Sketch Designer

Hello! I'm a retired Legal Assistant, married to Garry for the past 32 years, and mom to Amy and Ashley, who's married to Blake and the mother to my two grandsons, Brecken and Brenner. I love most paper crafts, but especially rubber stamping and card-making. Paper crafting is for me exactly what the title of my blog says - therapy, it's cheaper than the real thing. I also love to laugh, travel and play BINGO (don't judge! LOL)! Thanks for this amazing opportunity, Jackie!

Hi, my name is Christina and I come crafting to you from Des Moines, Iowa. I have been married to my wonderful husband, Doug, for 18 years and we have four children. I have been paper crafting for over 15 years. I love the clean and simple look and my projects tend to reflect that. When I'm not playing with paper I love to hang out with my family, garden, volunteer at my children's schools, and improve my photography skills. I am very excited to be a part of the CAS(E) this Sketch DT and work with such a talented group of women!

Jen Wills

Design Team Member

Hi! I'm Jen and I live in Bermuda with my hubby and our Ridgeback/Doberman mix Atticus. I work part time at a veterinary hospital and when I'm not there I'm usually in my Craft Cave. I started dabbling in cardmaking in 2007 but really got serious when I discovered the crafty blog community in late 2010. In the last two years I've learned and grown so much as a cardmaker and have made some amazing online friends. My style tends towards CAS and, although I've always professed to having an allergy to sketch challenges, I was thrilled to bits when Jackie asked me to join the CAS(E) team! Looking forward to diving in with this fabulous group of ladies!

Today's sketch is as simple as can be so that you can let your creativity run free! Remember, you can change the orientation and even make a shaped card to add your own twist to this very basic design. We can't wait to see what you'll come up with!

Now it's time to be inspired by the FANTASTIC cards from the Design Team!
