Featured Artist/Designer: Tobi Crawford 08 06 2015

Welcome to another Featured Artist/Designer Spotlight. Today we’re thrilled to welcome Tobi Crawford. Before we show you Tobi’s project, let’s get to know her a little bit more…

TobiCrawfordProfilePic-250W-08062015Hi there! My name is Tobi Crawford and currently I am teaching Choir and Musical Theatre at a Canadian school in Shanghai, China! My degree is in Jazz and I double-majored on voice and piano and all day I am singing and playing with my kids! I needed something other than music to keep my mind occupied at night and on the weekend and that’s how I got started with paper crating. Card-making has been my passion for the past 9 years but lately mixed media is becoming a pretty huge part of my “artsy” life too.. I just love getting messy!! I don’t have one particular style of paper-crafting because I really like to try it all and just have fun.

Remember Journal Page

This is a quick and easy journal page that any stamper could easily do. I had this quote in mind when I started the page and that’s why I used the alphabet set, but this technique would work with any pattern, motif, or just repetitive stamping of an image or like-images.
