New Members of the Snowflakes Team

On Friday it's the turn of the Snowflakes Team to host the challenge - so before they do I'd like to introduce them to you.

Hi, my name is Pat K and I live with my wonderful husband in a small town on the shores of Lake Ontario in Canada.  My first venture into paper crafting was scrapbooking but I soon moved on to cardmaking .  My passion for paper has resulted in a very large collection and now it looks like dies are a close second!  I do love to colour with Copics and have recently tried polychromos which are work in progress.   Digital stamps are my favourite, mostly for their convenience.  My style is rather eclectic….one day I love CAS and the next I want to go all fussy and fancy…depending on the image or the recipient.   I’m thrilled to be on this wonderful DT. Thank you so much for having me. Hugs, Pat K.

 Hi I am Anet and have been making cards for just over 4 years now.  It started as a hobby and now I am hooked on cardmaking.  I love colouring digital images and stamps with my Copics.  I use Designer Paper and dies on my cards to compliment my images.  I am so proud and honoured to be part of the Winter Wonderland Design Team.

Colleen

Hello,  I am so honored to be on the Winter Wonderland design team! I am a retired ER/ICU/RN and for some reason I feel there are less hours in a day since retirement. I wake up, walk into craft room and boom the day is gone! 

I have been doing some sort of crafting since I was a little girl. I discovered paper crafting and started making cards in 2009. I have been on many adventures including design teams,  owning a crafting magazine and creator of The Outlawz Challenges. I love learning new techniques and looking at what everyone else has created. I can't wait to see what is all in store for us in 2016! 

I'm sorry I didn't introduce Moni last week as part of the Icicles Team - so here is her resume now.

Hey, I'm Moni, I'm 50 years old, married and have 3 sons. I live with my family on the beautiful Ostalb in Baden Württemberg Gemany.

I've always been creative, I knit, I crochet, I sew, and passionate!Being creative means to me to break my soul from everyday in my life and just be me!

To stamp I got about 10 years ago ... I am an absolute Cute stamper ..  I color with Polychromospencils and baby oil.

My cards and other works I make love with my Cameo. You are welcome to visit me on my blog.

I´m proud to be a member of the WWL Design Team and look forward to cooperating with all of you.

Changes at Winter Wonderland

Good afternoon everybody and a  Happy New Year to you all.

This is an extra post to bring you up to date with some changes at Winter Wonderland.

Firstly Eileen and I (Alison) are the new team coordinators.  Eileen is the coordinator for the Snowflakes Team and I am the coordinator for the Icicles.

A big thank you to Lynsey and Deborah – the previous coordinators – for the fantastic job they did in running the challenge blog.

We have some new Design Team members joining us in the next 2 weeks, and I would like to introduce you to the new members on the Icicles Team.

Hi everyone. My name is Iwona, I'm 33 and I live in Poland in a beautiful city Cracow with my hubby and our little baby girl. I was crafting since I can remember. Cross stitch, decoupage, sculpture, clay, jewelery making. Nowadays jewelery making is my job and papercrafting stole my crafter's heart :) The best thing in paper is that it's really a never ending story because there's always a new technique to try out.

Hugs,

Iwona

Hi I’m Emma & I live just outside Swindon in Wiltshire on a little farm estate with my Husband & our 2 fur babies, Zosia the year old Schoodle (mini poodle x mini schnauzer) & Anya our Tabby cat who’s 12yrs old.

I work in a Finance department of an Education Company & have been there for 12 years, I do moan about the place but it can’t be that bad as I’m still there.

I’ve always liked crafting & could be found with some paper & glue making a mess as a kid. A few years ago I thought ‘right I’m going to make my Christmas cards this year as it can’t be that hard’ oh how wrong I was. The 1 little box of bits that I started with has now grown into my Husband building me a craft room in the garden as he apparently wanted his living room back lol.

I am now on a few DT’s & love being part of a team & have made so many new crafty friends, it’s so nice to meet so many like minded people who get excited about pretty paper, flowers & glitter as much as me.

Okay....here we go....I am Plony, married for 38 years to my lovely husband Arie and we have 2 sons and a daughter, and 3 little grandsons....granny's proud...I love to craft...making cards, pimp things, I love vintage and I love to color stamps and digi's....and I love to learn things from other crafters. I have a lot of time to craft because I don't have a job...beside taking care of my husband...lol...We are enjoying our live very much and we are very thankfull to be able to live this good life . 

I am looking forward to a nice time with my teamies here at WWL.

From Marlene -

I am a Sixty something married to David who actually retires at the end of 2015. I have 3 Grandsons 2 in Glasgow and 1 in Nairn which is a small town 14 miles away, which isn't to far their ages are 18, 11, and 14, we love them dearly. We live in a beautiful part of Scotland in Inverness in it is a lovely part of the country to live in, in the Highlands, we are both originally from Newcastle where all are family are, so we go to see them when we can.

I have been crafting for a long time, from crochet, knitting I used to design my own Knitwear, which found it quite hard, Embroidery. This is one of the reasons why I started  making cards in 2011, I find it relaxing, especially when I am stressed.

Please come back on Friday to see if you are a winner or a Top 3 in our Christmas Bingo Challenge.

We will also announce the new challenge at that time.
