New Guest Designers

We're so excited to announce two additional guests to the Wags 'n Whiskers team!!

Please welcome from the USA...Kristen Hi, My name is Kristen Catalano, and I live Nashua, NH with my hubby, who I have known since 7th grade, and My daughter Abbey (9), and My son Ryan (7), along with our two furbabies (Shih Tzus) Princess and Remy. Besides playing with paper and markers, I am currently a Full Time nursing student. I have been stamping and creating cards for almost 8 years. It wasn't until I put a copic in my hand when I decided I completely LOVE to color. I consider myself a cutesy kind of stamper. I am looking forward to being a part of the Wags N Wiskers DT!

And now welcome from the UK, Vicky....
Hi I am Vicky, I am a 34 year old stay at home Mum to Edward whom is 4 and Henry whom is 3 in a few weeks time. I got into cardmaking while on bedrest whilst pregnant, when my husband brought me a quilling set. From this I moved onto decoupage sheets until I was introduced to stamping by my best friend Cathy and now I am very addicted! I am lucky that I have a craft room where I can go and create when the boys are asleep or at preschool/school. I can definately say that the friends I have made through this hobby have kept me going through the dark days of PND. My prefered mediums are either my beloved copics or distressed inks. I love all pretty papers and ribbons and lace, and are often very loathed to cut into them, some I just take out. look longingly at, and then put back! I am so honoured to be asked to be a guest designer on such a talented team and to work for two wonderful and kind people in Nikki and Lacey
