Hello again and welcome back to the Fantasy Stampers Challenge Blog.

I hope you all enjoyed meeting Alison on Monday. I'm back today with details of the next member of my brand new Design Team - please give a big warm welcome to:

Hi my name is Sandra (Sand).

I live in Pembrokeshire, South Wales and am married to a very supportive husband with 2 gorgeous sons and a mad dog!

I have always been a bit crafty and enjoyed making stockings for my boys at Christmas time. I started crafting after making a card for a friend instead of buying one and now you can't stop me! 

I love to stamp whether it be rubber or digis and create cards and projects with my Cameo. I also love my melt pot and sharing ideas with people. I love all sorts of crafts and I also demonstrate for Wow Embossing powders and demonstrate in craft shops.

You can see my work at:

Well, that's member number four and I'm really looking forward to working with Sandra on my new venture too.

Please keep popping back and see what my new Design Team have in store for you over the next few weeks before launch.  Don't forget to pop Saturday 4th January in your diaries - ready for our first challenge ever!!

Big hugz, Jan xx

Hello and welcome back to the Fantasy Stampers Challenge Blog.

First of all I would like to say a huge 'Thank You' to all my new followers for the support and words of encouragement in my new venture - it means a lot.

Now, onto some exciting news - I would like to introduce you to the next member of my brand new Design Team, so please give a warm welcome to ...

Hi, I am Alison aka Ali.

I am 56 years old and a retired medical secretary.  I live on the edge of Dartmoor National Park between Ivybridge and Tavistock.  I am married to Mr Grumpy who spoils me rotten and we have two grown-up daughters - Pauline the eldest is married and has two daughters by the name of Nicole 22 and Jessica 17, all are taller than me!   Sarah is the youngest at 36 and has come home to live after living in London - she wanted to be nearer to us, can’t get much closer than she is as she is staying with us until she gets back on her feet with a new job and flat. We also have two furry friends who live with us, one is Bella our little Jack Russell and the other is our little ginger nut kitten who goes by the name of Toby and is an unholy terror.

I started making cards in 2007 and the bug caught and I am afraid there is no cure, so will have to keep the virus at bay by buying more and more crafty things - the only medication there is for this particular virus!   I also make cold process soap and candles which I enjoy and sell quite a bit of - one of these days I will have to make up my mind about getting a web site, but then this moves from being a hobby to a business and I'm not sure I want to  go down that route yet. 

I am on two other design teams and am over the moon that I have been chosen to join this team, especially in its infancy and hopefully longer if I am allowed.  You can see my work at:

Well that’s enough natter from me - I shall look forward to seeing all your creations when we are up and running - please do come and join in the fun. 

Well, that's member number three and I'm really looking forward to working with Ali on my new venture.

Please keep popping back and watch out for our next new DT member later on in the week.

Big hugz, Jan xx

Hello and welcome back to the Fantasy Stampers Challenge Blog.

I would like to introduce you to the very first member of our Design Team - a great crafty friend of mine, which some of you may already know and have seen around blogland.

Hello, I am Carole, aka Caz and Cazro in blogland.

I live in the North East of England, between Durham and Newcastle. I am married to a very understanding and encouraging guy and we have two sons, who have given us a total of 5 grandsons and 1 grand daughter. I am a happily retired Nurse Manager.

Over the years I have delved into many crafts, but in 2003 I stumbled upon paper crafting, when watching it on TV. My interest began with scrapbooking and mini-books, which I still enjoy and with 6 grandchildren I have lots to record!  I later added ATCs, Tags, card making and box making to my list of paper crafts.

I love to learn and teach others of new techniques and I run a small stamping class at home. I am so lucky to have my own craft room; the Playroom.  My obsession is stamping and playing with inks and generally getting in a mess. I love to experiment and like most addicted crafters I try to craft every day.  

I started my blog in the middle of 2010 and I have met so many old and new friends whose craft work I greatly admire; I find inspiration on every blog I visit.

I am also on several Design Teams and you can see my work at:

Well, that's member number two - our DT call is still open and if you would like to join us full details can be found HERE.

Hugz, Jan xx
