I’m Heather and I’m so happy to be a part of the Art Journal Specials design team! I live in Barrie, Ontario Canada. I’m married and have 4 children and 3 grandchildren. Since graduating from Interior Design I jumped into the architecture/construction field where I worked for 20 years. I am typically a very linear crafter but I do love to play with mixed media and break free from my linear nature! I’ve been crafting since childhood but finally found my paper crafting passion in 2005. I retired from “work” in 2020 and now I have more time to take care of my family, volunteer, and CRAFT!

Hello!!  My name is Janet Schmitz. aka Mixed Media Momma.  I'm a retired therapist, farm wife, and self educated artist. My husband & I have been living for 30+ years on the farm he was born and raised on in the northeastern part of Nebraska but just recently moved closer to grandchildren. My inspiration comes from the farm, land & nature. Fortunately, I now have ample supply of such fuel for my creativity. The main lesson that I have learned over the years is to use what we have and make it better.  As a self taught artist I love incorporating 'junk' into my base and turning it into art.  I'm a bit obsessed with papers, textiles, color, texture and using all kinds of goops (mediums).  They are my 'Happy Place'.  I love to teach (and have taught at a local art store), create with others and learn as much as I can.

I am a mixed-media artist. I am captivated by all things vintage, antique, and rich in texture, they intrigue and capture the essence of my inner creativity. I love the textured detail in the craftsmanship, color, and design of an era gone by. From architecture to the simplest of folk craft, there is something enchanting about the rusty metal, peeled paint, worn edges, and torn pages that capture both beauty and imagination. In my art, I incorporate layers of inks, paints, mixed media, papers, etc. to try and capture texture and create interest and a little bit of the magic that inspires me.

I’m Martine, born in the Netherlands and living across the border in Germany. I’ve been crafting and drawing for as long as I can remember and got part of the Art Journal Specials design team. I’m captivated by the vintage style, nature, and people in general. These themes you see the most when you would describe my creations. I love to observe how people look, walk, and talk. I love the colors and differences in flowers and leaves and I love different structures in old, vintage materials. Torn edges, weathered look, rusty stains. I love to combine different structures in my art as well by using not only different structures of paper but metal or structure pastes, threads, or small pieces of fabric to finish it off. If you want to look me up on social media, I work under the name little.treasuresss, because that’s how my creations feel to me.

Hello, I'm Reanna, a mixed-media artist from the Netherlands. I love to incorporate all kinds of techniques in my journals, planners, on cards, and snail mail projects and have been doing this since 2018 after I found back my creativity and followed a mixed media course. I have been a proud member of the ECD team since 2020 and try to inspire creative people through giving lives, teaching workshops, posting (a lot of) pictures, writing blogs and I recently opened a YouTube channel where I post tutorials.

Hello all! My name is Rianne, 35 years old and I live with my wife and daughter Juul (2) near Arnhem, in the Netherlands. From an early age, I have been creative. From making cards, albums, and mixed media to art journaling. My style can be recognized by a vintage look and a stitch here and there. But I also really like a pop of color every now and then. I think it's fantastic to be able to work with all kinds of mediums and see what emerges. I am very happy to be part of the art journal specials team. I hope to inspire you!

Hello! My name is Valerie Rangel and I live in California. While I do live in a small town, I am just a couple of hours from the ocean, the mountains, the desert and Disneyland! I work full time, love to read, spend time with family and, of course, I love to craft!! My craft journey began when I was quite young and found a passion for needlework. Most recently I’ve been obsessed with paper crafts. I have focused this year on daily journaling and planning which has been a terrific growth experience. I love to make a variety of projects including layouts, mini albums, and cards. My love for Elizabeth Craft Designs began in 2020 and has been part of my creative journey ever since!
