Debbie Kusch

My name is Debbie Kusch and I am a "creative" Late Bloomer!

 I'm so excited to be in Teresa’s flower pot!   
     I met Teresa last October while vacationing in Sedona with my husband. In a conversation about our careers and our passions we were each captivated with each others' story. I felt like I met my soul sister. She has become my inspiration and my biggest cheerleader. I am honored to be chosen to be her first flower.
     I am passionate about photography and anything that has to do with photos.  I have often told people I was born with a camera in my hand.  I have always thought I would end up doing something with photography,  just not sure what. My dad owned a camera store for 43 years, sadly he passed away 6 years ago. I think about his love of photography and feel the desire to keep his legacy alive through me. I'm always thinking about opening a business in his camera store.
     Each note care is handcrafted by me; taking the photo, printing the photo, cutting the paper to size, and carefully adhering all layers individually to each other with a high quality adhesive.  
 The paper used for the cards is recycled.   It was previously used as the cover of an Order of Worship Mass Booklet in my parish and was prayed with by many before it became a note card.  In addition, I prayerfully think about the recipient while creating each card.  This inspired my collection to be called:
                                                          
"Prayerfully Recycled"

For the first time in my life I truly believe in myself and my ability to create, dream, and achieve!  I believe you can , too.
