About Me



Hi, I'm Cynthia, the creator of this website. I like to be the creator of a lot of things in life...Whether it is paintings, drawings, jewelry, small woodwork items, needlework, or any handmade items. My passion in life is to be creative.

cynthiaI love being the artist/creator. When I was in high school, I never had very much money for gifts. But I loved giving, so I figured out things that I could make for gifts. I drew pictures, made cards, wrote poems, and made many other things.

I think now my favorite gifts to give are homemade DVD slideshows. I just love to put so many memories in one spot combined with the perfect music. But I also love painting and drawing pictures for others.

I think any little thing created by hand is a work of art. So to give that gift of art to your loved ones, really shows your appreciation for them.

So let me help you to do that, to give the most unique and thoughtful gifts to others. Let me share my ideas for your gifts. It's what I love to do!

So What Have I Done With This Love?

...I get to share it with you. No really, I love working on my website. This is my outlet to be able to create things, and making some income is a nice bonus.

I have two adorable kids and a husband who works. He is just starting out as an auto mechanic, so it's hard to make ends meet. That's why I've tried to find ways to make an extra income but knew that I didn't want to leave my kids to go somewhere else to work. (I've tried, and I hated it.)

So I dabbled in the thought of selling my art, but didn't know where to begin. I thought I could start a website, but it never came about because I thought it would be too complicated. I knew I wanted to make an income on what I love, but how?

SBI! Monthly Billing Option
That's when I stumbled upon SBI. It stands for Site Build It! It's how hobbies and interests can be turned into a website that earns income. I was a little skeptical at first, because I figured it was another phony get rich quick scheme, but I saw that they promoted the fact that it took time and work. I knew it must be legitimate.

I read and watched everything I could about SBI. I was so intrigued, I especially loved the videos that other SBI website owners made. It all seemed to just click. I could do what I love and earn some income on the side! (And still be home for my kids!!)

I thought I knew what I wanted my site about, but SBI had the tools to help me refine my topic into something I had a passion for and yet was still a profitable topic.

It was slow going at first, but the tortoise always wins. I started my site in the fall of 2008, and have done very well since then earning income. It's mostly through my ads, but I have started selling my own items as well. I get more and more visitors to my site everyday, and it's all so exciting. I look forward to the time I get to work on my website while my kids are sleeping.

SBI can show you how to turn something that you love into income, see how others just like you did it. You can even try it risk free. It takes work in the beginning, but it is all very rewarding.
