Fiona

I am delighted to have been asked to be a Guest Designer for Creative Artiste challenge blog. I have been married for 37 years this year and have two children and one grandchild and one on the way - so exciting! My husband and I are now retired and live in a beautiful part of Wales. I have been crafting for over 20 years and have run my blog for nearly the same time. I am a member of quite a few Design Teams which I find really helps keep me motivated. I am also the owner of the popular Facebook Group The Joy of Sets which has nearly 3,000 members from all over the world who love to craft.

Our first talented Guest Designer for November is ....

Mia

Hello! I am Mia. I am married to a wonderful husband and work as a senior scientific officer in the public sector in Athens, the capital of Greece. I love animals and I have canaries and cats. I love art journaling, mixed media, and even digital creations. While I love coloring and making cute, elegant, vintage or romantic paper crafts, I often use non-traditional colors or try different styles or techniques. I also add collage and drawing, making quirky images. I am a multi-crafter and enjoy painting, sewing, stitching, crocheting, and making jewelry and cosmetics. I also love writing poems and taking photos of nature (sky, sea, flowers, trees and critters). You may see my creations on my blog, https://craftartista.blogspot.com/

Our second talented Guest Designer for November is ....

Leslie

My name is Leslie Turner and I live in beautiful Colorado (USA). My husband and I have four grown children, three grandsons and three granddaughters, all scattered around the US. I began scrapbooking 45+ years ago, so long ago that all the fun papers and embellishments we use today hadn't even been thought of, and then graduated to card making. These days I would definitely be considered a crafting junkie and really enjoy creating all things paper - handmade cards, 3-D projects (paper shoes and purses, mini albums and gift bags). I dabble in mixed media which I'm finding I like more and more! I'm basically a clean crafter although I do enjoy lots of layers and getting inky occasionally. I truly love inspiring people to get crafty and I’m always inspired by other paper artists. Thanks so much for inviting me to guest for the Creative Artiste Challenge Blog!

I'd love for you to follow me on social media!

Our first talented Guest Designer for October is ....

Katrina (ScrappyHorses)

Hi! Katrina here from ScrappyHorses and I’m delighted to share with you here at Creative Artiste; thanks so much for inviting me! When I’m not creating and Copic coloring, I can be found in the barn with my horses, spending time with my German Shepherd, or teaching oboe. I also enjoy listening to ’70’s music, hanging out with my kids, and eating ice cream with my grand-girls. I love old/vintage, scrappy anything: crafts, books, photos, horses. I’m a dabbler and enjoy several creative mediums. You can find me trying just about anything from bookmaking to photography projects to digital layouts. I don’t have a style per se; I find it safe to acknowledge I’m not CAS! Too messy for that! ; )

Sabina

Hello. My name is Sabina. I live in a small country Slovenia. I've been creating for about 10 years - greeting cards, faux books, envelopes... but lately I prefer to create something in the mixed media technique.

I have my own blog and facebook page and I'm working on a few Design Teams.
