Elle

Hi everyone! I'm Elle, AKA Empire of the Cat, currently living in the Scottish countryside. There has always been paint and paper in my life for as long as I can remember, and I have been drawing since I was a kid. These days I do most of my art in journals and junk journals, with a few tags and ATCs etc thrown in the mix. I love mixed media and recycling as there are so many options available - maybe too many! LOL I also like crochet especially in the winter and I'm working on two blankets at the moment. I also like cats (I have three), being in nature, gardening, baking, and books, and I am usually listening to audio books in my studio. I have been blogging since 2005 and you can find me at Empire of the Cat, where I share my arty adventures.

Gerrina

Something about me: I have been a crafter all my life, started with needlepoint, knitting, crochet and more, I went on with making photos and making photobooks before I even knew that the way I did that was called scrapbooking. I bought a few stencils and text-stamps and that was it; I was hooked on stamping!

From that moment on I haven't looked back and tried as many techniques as I could and always have fun making projects with stamps, stencils, ink, pigments, powders and pastes and so much more...

Ella

Hello everyone!
I'm Ella, which is a polish diminutive of Elisabeth. I come from Poland but since 2006 I live near to Ratisbon, Bavaria, Germany with my family. I have two sons (11 and 16).
I love to crochet and knit, I also draw and paint. I've been interested in scrapbooking and cardmaking since 2016. I think it's some kind of art too and I think some experience from painting can be helpful in scrapbooking. For me it's a wonderful way to spend my free time. I invite you to visit my blog Moje Craftowe Przygody, which means My Crafting Adventures.

Majda

I am very happy to be invited to create on the Creative Artiste Mixed Media Challenge blog as a Guest Designer for March. I have been passionate about art and creativity my whole life. I only discovered card making at the end of 2015 and since then I have been creating every day and loving every moment. I have made many creative friends along the way.
My style? I am interested in working with different materials and techniques, such as vintage, mixed media, I love stamping and cutting.
Best regards from Slovenia, Majda

Lia

Hello!

I am Lia and I have been a keen crafter all my life. I love all kind of papercrafts, like cardmaking in different styles, such as vintage, mixed media and a lot of stamping and die cutting. I can spend hours in my craftroom playing with all the materials I collected in more than 30 years. I am so happy being a member of some design teams, so I can use all my stuff in different ways. I work for several Dutch craft magazines for over 25 years now and get a lot of nice ideas from other crafters. But I also like making cross stitched embroideries and reading a good book. So: never a dull moment!!

Lia

AND

Granne (Sari)

I'm a Finnish mother of 2 adult girls. One still living with me, <3 , with her white super cute bunny. I've been stamping since 2011. I got started when my neighbour introduced me to the world of stamping and paper crafting in real life and in blog land; that's how my blog also got it's name: Granne (=neighbour in Swedish).

Usually I make cards, but do love making ATCs, tags, index cards, Art Journals, altered items, and, and, and ... what ever seems to be fun and inspires me. Sometimes things work out nicely, sometimes not, but I have fun creating.
