my kits, as well as give them away as freebies. I have gotten so many amazing digiscrap supplies from some amazing designers that give their stuff away that I decided it was time to give back on that front as well. So this is me, paying it forward.

Anyways, that’s me in a nutshell.

Oh I should warn you, some days the nutshell comes complete with a spanky white coat and padded walls. lol
