Announcing the CAS(E) this Sketch Design Team!

WOW, it was a difficult task going through the submissions for the CAS(E) this Sketch Design Team. There were so many extremely talented designers that applied! We finally narrowed it down to 8 designers and believe me, we could have added a lot more! Thanks so much to everyone that tried out for the team!!! 

Jackie Rockwell

Creator/Coordinator/Sketch Designer

I’m a wife, mother and grandmother to a wonderful family that I treasure. Currently I'm a freelance graphic designer, I love my work but also have a passion for all things related to stamping and cardmaking. My favorite style of cardmaking is clean and simple, I also dabble in other styles as well. I created the CAS(E) this Sketch challenge blog to be a place where cardmakers could be inspired and experiment with using CAS sketches. I’m so excited to have the opportunity to work with this group of amazing designers!

It’s my pleasure to introduce you to the CASE(E) this Sketch Design Team!

Hi, I'm Nathalie from the island of Mauritius. I am a stay at home mom to a three year old little princess and one year old twin boys. I've always been attracted to arts and crafts, but paper is by far my favourite medium. I am so excited and grateful to be a part of this new adventure, let's have fun ; )

Sketch Designer

I live in Arizona with my husband and adorable rescue dogs. Over the years, I have been blessed with many different types of design teams, publications and this amazing community of crafters. I just love sharing my love for all things paper, rubber and ink. I'm thrilled to be designing both sketches and cards for this amazing team. I hope both will spark some creativity in your craft room!

I have an amazing life, I live with my husband and two over indulged cats (one of them even has a nutritionalist). And other than work full time as an emergency nurse I also manage to find time to swim, go to zumba, walk on the beach, ride my scooter and somewhere in there I spend a whole of lot of time making cards and blogging. My 'go to' style is clean and simple so I was super excited that I could be a part of this CAS(E) Sketch team. I hope that you are inspired by this challenge and I would love you to join us, just remember it's all about having some fun!

Julie Day

Design Team Member

Hi, I'm Julie from Nova Scotia, Canada. I'm a wife, a mother to one terrific teenage girl and a full-time pharmacy technician by day. In the evenings I try to fit in as much craft time as I can whether it be making cards or making jewellery. I'm so excited to be a part of this new team and am looking forward to seeing all the great ideas from the sketches :)

Chrissy Larson

Design Team Member

I'm Chrissy and I'm a former officer in the U.S. Air Force. My husband was also in the Air Force and often teases that I'm CINC (Commander In Chief) of the household because I keep things running and everyone takes their orders from me. He has no idea how right he is! I have three boys who attend the new Iowa Virtual Academy which means they do public school at home. Needless to say, they keep me busy. My solace in the day is my craft space and card making is how I unwind. Little did I know when my mother introduced me to making cards in high school just how big a part of my life it would become. I remember teasing her about her obsession with stamps and paper and now I'm 100x worse than she ever was. I'm a tech geek so I often times find ways to use my computer in my crafting. I'm super excited to be a part of this team and since it's my first ever design team, I'm ready to learn a TON!  Can't wait to craft with you all.

Gayatri Murali

Design Team Member

Hi! I am Gayatri Murali. I live in Australia with my husband, soon to be teenage son and daughter and our adorable one year Cocker Spaniel dog called Charlie. I am a therapist by profession. I started out as a scrapbooker and soon became a cardmaker. I enjoy the process of designing cards. My style is clean, bold and graphic. I am very excited to be designing for CAS(E) This Sketch and working with an amazing team. Cannot wait to see all the gorgeous cards using the sketches :).

Kim Singdahlsen

Design Team Member

I live in Parker, Colorado with my husband, two teen boys, a dog and two cats. I am a former actuary (the mathematics of insurance) who has had the gift of being able to stay home and raise my boys for the last fourteen years. I am currently in school to add an accounting degree to my credentials so I can move back into an outside career.  Being surrounded by men at home and being surrounded by numbers at school and work, is it any wonder that I am passionately in love with creating cards - a rainbow of colors, glitter, ribbons and stamps, and a wonderful online community!? I am thrilled to be part of the first CAS(E) this sketch team and am honored to be surrounded by an amazing group of talented ladies.

Laurie Willison

Design Team Member

Hi! My name is Laurie Willison. I am a part time SAHM and part time RN. I have 2 kiddos at home and an amazing husband who puts up with my hobby! I started scrapbooking in 1997 and was taken over by card making in 2007! I absolutely love this hobby! It has given me such an amazing creative outlet and I have met so many wonderful friends because of it! You can find me over at my blog, Soapbox Creations! I currently design for Clear and Simple Stamps. I am also on the DT over at CAS-ual Fridays and Retro Sketches! I am thrilled to be designing along with these talented ladies. CAS is definitely my style and I am excited to get started on these adorable sketches! Thank you Jackie, for having me!

Please join us for our first challenge on Thursday, October 11 at 10 a.m. EDT! We can't wait to see your CAS(E) on our challenge sketches!!!
