Kath
http://handmadebykath.blogspot.co.uk/

I live in Devon, UK.  I've always enjoyed crafting and started knitting and sewing clothes for my dolls when I was young.   Since then I've also done crewel and cross stitch embroidery, woodwork, flower arranging, cake decorating and sugarcraft and tried a few other things along the way!  A few years ago my husband gave me a gift voucher for my birthday so I could attend a local cardmaking class - he always jokes that it's been the most expensive birthday present he has ever given me!   I started my blog 'Handmade by Kath' to get feedback on projects for my Certificate in Papercrafts and now use it for entering blog challenges.   My favourite style is CAS, although I enjoy trying different styles and techniques to get out of my comfort zone.

Doris

https://kleidosbastelstueble.wordpress.com/

My name is Doris and I live with my wonderful man – he’s my blog-administrator and we create together sometimes :-) - and our cat, named Sammy in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. I’m a creative craftsmen since 2007 and I love to create cards, no matter what style and with what technique. But it does not always have to be on paper, as I like to try new things and I am open to new ideas. When I use some stamps I will colour them with aquarellcolours. Or I use 3D - projects for my cards.  And this I like to show you on my blog ... which I lead since 2014.
