Pam’s Designs & Creations

My name is Pamela Gardner.  I am a retired Air Force Master Sergeant.  I served in the Air Force for 23 years and I retired in 2011.  Since retirement I shifted from job to job because it was very difficult for me to work in a structured environment due to my severe Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).  Once we went on lockdown for COVID the walls began to close in on me and my anxiety was at an all time high.  So, for the holidays I decided I was going to make all my family Christmas gifts.  My sister Evelyn had a cricut machine so I would have her print out the names and I would travel to her to get what I needed to complete my gifts.  Well, as luck would have it, I dropped a person name, and I didn’t want to have to drive all the way back to get what I left so I just purchased my own machine, and the rest is history.  I found that crafting helps with my PTSD and anxiety, plus I Love what I do! So, I decided to make it a business to create unique and personalized gifts for others.  I love the feedback that I get when I put a smile on people’s faces.
