Kelly Nagy

Hey there! I'm Kelly, a passionate crafter who believes that every card tells a story. My crafting journey began when I was invited to a Creative Memories party when my son was just a baby, he's now 27. The hostess had us heat emboss our own name tags! It was magical and I've been hooked ever since! I love experimenting with colors, textures, and innovative techniques to create unique, heartfelt pieces. From card making to scrapbooking, I pour my soul into every project because I know the joy a handmade creation can bring. When I'm not crafting, you'll find me working at our local hospital as a Coding Manager, or spending quality time with my husband of 35 years. I can't wait to share my passion and inspire you on your own crafting adventure!

 

 
Angie Bode
While I was born in Germany, I lived in the mid-west during my early years. I have lived in the South my entire adult life. Currently, I live in Georgia with my husband and two rescued felines. I am a mom to two grown children, a son-in-law and a daughter-in-law. Making things has always been a passion of mine. I fell in love with the art of card-making many years ago. Making a mini-work of art and giving it away brings me joy! I find pleasure in exploring different artistic mediums and styles. Watercolor is another art medium I'm passionate about.

Michelle lives in Northern Virginia with her husband, daughter, and rescue pup Benny. Michelle loves card-making, Dr. Pepper, sarcasm, and puns. She says crafting has become therapeutic and how she unwinds from a stressful workday.  While clean and modern is her favorite style she admits she’s a sucker for a pretty floral. She loves experimenting with new styles and finding creative storage solutions to TRY to keep her craft room organized. She hopes her cards and crafts bring others even a portion of the joy that she feels creating them.

Angy Hughes
Hi, I am Angy Hughes. I have been married to my Beloved husband for 34 years. We have 2 grown children and recently moved to Colorado from Texas. (LOVE this change in weather ) We have 2 Australian Labradoodles – Winston (4) and Sophie (3). Yes, as empty nesters, during Covid, we got dogs.  I am a LONG time paper crafter and have been stamping and making cards since 1998 or so. I love making cards because I know it brings a smile to the recipient.  AND it’s usually a project that brings immediate gratification unlike quilting or cross stitch which I have dabbled in as well.  I am really excited to join this team and continue growing my skills and sharing my creations in this craft I love.
