Hi everyone! My name is Penny Hartley, and I love to scrap, stamp, and collect scrapping supplies. I would definitely say that I am hooked, and I cannot even imagine life without scrapping. Of course, without the support of my wonderful family, my husband Scott and our two children Alexis and Bryce, I would not be able to have so much fun stamping and scrapping! I am honored to be a part of the Black Kat design team, and I am really looking forward to get to know everyone better.

 

My name is Juliet Diley and I live in Mississippi by way of Virginia. I have been married to my best friend, Vince for over 20. years now. On top of that we are blessed to have 8 children ranging in ages from 29 to 9. I started scrapbooking about 7 years ago after I was invited to a party by a now wonderful friend. I've always loved 'crafts' but none of them have captured my heart like scrapbooking and stamping. It is an avenue for me to be creative while allowing me to capture family memories and display them in a way that can be shared with this generation and generations to come. 

Howdy from the South! I'm Suzeanne Peak, called Pooka by everyone, including my two daughters. My illustration work under the name Deanne Harper has been published in several role-playing modules, and a trading card game, as well as a DVD showcasing digital art. I've been rubber stamping since the very early 80s, and never grew out of it. I've been an EMT, a wandering gypsy, a bard, a weaver, jewelry designer and creator, costumer, and multi-media artist -- all from a tattooed, pierced, 'heavy metal biker chick' that's pushing 40 with a very short stick.

Hi, I'm Suzann Jones. I feel I am the last person on earth to "discover" scrapbooking. I did my first scrapbook in the spring of 2005, but about a year later, I starting using stamps on my pages. I so enjoyed the stamping that almost all I do now is stamp. When I look at a stamp, I feel it hold so much creative potential for me. I rarely have a plan in my mind when I start making a card, I just like to see where the stamps will lead me! My style is usually simple and clean, but I do like to experiment with styles and techniques because I don't want all my cards to look the same. You can see my work in Stamper's Sampler, Take Ten, Scrap & Stamp Arts, Just Cards, Rubber Stamper and Ready, Set, Create. I am very honored to be part of this team. The stamps at QKD are great and I know they will lead me on a very creative adventure.

My name is Bev Douglas. I am pleased to have been chosen as a royal court member for Queen Kat Designs. I have been crafting all my life and stamping for about 17 years. I come from California, but recently moved to Utah to be closer to my son. My style tends to be Oriental or Classic. I love the red, gold and black combo. I spent a while in Japan in the 1970's and really embraced their culture and style. I not only craft on the Oriental style but I have a lot of home decor' that is Oriental looking. I am a widow of 6 years. My dear husband passed on in December of 2000. It has been a long road and I have found my niche in my stamping room!

I'm Tanis G, and I'm honored to be here with the Queen Kat Design Team! I live in Manitoba, Canada and I've been married to my best friend, Loren for 16 years. We have four {amazing} kids, aged 11, 9, 6 and 3. I started stamping in 2004 and I'm amazed at how fast this industry is growing! My favorite papercraft is cards and right now I spend a big chunk of my papercrafting time creating for publication calls. I love every second I spend with my paper, stamps and ink and am thrilled to be able to ink up with QKD stamps!

My name is Alex Maldonado and I am thrilled to be a Chancellor for Queen Kat Designs! I've been scrapbooking for almost 8 yrs., and also fell in love with stamping about 4 years ago! I am happy to say my addiction to everything related to both has only increased over time! I love being able to transform a stamp or photograph into something that will be cherished for a long time to come. I live in NYC with my bright (and cheeky) 8yr old. son Nicholas; my loving (& better-looking) half, Rae and our 3 birds, 2 dogs & 1 fish. (Don't ask...) I am so grateful for the opportunity to express my creativity through stamping, and I truly hope to convey my love for the craft in my designs for QKD! 

Hey there, I am Nancy G and I live in a small arctic village with my supportive husband and baby daughter. We have one grown son in college. Besides keeping house and taking care of my family you can find me blurfing (blog surfing), paper crafting, or serving in a ministry. It is a blessing to be a part of the Queen Kat Design Team and I hope you enjoy getting to know me and my work through QKD.

Hi, my name is Nina Patena and I'm so thrilled to be part of QKD's awesome team. I'm a stay-at-home mom based in the Philippines, married to my soul mate and mom to a very inquisitive, happy little talker of a boy. I started scrapbooking in the traditional acid-free sense in May 2006. I am also in love with altered art, stamping and writing. It has been a dream come true being in the company of such talent and I'm forever grateful to Queen Kat for letting me be part of this wonderful adventure.

Hello everyone! My name is Toni Armstrong and I am thrilled to be a new member of the Design Team for Queen Kat Designs! I live in beautiful Conifer, CO with my hubby Iain, our two kids, Natalie and Jamie, and our 4 cats and 1 crazy dog. Iain and I are both originally from Scotland but became proud U.S. citizens in 2002 (the Scottish accent is here to stay, though!). I am a stay-at-home mom, a volunteer at my kids’ school and I am also a part-time Criminal Justice student. I have been scrapbooking, stamping, and card making for 8 years and thoroughly enjoy every minute of it! My work has been published in Paper Crafts, Card Creations, Take Ten, Simply Sentiments, Scrap & Stamp Arts, and Just Cards. I love the versatility of stamps and the creative process that takes place whenever I start a project. My style is clean, with embellishments to draw attention to the stamped image. I am very excited to get started with designing for QKD and hope you will stop by regularly!
