Hi I am Zowie, crafting is my passion. I live in the UK with my wonderful children. I started crafting over eight years ago; I have a love for anything vintage and shabby chic, which you'll see a lot of in my artwork.
I also like working with mixed media and paper collage. Art to me, is a way of expressing yourself and having fun.

Henriette
Hi my name is Henriette, I'm married and have four great kids. I live in Haugesund Norway. I started scrapping in 2003, but I have always liked to use paper, have made cards, embellished albums, drawn and painted. I like Vintage and Shabby chic style with vintage pictures, lace, flowers, beads, charms and beautiful paper. I also like to try out new folding techniques.
This hobby gives me much pleasure.
I am looking forward to being a part of the Design Team.

MC Crafts
I have always had a passion for making things, from being a small girl I would watch my Mother knit and sew and as soon as I was old enough she taught be how to knit. I would ask for drawing books for birthdays and Christmas just so I could doodle and draw. I started making cards at school and made more when I got home. Once my children were old enough they helped me to knit and sew and make things. I am enjoying recycling, up-cycling and generally making old, unloved things new and loved again. I always have something to do with crafting and I enjoy whatever I am making, be it a scarf, a card or up-cycling something.

Creative Motifs
Helen Keller said, "The best and most beautiful things in life cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart." To me, that is Art!
A graduate in Chemistry, a passionate Bharathanatyam dancer, allured toward the alchemy of art for the past 15 years.
Dance has taught me that any sense of direction to my future should come out of my own hands. This reflection contributed to engaging my wishes in sketching. I wanted my strokes to speak in this pursuit with a firm belief that Art breathes life into space. The blending of colours in creating works of art has always fascinated me. This curiosity and fascination led me to learn the art of painting. My exposure and training in the field of art and painting has instilled confidence in me to try out many things in life. I believe that Life isn't about finding yourself; Life is about creating yourself.
