First, Let me introduce to you Alina Florea from Norway

I am a former teacher of English from Romania. I love crafting of all types and I think this is because I come from a family where almost everyone is skilled at something: painting, sewing, wood carpentry, looming etc. I have been experimenting since I was in kindergarden, but I 5 years ago was the moment when I seriously started.

From my first butterfly punch, I now have a small crafting room where I love experimenting and playing with supplies. Because we, my hubby, our little puppy and I, temporarily live in Norway and I am currently unemployed, I have a lot of free time to make things that I think bring a little something to a consumerism intoxicated world.

Alina created this fabulous step card following Jen's Video Tutorial.

Let me introduce One Crafty MRS -Sharon Gerrard -Cameron from Canada

Hi there, my name is Sharon. Arts and Crafts was always my favorite subject in school. I loved working with paper, glue, and scissors right from the get-go and would always look forward to what I might create. Eventually I got into card making and now enjoy using my free time to carefully and thoughtfully craft cards for my friends and family.

I LIVE to stamp, color, and create and I look forward

to sharing a piece of my heart with you.

Let me introduce to you Donette Robertson from the US

My name is Donette and I have been crafting all my life. I got into scrapbooking in 1992 when my first son was born. From there it just kept growing. I now do all things paper crafting including scrapbooking, card making, 3D, digi stamping, adult colouring, and zendoodling.

I am also a decorative artist.

I can't say what technique I like the best
as they are all so much fun!

Finally, Let me introduce you to Annie Collins from the US

Hello everyone - I am Annie, I have been crafting for my entire life. My mother taught me to sew at age 4. I fell in love with paper crafting and really got into making layouts and cards in 1998 when my second child was born.
I have been doing it ever since.

I have 3 amazing children and a wonderful husband that I create layouts about. I love doing mixed media backgrounds on my layouts and I really love making scene cards.
