Please help me welcome our newest team member, Helen Berry.  





I'm Helen and I live in West Oxfordshire, near the Cotswolds in the UK.  I've been married to my husband Jon for 10 years and we have two gorgeous little boys aged 8 and 5.  My love of papercrafts started back in 2007 when I was unable to find a personalised, handmade Christening card for the daughter of a close friend of mine, so I ended up making my own!   I quickly became addicted to cardmaking, although I've been creative my whole life in one way or another.  My mum taught me to knit and sew, and was always teaching craft classes or preparing for craft fairs in my teenage years. Mum & Granny always had knitting, patchwork or crochet on the go!!
I love making cards, although I do scrap-booking and make mini albums - I love to make jewelry and dabble in home decor.  My latest craze is making my own unique soaps using my clear stamps.  I'm hooked!! I'm always experimenting with new techniques and digital stamps and papers and love anything vintage or shabby - I simply can't get enough of buttons, lace, ribbon, twine and pearls!! I grew up in rural Norfolk and am inspired by nature - I have a real fondness for the roses in my garden, I guess I'm a country girl at heart :)



This week our sponsor is MyGrafico.

We offer Commercial Use high quality Designer cliparts, digital stamps, Photoshop brushes, creative paper sets, scrapbook ing designs, SVG cutting templates, premade party printables and stationery templates.

This week our sponsor is Dearie Dolls.



"I have always been a crafter. I am married to my wonderful husband Kip who over the years has been a wood worksman extraordinaire. When our three kids were little I started crafting dolls to sell at shops and shows so I could be a stay at home mom.

The Dearie Dolls that I have been creating for over 25 years are the inspiration for this new line of digital stamps. We are grandparents now and have five grandkids, a fourteen year old Munchkin cat and a dog that looks like an Ewok if we wait too long to have him groomed. Inspiration all over the place!
 

I hope you can find designs at Dearie Dolls Digi Stamps that will add smiles to your handmade items." 

One lucky winner will receive 4 digi images!  


This week, our challenge is "use hearts."


Dearie Dolls has generously provided all digi stamps for the DT to use. Check out the DT's blog for more details.
