Do you love learning more about the designers?  Stay tuned to this blog for complete spotlights on the 2008-2009 Design Team, coming in February and March.  Our talented designers have a lot more to share with us, and I love learning more about them and their creative processes.

Today’s hostess and designer is Holly Craft, and yes, her real last name is Craft!  Holly was on the original design team in 2005 and has joined us again for 2008-2009.  Holly is a wife, and mother in her real life, and enjoys papercrafting, scrapbooking, photography, travel and sewing. Her latest hobby is knitting.  Holly has always enjoyed coloring and working with paper and was always drawing and making cards as a child. She majored in art in college and enjoyed doing watercolor and all types of crafting.

She began scrapbooking in the early nineties, before it was “cool” and then discovered rubber stamping in ‘99. “Life has not been the same since for her…or her husband, or her house,” she says! Within 6 months of her discovering stamping, she was published in Rubber Stamper. Since then, she has been published in Legacy, Memory Makers Magazine and others. Holly’s work has been on the websites of many companies, including Inkadinkadoo, Serendipity Stamps, Scor-it, Websters Pages and Craf-T.

In addition to crafting, Holly enjoys photography and travel and now has time for that since her two children are married and away from home. She enjoys teaching classes and has represented several companies at conventions.

Here is one example of Holly’s creative mind.  Thank you so much Holly!
