Introductions!

Today I would like to give you the introductions for the newest design team members. It is a little late but it took longer to get everything together than I planned. But after all good things are worth the wait..right?

So, please take a few minutes to learn a little about them and give them all a warm welcome!

Karen Rogers

I've been crafting since 2008 and I enjoy it so much, it's a great way to keep my mind occupied and helps me to relax as my Husband and I are full time carer's for my mum who has Alzheimers. I believe my cards and crafting has improved so much over the past year as I've taken part in more and more Blog challenges, I was asked to be a guest designer on Tuesday Morning Sketches December 2010 which I enjoyed so much and was flattered to be asked as I never felt my work was quite good enough, My freind keeps telling me to apply for some DT work..so here I am, here's a little bit about me, Im Karen and Im married to Mark and we live in the UK Im in my 40's but dont feel it ha-ha...

Siobhan Kline

My name is Siobhan Kline. I am a military wife, mother to 3 little monkeys and a nurse. I started scrapbooking in 2001 after I "swore" I would never do it! I was introduced to stamping in 2003 as a way to make titles in my scrapbooks. I learned to make cards in 2006 and the rest is history! You can see some of my work in various Scrap & Stamp Arts and Just Cards publications. I am honored and thrilled to be part of the talented team here at SSDS!

Suzanne Tarburton

I have a real passion for crafting, I have probably tried everything there is, knitting, cross stitching, painting, scrap-booking. I regularly attend craft fairs selling my wares.
I have just completed wall art painting in my children's bedrooms, some pics on blog if your interested.
But my real passion is card making.
I started a few years ago and realised that I can combine all my crafting pleasures and the addiction to fancy paper, flowers, ribbons inks and paints and most of all rubber and digi stamps took hold. (sound familiar ) lol. This is my blog http://sue-mycraftycorner.blogspot.com/

Suzy Eisenhauer

My name is Suzy - also known as Ike.
Blog Link; http://suzy-ikesworld.blogspot.com/
I am retired at 55 (formerly a police officer for 30 years) and live in Greece with my Hubby, 8 cats and 7 chickens.
I am basically a Fine Art artist, but I love all sorts of crafting, cardmaking, scrapbooking, model making and anything artistic really.
I work every day in my own studio at the house. I am a member of the Kalymnos Art Society and participate in many events/exhibitions and have my own range of piggy banks, which have become extremely popular here and abroad. I am also involved with the Kalymnos Theatre Group and assist them with prop making and artwork for their productions.

Tammy Leighton

I have never been on a design team before and am kinda a newbie in the blog world, but I love it! I am working on building my skills, my ‘team’, and my inspiration base. I try to inspire others they way they inspire me!!! It’s amazing to see such great stuff on all of the blogs!!!
You can find me at…. http://ttscraps.blogspot.com/
I love to craft and have crafted most of my life. I started scrapbooking when my daughter was born 13 years ago. I scrapped off and on until I purchased a cricut last summer. WOW! That started me back up again and I’ve been going strong ever since. Still not caught up on my scrapping though…. J I really enjoy card making and projects. I am having lots of fun paper crafting and would love to challenge myself on a DT. I like that you post the challenges early so I can work on them early if I need to and I have no problem commenting on the entries….that’s a fun part!!
