Kim L.

Hello everyone! I'm thrilled to be joining the fabulously talented Kraftin Kimmie Design Team as Guest for the month of September. It is my pleasure to be asked and I am having a ball creating with Kraftin Kimmie's wonderful stamps!

I have been married for 31 years to my wonderful hubby and love being a Mom to my beautiful Daughters, Jessica and Cara.

When not crafting I can be found boating in the summers on the Long Island Sound from our home port of Groton, Connecticut, about an hour from our land home in CT. Our boat is our "floating cottage" on the weekends where we enjoy the beach, trips to New England ports of call and soaking up the sunshine. In the winters, I enjoy movies, plays, dining out and sending time with family. I look forward to this month of sharing my Kraftin Kimmie card creations with you all.

Lori

Hi, everyone! I'm Lori Tecler. By day, I work in the education field in a large school system in the Washington, DC suburbs. I used to be a kindergarten teacher, but now that I work in an office all day, I need a way to get my creative fix and I've found that stamping fills that need. I'm "mom" to a super cute--and super energetic--goldendoodle puppy who keeps me on my toes pretty much full time. She'll steal pretty much anything that's not nailed down and unfortunately, she thinks my stamping supplies are fair game! I've been a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps fan for a while now and I was thrilled to be chosen as one of this month's guests. I'm looking forward to working with the amazing Krafty Girls and the other guests.

Nadia

Hi, my name is Nadia Bayazitov, and I am SO EXCITED to be here!! When I sent an email with my work to Kimmie and asked if she has a customer submission gallery, I never IMAGINED Kimmie asking me to be guest designer for September of 2012 !!!

It has been a dream of mine to be on the Kraftin' Kimmie ever since I laid my eyes on the first stamp (Cinderella) by Kimmie in a magazine, and now my time has finally come! I have been stamping since 2006, and have been very active in the stamping community serving on several design teams, working for several challenge blogs and for VERY FIRST one russian speaking scrapbooking magazine! I feel truly blessed that my family-most important my husband supports me in my hobby! I live in Washington state, Hood River area with my husband of 17 years and my 2 kids: son Alex 6 year old. and daughter Victoria 4 year old. I am stay at home mom since my children were born. Stamping and scrapbooking is my passion, so I keep pretty busy with it! I look forward to get inspired and to be an inspiration, and getting to meet all of the Kraftin' Kimmie fans!!

Now go ahead, take a few minutes and check out the incredible creations from our Krafty Girls and Krafty Guests!! And then play along with us!!!! We can't wait to see what you make....and you could even win the Fortune Teller stamp featured on Amanda's fantastic creation!!!!

Happy kraftin'!
