Tiffany Richards Tiffany's Garden My Personal Blog Owner, Tiffany Doodles Digi Stamps Hi! I’m Tiffany Richards, owner of Tiffany Doodles. My background is in Web Design & Development as well as Photography. I have been self employed for eight years and have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of my work! You can view my professional web design, development, & photography website at www.TiffanyRichards.com. I also provide personal Blog Design services you can check out at www.TLillian.com. I was born & raised in Savannah, Ga, then spent most of my adult life in Fla (Ponte Vedra Beach & Jensen Beach). Now, I'm back in south Georgia with the love of my life, David. We have 2 dogs, Emma & Francie, 1 cat, Cornbread, and 3 chickens! Since childhood, I’ve always been creative and taken great pleasure in drawing and painting. About a year ago, I discovered the stamping and paper crafting world and just fell in love!! In a very short order, I began transforming some of my drawings and doodles into “digis”. It has truly been a joy to share them with folks. I get so thrilled every time I see something new that someone has created with one of my stamps!! Each design is like a child of mine and it’s really neat to see it all grown up and out in the world being all it can be…LOL! All of my digital stamps are originally created by me and of the multiple styles I offer, most are hand-drawn images. Some are brushed up in Photoshop using the pen tool to produce very clean lines and others are left with a sketchy, rustic, hand-drawn look. An additional digi-style is one that I’ve dubbed as PhotoSketches and these are images from my own photographs which I transformed into sketches with a little help from Photoshop. These beauties make splendid realistic images for stamping!

Anne Ray Star Groves I’m Anne Ray, I live in the village of Lambourn, in the UK, also known as the Valley of the Racehorse, population around 2,000 horses and 4,000 people! I’m married to the long-suffering Geoff, have two teenage sons, 2 horses, a rescue terrier and a rescue greyhound. My blog is called Stargroves, my user name from the first online forum I ever joined, which is for Rolling Stones fans (Stargroves is a house not far from where I live where some of their best albums were recorded in the early 70s). Yes, I am a bit of an anorak about all kinds of Stones triviaJ. I’ve dabbled in lots of crafts over the years, with my main interest, until recently, being quilting. Then I went to a craft show and, literally, took a wrong turn and ended up in the papercrafts hall not the sewing hall. I picked up some lovely silhouette rubber stamps, which fitted into a tiny bag and cost an awful lots more than I expected and that was it – I was hooked! I now feel I’ve regressed slightly to childhood, I’m enjoying building up my Copic collection and colouring in images! The rise of digi stamps is something I’m so pleased about, I love the chance to mirror image, to resize and combine, plus they free up storage space in the craft room! My favourite techniques are dry embossing and inking, colouring, stitching, the fun part is that there is always a new technique or card shape out there to try. I’m really looking forward to working with Tiffany’s images, I love her photo realistic work which is so much easier to colour than I ever imagined.

Cammy Wall Pink Room Therapy My name is Cammy Wall and I am so excited to join the Tiffany Doodles Design Team! I am a SAHM to a pair of wonderful children - 4 year old girl and a 2 year old boy - and wife to an extremely supportive guy. We live a stone's throw away from New York City in New Jersey. I was introduced to stamping about 5 years ago when a friend invited me to a Stampin' Up workshop. I have been stamping ever since and love it! I started out with SU's wood stamps, moved on to unmounted rubber and acrylic, and now really love playing with my digis. I've always loved to color, ever since I was a kid, and now I color with my Copics in my pink stamping room --it is my Pink Room Therapy!

Collette Landwer Heaven Sent For You My name is Collette and I've been stamping & scrapbooking for about 11 years. I'm currently a SAHM as well as a Nursing Student. I started my paper craft journey with Stampin' Up and Creative Memories and have branched out to include many other rubber stamp lines. I only recently discovered digital images this past spring at the same time I discovered Copic markers (my new obsession). Needless to say, I am now addicted to the immediate gratification of digital images. You buy, download, print, color all in a matter of a few minutes. I thoroughly enjoy coloring Tiffany Doodles images, especially Tiffany's photosketch images - you get such life-like results. A huge Thank You to Tiffany for allowing me to be a part of the Design Team at Tiffany Doodles. I'm looking forward to getting to know the rest of the Design Team and see what new goodies Tiffany comes up with.

Donna Mikasa 3 Umbrellas I was born and raised in Hawaii and graduated with a degree in Art (History). I’ve always loved paper crafting—folding origami, making little paper boxes. I started rubber stamping about 15 years ago, and now own several thousand stamps. I love digital images—being able to download them quickly and resizing them to whatever size you want is a big plus. My blog is www.3umbrellas.blogspot.com, and I have a Flickr photostream www.flickr.com/photos/3umbrellas/ And now I am happy to be a part of Tiffany Doodles!

Jodi Ann Lee Inked Inspirations Hi my name Jodi I live in beautiful Honolulu, Hawaii and work as a nurse during day and a crafter at night. I’ve been married to the best guy on the planet for a year and have one fur baby!! I’ve been a lover of crafts and crafting for as long as I can remember, my first craft memory was learning how to crochet in 5th grade from my grandma. I was first introduced to rubber stamps when I was in elementary school. My mom bought one for me and I still have it to this day! Being able to have a blog really gave me the drive to create and share what I love with everyone. I’ve met some amazingly talented people and have built wonderful friendships too!

