Meet The Design Team - Tic Tac Toe Challenge

Felicita Johnson – Challenge Creator – Team X

Hello, my name is Felicita, but my family and friends call me “Lisa” (hint, hint). I live and work in beautiful San Diego, CA, but you can always find me online at lisaluvs2stamp.com. I started my paper crafting adventure back in 2013 when I stumbled upon my first Stampin’ Up card class. I’ve never looked back! Since then, I have become addicted to creating beautiful handmade cards — it’s like food for my soul. When I’m not working or crafting, you’ll find me with my laptop in hand watching YouTube videos and learning new card making techniques. I’m looking forward to sharing my creations with you.

Rosanne Mulhern – Team O

I’m Rosanne and ever since I can remember I always loved paper. So it’s not a surprise that

papercrafting and cardmaking are my favorite hobbies. Although recently, I rediscovered my joy

for cross-stitching. I’ve been stamping since 2000 and honestly my enthusiasm for it has never

waned. Currently, I’m enjoying creating with products from so many of the wonderful

companies out there. And I’m always ready for the next great product (which happens almost

monthly!) I’m Wife (42 years) to my best friend, Mom to three beautiful grown daughters and Nanny to the most adorable two grandsons who are the absolute joy of my life! I give all the thanks to the

Lord for all these blessings!

Vicky Hayes – Team X

Hello, I’m Vicky aka Crafting Clare, which is the nickname my daughter used to tease me with! I live in a small market town in the heart of England in the UK. Before having my family, I was a graphic designer, and when the kids grew older (I must’ve blinked!) I discovered the fun of stamping at a Stampin’ Up party. I was a demo for 5 years but now I create for the sheer pleasure of it. When I’m not crafting, I’m usually careering about the countryside with my sweet golden retriever and her pals. You can find me at craftingclare.blogspot.com and on Instagram at craftingclarecards.

Karren Johnson – Team O

Hi, I’m Karren Johnson from Christchurch, New Zealand. I have been stamping regularly for over 20 years now and was introduced to the hobby by my mum, who invited me to make Christmas cards with her back in 1998. At first I was a bit unimpressed by the whole thing but when I was on maternity leave in 2002 with my youngest, I got bored and started making cards on a more regular basis. This led to an obsession with card-making which continues to this day! To fund this hobby, I have a full-time job as Operations Manager for an electrical contracting company. Home life consists of hubby Pete, daughter Sarah and doggie Dexter. Sadly, our eldest son, Matthew, passed away unexpectedly 3 years ago at the age of 21 and we are still learning to live with that loss. Being on design teams encouraged me to keep stamping through the darkest days and I am so grateful for that outlet. I’m so looking forward to being part of the Tic-Tac-Toe design team.

Jeanie Stark – Team O

Hi, I’m Jeanie Stark and I’m an Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator. I am a retired Pre-K teacher so paper, crafts, and glue have always been a part of my everyday life. I love to create cards, scrapbooks, gifts, etc. It brings me joy to share my projects with others. I live on the eastern shore in Maryland with my sports enthusiastic husband and our adopted rescue dog, Bo. I have two adult children living in different states so we travel a lot. You can follow my blog at www.juststampin.com.

Betty Keefe- Team X

Hello! I’m Betty and am a retired educator (K-12 library media specialist), but some form of art has always been my passion. I am mostly a “flower girl” and love to use various mediums and to try new techniques. My style is definitely CAS with lots of white space.

I have three children and four grandchildren who live all over the USA and England, while I’m here in Lincoln, Nebraska. Always have a book going, play bridge several times a week and love Nebraska football! You’ll find me at www.createdbybjk.blogspot.com and on IG at bjkne0519. I also am a designer for the A Blog Named Hero FB team.

Linda Callahan – Team X

Hi! I am Linda Callahan and I have lived in upstate New York my whole life. I’m a total fan of small towns and four seasons! I didn’t start creating cards until I retired from teaching elementary school. I went to a Stampin’ Up! party and I was hooked. So I am busy in my retirement with two entertaining grandchildren, one wild mini schnauzer…….and stamping! You can find my creations on my blog – https://stampinseasons.blogspot.com/ or on the Splitcoast Stampers gallery where I am known as abbysmom2198.

Karen Rogers – Team X

Hi there I’m Karen from Hamilton, New Zealand. I’ve been stamping and blogging for approximately 15 years. I’m also know as kareN stampZ on social media which is a play on my name and NZ.

In my free time I love to make cards from CAS to dabbling in mixed media. I really enjoy joining in on challenges as it challenges me and it also helps me find my MOJO when it goes missing plus it means I get to use the pretty stamps I like collecting.

I am now retired after working in a hospital laboratory for 45 years, so being creative is a big part

of my day as I have the time to play more. You can find me at www.karenstampz.blogspot.com and on instagram as karenstampz.

Silke Ledlow – Team O

Howdy from Texas! I’m Silke Ledlow. God has blessed me with an amazing husband and three beautiful girls. Not to forget our two fur babies – Cooper (Yorkie) and Brutus (Miniature Schnauzer).

I started stamping a little over 16 years ago. When I’m not crafting, I like to play with our puppies, grill, bake and travel. If you like, you can check out my crafting ideas on my blog, “My Life” – http://silkeledlow.blogspot.com. I’m so excited to being part of this super talented team and I’m looking forward to sharing my creations with you!

Jeanne Knobbe – Team O

I live in Southern California and do administrative work for my husband’s sensor company by day and paper craft at night. His company is located in Hawaii so if I’m not in So Cal I’m usually in Honolulu. I’m mom to two adult daughters and an adorable dog and cat. I have always loved creating with my hands and getting messy. Although I enjoy working in a variety of techniques and styles, my favorite media (at least for now) are alcohol markers and colored pencils. My blog is spectrum-ink.blogspot.com!
