Welcome To The Hobby Art Design Team!

Jenny Mayes

I’ve been crafting for well over twenty years. I enjoyed stamping so much that it led me to start up in business as Hobby Art and I have been co-owner ever since.

My favourite part of the job is visiting and demonstrating at shops and major craft fairs for customers who stock our stamps. I also do workshops and sometimes demonstrate on Create and Craft.

Helen Meighan

My name is Helen Meighan. I started card making as a hobby about 16 years ago and now it has become a full time job, teaching and demonstrating. I have always had a passion for using peel offs in my work and have gained the title of “Peel off Queen”.
When I am not teaching or demonstrating I am constantly thinking of new designs.I recently thought it would be great to design my own peel-offs and write an accompanying booklet showing you how to use them to great effect.

Anna Flanders

My Crafting Fix is being able to make Greeting Cards. My main source of creativity is using rubber stamps.

I have worked with Hobby Art over the last few years and I have designed a small range of stamp sets. I love to see how other people are so creative with my stamps and it’s a case of

 ”Why didn’t I think of that!”

Alexandra Kamann

 I have a passion for crafts and everything fun and beautiful. I have been crafting forever or it feels like it… I started when I was still a child and I sold my first cards and other handmade things on christmas markets when I was about 8 or 9. At the moment I am addicted to rubber stamping and pretty papers and ribbons.

Kim Reygate

I am a self confessed ‘Stampaholic’ and craft in my spare time. I have written two books. The first on Teabag Folding and the second on Rubber Stamping, both for Search Press. I have written numerous articles for magazines and have had some cards published recently in Craft Stamper. I teach classes at various locations around the country and demonstrate at many of the major Stamp Shows.

Jo Rice

I have been crafting for many years with my main interest being card making and pyrography. I am a freelance crafter who at the moment runs regular workshops in Poynton, Cheshire and I love to share ideas with fellow crafters. My crafty companion is a 3 year old yellow labrador named Tess.

Lisa Baker

I have always made things from a very early age, using all forms of crafting but have been Paper Crafting for around 9 years and am a total addict. I love stamping and embossing, love techniques, love stroking papers and ohh the smell new stamps, I better stop there!!

I demonstrate at most of the major Craft Shows around the country and hold monthly workshops in Maidstone Kent. I also am a regular designer for Making Cards magazine.

 

 

 

 Franka Benjaminsen

I am Franka Benjaminsen and I live in the Southwest part of the Netherlands, near Belgium and the sea.

Six years ago I took my first steps in the world of scrapping and stamping, but after a while I’ve found out that stamping and cute cards are my thing.

Now I hope, while I’m a member of this design team, that I can give you some inspiration using these beautiful Hobby Art Stamps.

Becki Mayes

Hi I’m Becki I absolutely love crafting and making things.

I have been stamping for years now but only recently joined Hobby Art.

 One of my other weaknesses are pretty papers…although they end up being too pretty and I never want to use them!

I Love going to all the Craft Fairs and meeting all the bubbly stampers,

and seeing what’s new (although it ends up costing me)
