Hello and Happy Friday!
Today the Fussy and Fancy girls
are very happy to announce our
very talented guest designer
Here is a little bit about Karen:
I became interested in paper
arts at the age of 11
and thus started my decoupage journey where
anything that didn’t move would be decoupaged.
I started making cards on the computer about
twelve years ago and did that for several years,
drifting into making cards 'by hand' seven years ago.
My love affair with stamps began in earnest in the past
six years when my best friend moved out of state. I really
missed her and felt a connection to her by making hand
made cards which were sent to her. So from that point
things just snowballed and I'm now totally hooked.
I'm always looking for new techniques and love to make
my own backgrounds. I really enjoy the creative outlet
of making little works of art and every day is an
adventure in the stamping world.

card. The design paper you have

card. The design paper you have
