LV Handcrafted
Hi! I’m Linh – or LV Handcrafted on social media. I live in Seattle, WA with my husband and our two dogs. I started crafting in high school as a scrapbooker but these days I make more cards and mini albums than scrapbook layouts. I’m excited to join such a talented team of crafters and support Kendra’s Card Challenge, which I absolutely love. It’s such an honor to join this team. There’s always so much to learn in papercrafting and I find these challenges are always an inspiration. I look forward to sharing and interacting with you on all the socials!

Sejr Andersen
Hello! My name is Sejr and I was born and raised in Canada, living with my partner and our 2 Frenchies. I feel like I have yet to explore all there is to offer in the card making world. There are so many products and techniques to try and so many people to meet and enjoy along the way! There is no one style I identify with yet, as I am having so much fun with stencils, coloring, die cutting, paper gluing, drawing, and the list goes! I do love to laugh and smile, and I always welcome everyone to join me. :-) Take care, and have a beautiful day!

Danni Bindel
Hello there crafty friends! My name is Danni Bindel and I am beyond excited to be joining the Kendra's Card Challenge Team! I have been doing paper crafts for over 25 years and cardmaking for close to 19 years. I love stamps and coloring the most but try to keep my passion alive by trying new things in the crafting world! I do love sketches too so Kendra's Card Challenge is right up my alley! On the rare occasion that I'm not in my craft room I enjoy spending time with my family, our pets- two cats, Alyssa who has chosen me as her human and Keke who has NOT chosen me as her human and my daughter's tortoise, Rocket. and I also enjoy reading, going to the zoo, going to the botanical gardens and I am just starting to enjoy starting some flower gardens for the bees, butterflies, etc. You can find me in the crafty world on all the social platforms under Danni's Dreams and they are listed here: https://bit.ly/3A5ZB4H
Angela Brennan
I am a Chartered Accountant by profession and a papercrafter by passion. I started crafting about 20 years ago but kids and career meant that hobbies had to be put on hold. While I still crafted over the years, I really got into it at the start of the pandemic in 2020. In 2021 (with a lot of help from my husband on the tech side) I started a blog (www.angelabrennancreations.co.uk) and YT channel (Angela Brennan Creations). Since then I have been on the Altenew Educator Certification Program, guest designed for Altenew and Waffle Flower and have carved some time for crafting on a daily basis. This is only possible since my two teenage sons are quite independent and I do not travel for work anymore as I work from home. I live in Scotland with my husband and two teenage sons. In my spare time, when not crafting (!), I try new spicy recipes, and go hill walking with my family. I also enjoy watching documentaries on true crime, and am usually crafting at the same time.

Rebecca Coombs
Hi! My name is Rebecca… aka: papergluefun on social media… and I live in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. I have many roles in my life (daughter, wife, mother, grandmother, friend, retired RN, volunteer, etc…) so I am always super busy… however, when I have “me” time I make a dash for my paper crafting studio! Although I enjoy other activities (diamond painting, a 1:12 dollhouse, counted cross-stitch and vegan gluten-free cooking) my greatest artistic passion is creating something meaningful with paper. Scrapbooking, card making, art journaling, and paper home-decor ideas are always swirling in my head! I love sharing ideas and interacting with other paper crafters because I believe that paper crafters are some of the kindest people I’ve ever met. I love this community built on shared knowledge and creative zeal and I look forward to getting to know you on social media, too!

Yvette Olea
My name is Yvette Olea. I have been a crafter for most of my adult life. I have dabbled in many different crafts, such as crochet, cross stitch, scrapbooking, card making and so much more. I was blessed to be raised by two loving parents and I credit them with making me the strong and loving woman that I am. I met the love of my life when I was still in high school and we have been married for 37 years. I am the mother of four, grandmother of nine biological grandkids and five bonus grandkids. I am fortunate to have a very supportive family and they continue to support me during this crafty endeavor. I worked for an elementary school district for over 25 years as an Administrative Assistant, Executive Assistant and Information Compliance Specialist. Since I am now retired, I am pouring myself into spending much of my time being creative in my wonderful craft room. I have always loved making/giving handmade items and have focused my new found energy on making cards and so much more. I have learned many new and fun techniques over the last two years by simply watching other creators on YouTube. I am forever grateful for the support and encouragement of this amazing creative community.

Dalis Acevedo - StamprGrl
Hola! I am Dalis, I started card making about 28 years ago, when my sister introduced me to stamping. After card making, I transitioned to scrapbooker when my second nephew was born. From paper crafting, I moved to digital scrapbooking and now back to basics with my card making and drawing. I love sketching, painting, creating anything creative is my jam. I have been in design teams for international and domestic companies. I am currently in a couple digital scrapbook teams and for one domestic stamp creator. I love playing and finding new ways to use products. Being messy is part of the fun, in my humble opinion. I am loud and opinionated and so is my art.
