Marilyn Parker, Creative Paper Designs
Meet Lupine Artisan Marilyn Parker
I started crafting when I was probably seven or eight years old and have been doing it ever since. I had a craft business from 1981 to 1988 while I was a stay at home mom raising my son and my daughter. When my youngest went to school full-time I went to work as a paralegal/legal administrator for a law firm in Augusta Maine, still crafting on a smaller scale. I was involved in many craft shows and also did home parties. I retired from my administrative position in June 2019 after 30+ years.
​
​I decided that designing and creating All Occasion Greeting and Specialty Cards (including Wedding invitations, baby announcements and so much more) is what I enjoy. Since retiring, I now have a little more time to do so. I have started my own business, Creative Paper Designs etc. by Marilyn. I am still doing other crafts as well. Also, my husband and I have an Organic Vegetable business, Gar*Lyn Produce (Veggiesrus2@gmail.com). We grow organic vegetables and I do all the canning of relishes, pickles, jams, jellies, etc. and we sell everything at the local grocery stores.
