We'd like to introduce to you the new CASology design team! With over twenty-five applicants, we had some tough decisions to make! We're happy to announce the new CASology design team!
You're seeing some familiar faces as well as not two, but
three new ones! We'd like to introduce to you...
Can I
just say, “Mind. Blown!” I'm Deidre (last name
Payne) and I’m beyond thrilled to join CASology and this fantastic host
of card
artists. I currently live in Hampton, VA and work as a pharmacy manager.
I create at all hours of the day and night, and my doggies (Scribble
and Wifi) sit at my feet and
make me hop around them to get to all my supplies. Teaching, sharing,
collaborating, and meeting new crafters are passions of mine. I started
with
paper crafts in 2011, dabbling in scrapbooking. The whirlwind of the
crafting
world snatched me up and I just went with it. I love graphic designs and
bright colors; the unexpected; and lots of techniques, but a CAS
result. I hope to bring you some sparks of inspiration here at
CASology and be inspired by you as well!
I am so excited to be joining the CASology Design Team and working
alongside these extremely talented and inspiring card makers. I came to
card making through scrapbooking and was immediately hooked when I
discovered the online challenge world and blogging. Although I've played
with a few different styles, CAS is what I love most. Long ago I worked
in the corporate HR world but for the last 18 years I have stayed at
home with our daughter (18) and son (17) and been lucky enough to make
moves with my husband's career that have taken us from Vancouver to
Seattle to paradise.
I am thrilled to join the CASology team in 2016. Since I was a little
girl, I’ve been a fan of pretty stationery, colorful paper, and art
supplies so it was wonderful to find this hobby of card making and paper
crafting 4 years ago. I started making cards out of necessity but once I
got messy playing around with stamps and inks I couldn’t stop. I’m from
NJ and am blessed with a wonderful husband and three daughters very
supportive of my creative outlet. Nothing makes me happier than to see
my girls pull out the scrapbooks on their own just to see their photos
and read their stories or to put a pretty handmade card in the mail. I
am humbled to be amongst this group of creative crafters who have
inspired me on many occasions and look forward to spreading the love of
all things CAS.
Please give each and every one of them a warm welcome! We're so excited to have them joining the team and look forward to the inspiration they provide in the months ahead!
