New 2017 DT Member: Dorlene

Hello, dear friends!

Please, welcome one of our new DT members...Dorlene!



I've been a crafter all my life. My mom encouraged all things creative. Luckily I continued to love creating as I grew older. I started scrapbooking in 2000 and that led to rubber stamping and all things paper crafts. My daughter and I have a small business where we sell things at local boutiques and craft fairs. I still work full time outside the home so it's difficult to do much more than that. I'm currently on three design teams and love pushing myself to new levels.  


I'm happily married for 30 years with four young adult children, one granddaughter and one furry baby, Gracie, our border collie mix.

Visit her Blog: http://craftsinthecommandcenter.blogspot.com/  to see her artwork and please, come back tomorrow to meet another new DT member! 

Thanks for stopping by!

New 2017 DT Member: Caroline

Hello, dear friends!

Our next challenge is coming up in a few days...so, before that, we would like to introduce you to our new Design Team members!!!

First up is...Caroline!


I am Caroline and born in Germany. After my studies, where i missed crafting a lot, I settled in Munich. Working as freelancer in post production companies, I started crafting again. After a stamping party where a friend of mine invited me, I was addicted to Stampin'Up und started as a demonstrator in 2013. I am happy that I can do something i really love and enjoy and at the same time also can make others happy. 
2016 I met Monika at the office and she asked me if I wanted to join the Design Team of Creative with Stamps. 
Thank you Monika :)

Please, visit her Blog: www.scherenherz.de  to see some of her artwork and come back tomorrow to meet another DT member!
