Julia Aston
I am a card artist and maker of crafts. I have loved making holiday decorations since I was a little girl when my mother would set my sister and I up on the dining room table with paper, crayons and scissors! I enjoy making personalized cards and photo albums for my relatives and friends for their birthdays and special events. I love working with Eileen’s Sizzix dies for my creations and I am honored and grateful to be working with such a talented group of artists on her Inspiration Team!

Mitsyana Wright
I am a self- proclaimed “CRAFTING NUT” and love many crafts including cardmaking, scrapbooking, mixed media, journal making and… pretty much any and all paper crafting!! I’ve been crafting professionally for the last 4 years and currently am on several design teams including, Eileen Hull Designs, Xyron, Clearsnap, and Diamond Press. I am married to my best friend for 13 years and we have 4 beautiful, energetic, crazy-smart, and highly imaginative kids (I think they get it from their mama). They are my crazy and chaotic world that I can’t get enough of and wouldn’t trade for them for anything! They are what push me and drive me but also keep me grounded. My family is my center and what inspires most of my work and without their love and support, I would not be able to do what I do. Follow Mitsyana on her blog Up On Tippy Toes, Facebook and Instagram
Maggi Harding
Hi, I’m Maggi Harding and I’m a southern gal, residing in Tennessee. These days I am a happily retired, stay at home, crazy, paper loving, scrap artist, living with my husband and two standard poodle girls. We love to travel and the girls always go on the road with us in the RV, otherwise known as the Rolling Doghouse. And yes, I have a “mobile” studio in the Doghouse. Making 3D objects from paper and flowers is my favorite thing to do! You can find Maggi on her blog, Scrap, Travel & Bark, Facebook and YouTube!

Elizabeth Robinson
I live at the seaside in beautiful North Wales, UK where my four beautiful rescue dogs keep me on my toes. We have beautiful beaches, woodland walks and the best ice cream on the planet, right here on our doorstep. I love all things mixed media, but you will also find me drawing and playing with watercolours. I love to upcycle items found in charity shops, and give them a new lease of life, there’s something very satisfying about it. I was so excited when Eileen invited me to be on her Inspiration Team at the start of last year, the dies are such clever designs and make amazing bases to add your own style on to, I am very proud to be part of this amazing team. My blog is The Crafty Robin and you can find me on Instagram here.
Anna-Karin Evaldsson
I am Anna-Karin Evaldsson and I started papercrafting in 2002. How lucky I am to have found the joy of making art from paper, dies, stamps, ink and paint. I enjoy switching between different types of projects: cards, mini-books, art journaling, layouts, canvases and 3-D/home décor. Many of my projects are mixed media and I love to try out techniques. Every project is a creative adventure and the possibilities are truly endless. You can find Anna-Karin on her blog, Layers of Ink, Instagram and YouTube.
Susie Bentz
I am a crafter at heart and have been creating all my life. I enjoy learning new techniques and playing with new products and then I love to share it all in the classes I teach locally and across the country. Over the years I have been privileged to work with a variety of manufacturers as a designer, educator and blogger. I have a very understanding husband and 3 adult children so I can almost always find time to play in my craft room every day. One of my favorite quotes is from Leo Buscaglia, “Your talent is God’s gift to you; what you do with it is your gift to God.” Follow Susie Bentz on her blog, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and Twitter.
Karen Bearse
My name is Karen Bearse and I am a lifelong crafter who currently likes getting as inky as possible! As a technique junkie there are few products I have not experimented with. My favorites are mix media, book making, art journal and throwing together the occasional mini-album. I am married with 3 kids and minion to a confident Siamese cat. Thrilled to be back with the gals on the Inspiration Team! You can find me on my blog, Instagram and Facebook.
Tonya Trantham
I’m married, a mom and “T-Mommy” (grandmother) living in southeast Tennessee. As long as I can remember I have always had that “need” to create whether crafting, altering, junk journaling or even remodeling. I just love being busy with my hands. I’m a member of AFCI and design for several different manufacturers and have been published in various craft magazines and e-books. If I am not crafting I love to read and spend time at the beach with my husband with our toes in the sand. Find Tonya Trantham on her blog, Creative Addiction to Paper, Facebook, Instagram and Pinterest.
