I am retired now and spend most of my day in my craft room working on cards and papercrafting projects. The little poodle in my picture is my crafting buddy. He loves to sit on my lap and watch me work.

Hi, I'm Kimberly! I've ben a crafter in one form or another since I was little, and still do a variety. One of my favorties for the past few years is creating cards with stamped images. Still a kid at heart I guess, because I sure love to color! I'm so happy to have been asked to be a part of this fabulous team of designers, and to have the opportunity to create with the adorable Wags n Whiskers images. :)

Hello to everyone! I'm Jenn and so excited to be a part of the team. I am a registered nurse, hospice being my specialty, but currently am staying at home with my kiddos... all 5 of them, ages 20, 17, 9, 2 and 3 months. Quite a spread, huh? lol. I have been an on and off crafter, dabbling in quite a few different things and have recently fell in love with making cards about four months ago. I am the very shy and quiet type, so not too sure what else to say :) Thanks so much for reading and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Hi! My name is Yolanda. I have been doing some kind of paper craft since I was young, but I started making cards about 6 years ago when I was invited to a Stampin' Up card club. I was hooked.

I live in Jacksonville, FL with my Hubs and my two boys, 14 and 12. 

This is my first DT opportunity. I am beyond thrilled and awed that I am allowed to be working with such talented and amazingly creative geniuses!


First I have to say this – Hello, my name is Karen Christensen (aka: busybusyhoneybee and/or Karen C) and I am a stampaholic! Okay, now you say “hello Karen”! I have been a stampaholic for many years now. If I am not creating cards I’m looking at things wondering what I could do with it on a card. The reason I'm called busybusyhoneybee is because I can't sit still. I have to keep busy! I work full-time for one of the local Boise, Idaho hospital, I'm an Ordained Minister (ordained online) and perform weddings most weekends and some week nights during the spring/summer, I perform on the Thunder Mountain Railroad in Horse Shoe Bend, Idaho, plus I design for OSAAT, Fred, She Said, Create With TLC, Robyn’s Fetish, Incy Wincy Designs, Whoopsi Daisy, and am one of two DT Coordinators for TCCCB. I'm also a mom of three, ages 23, 19 and 13. I've spent almost 21 years with my best friend/husband. Who can ask for anything more? Me! I get to design for Wags N Wiskers now too!

I’m Lia and I live in the Netherlands. I’m married and we have 6 children, five boys and 1 girl.  We live in Zierikzee on a farm and in the summer we sell pumpkins and then we are very busy with this.
I start cardmaking 14 years ago, and in the begin I make cards with 3d and in the year 2003 I start with scrapbooking and it was so nice to do. In 2006 I start making scrapcards with stamps, and that makes me happy every day.
Due my illness MS I can’t my householding alone , because sometimes I’m so tired. So I’m happy when I’m cardmaking.
I’m so happy that you’ve got me in your team, I can’t wait to start with those wonderful stamps.


My name is Susan and I have crafted all my life in some form or another. I am retired and live in the Northwest of England with my husband. I have two children all grown up and two beautiful grandsons. Being retired gives me loads of time for crafting - bliss!

My name is Gemma and a craftaholic, i love to get messy with my crafty stash at every opportunity...I suppose I am just a typical crafter!!

I am a mum to 4 handsome boys and I am also very fortunate to have a very patient and craft tolerant partner :)


Tamara - Slovenia
Hi, I'm Tamara. I live in a small village in Slovenia. I'm a teacher of geography and sociology but I work with small children (6-8 years) who inspired me to become a serious crafter. I have a five months old baby girl which will have a full room of papers, stamps, dies and other crafting material to play with, when she grows up. Besides crafting I have a greenhouse full of orchids and three lovely (fat) cats. The thing I love the most on my cards are paper flowers. I just can't get enough of them. I'm really flattered to be a part of this amazing team, because this is my first GDT opportunity. Hugs! Tamara


And we still have Audrey, Jackie, and Tanya on the team as well.

Please join us in welcoming the new team!!
And come back tomorrow for our new challenge.
