Hello friends, thanks so much for stopping by.  I am excited to be FINALLY able to share that I am joining some of the most amazing Artists in the Little Birdie Crafts Design Team - you can read all about it below - direct from the Little Birdie Blog. :D

Hello crafty folks,

We are enthralled to welcome abroad our lovely new Design Team for 2018. We would like to introduce to you 10 extremely talented and passionate crafters from around the globe who are going to inspire everyone with their extraordinary creations. We must admit that it was a herculean task to narrow down the team from the large pool of fabulous applications that we received. Thank you to everyone who sent in their projects and we wish to continue to see your jaw-dropping creations.

This year we have had many interesting developments and have added a whole new range of Mixed Media products, Embellishments, Handmade Flowers, Paper packs and more! Our Design Team members will primarily focus on our New Mixed Media Releases and gorgeous Handmade flowers and we couldn’t be more excited about that! Our team members come from nine different countries with tons of creativity and out-of-the-box ideas. We are looking forward to sharing exquisite tutorials that each one of them will bring to the table over the next six months and hope that you will join us in welcoming them!

Without any further wait – let’s meet and hear from each of the members:

I am Kathy Clement, and I have loved paper ever since I can remember. While I am primarily a card maker, I also love to create mini albums, canvases, altered art and even scrapbook layouts.

I was drawn to Little Birdie Crafts when I saw their gorgeous, realistic flowers and their lovely primed chipboard. I’m very excited to be on the Little Birdie Crafts Design team, and look forward to sharing lots of crafting tips, tricks and techniques with my fellow crafters.