Joy Taylor Less is More Hi! My name is Joy Taylor I live in a small town in Southern, New South Wales, Australia with my Partner Darryl and our furbaby Roly, I work part time which allows me to use the rest of my time for creating. I have been stamping and crafting on and off for the last 16-17 years and have found it to be a great source of relaxation and wonderful way to make new friends . Earlier this year I started my blog called Less is More and it has been the best thing I ever did, I have learned a lot about myself as well as this truly beautiful, warming and loving industry. I have meet and become friends with a lot of amazing, talented and gifted ladies through my crafting, the online world of crafting is such a heartwarming place to be. I am really looking forward to working at Tiffany Doodles and although I have not had much experience with Digital work, I feel that this will be a great experience and will enable me to learn more of the art of Digital, I am really looking forward to the venture ahead with Tiffany and the rest of the talented ladies. To view my blog at www.jtcardmaking.blogspot.com or you can also view my card gallery at http://www.flickr.com/photos/tulip1312/sets/ Thank you so much Tiffany for this wonderful opportunity.

Karen Baker The Bald Dragonfly I'm a graphic designer by trade, wife, and a mama to two energetic, young boys and always a crafter at heart. I like to expand my boundaries by experimenting and showcasing images in new ways. I'm passionate about composition and color and am an advocate of clean design in my creations. I usually have a memory or story to go along with my card so I like to include that in my posts.

Kim Schofield Paperie Petals My name is Kim Schofield and I am a SAHM living in New England with my husband of 11 years and our two little boys. I have always enjoyed crafting but it was about 10 years ago when I picked up my first rubber stamp and quickly fell in love with the art of stamping. I’m currently on the Sweet ‘n Sassy stamps (www.sweetnsassystamps.com) and SALT challenge blog (http://saltfaithchallenge.blogspot.com) design teams. I am also responsible for coordinating the design team’s activities for the Sweet ‘n Sassy team. Prior to joining Sweet ‘n Sassy, I was a design team member and manager for the Odd Bird Planet (www.oddbirdplanet.com) and a writer/designer for Scrapbook News & Review. I also teach monthly classes at my local scrapbooking store. In addition to my work being regularly published in Scrapbook News and Review, I have also had a number of projects published in CARDS magazine.

Pattie Goldman The Pampered Paper Patch Hi, my name is Pattie and I live in Hanover (South Central) PA with my wonderful husband of almost 20 years and two beautiful children - my son is 17 and my daughter is 13...and two furry kids too...a yellow lab named Dixie and a black and tan Pomeranian mix named Shadow! I have been a scrapbooker for many years, but stamping has taken over as my hobby! I enjoy shopping, cooking, baking, and stamping! I primarily use my Copics to bring images to life and hope to inspire people and make new friends along the way! In order to afford my love of stamping supplies, I work full-time as an office manager of a furniture store.

Shannon Neparko Desert Design Studios I'm Shannon (Desert Designs). I'm a native of the Southwest Desert, USA and Mommy to the most beautiful little girl in the world, an absolute doll; and wife to my high school sweetheart, the love of my life. I left the corporate world and my job as an engineer/analyst/scientist to stay home with my precious little one. Although the decision wasn’t an easy one, I don’t regret it for a second! I wouldn’t trade the time I have with her for anything…she is such a joy to have and I am truly blessed to have her and be able to share all of her accomplishments and development with her. In my "spare time" I am a paper-crafting junkie - I thoroughly enjoy creating "art"! I started rubber stamping in college; added digital scrapbooking and design when I was pregnant with my daughter; so digital-stamping and hybrid work are a natural progression! For my digital creations, I work primarily in Photoshop, though I have used PSP and GIMP as well - these tools are so powerful! I love the flexibility hybrid crafting offers - allowing us to take our art to all new levels. When not at the computer or I have been known to do some basic sewing, machine quilt, cross-stitch or bookworming (something other than House Mouse or Winnie-The-Pooh).

Simone Naoum Designs by Simone My name is Simone Naoum and I live in sunny Perth, Western Australia with my wonderful husband of almost 4 years and our precious little kitty cat. When I'm not working full-time as a legal secretary I LOVE to make cards in my spare time. I started crafting about 6 years ago with mosaics (mirrors, frames and flower pots etc) before trying paper crafting by designing and making my own birthday and engagement party invitations. It was through this that I discovered stamping and card making and I have been addicted ever since! I only started digi stamping recently and really enjoy it. I think my very first digi card was made using a Tiffany Doodles image! I really love Tiffany's fun and cute images and am really honored to be on the design team with some really talented ladies. Stamping is a great way to make life long friends from all over the world through our shared love of card making, and I look forward to making many more through the Tiffany Doodles blog.

Willemien Katerberg Styles in Paper Hi, I’m Willemien Katerberg and I’m thrilled to join the Tiffany Doodles Design Team. I reside in rural Ontario with my husband where we are self-employed in the poultry industry. Whenever possible I also enjoy volunteering in the community serving the financially and socially challenged. My spare time is spent creatively in paper, hybrid and digital crafts. I love the techniques both traditional and digital crafting allow me to do and for me it could never be one or the other. I love how easily digital stamps can be manipulated and adjusted to suit my desires. I enjoy colouring images and I mainly use artists’ pencils (with and without mineral spirits), but from time to time I also use watercolours, Twinkling H2O's and inks. It will be a wonderful privilege to work with all the wonderful Tiffany Doodles Digital Stamps.
