Get to know Linda....

I'm a recently retired graphic designer. I've worked in the craft and hobby industry for my entire life, growing up in a family owned business.

Get to know Marion....

Hi, my name is Majo (a shortcut for Marion). Around the net I am known as 'Tante Kathe'. I am tickled to be guest designer for the third time at City Crafter Challenge Blog. Thank you Kirsty for having me! It is always a pleasure!

My husband and I live near Frankfurt, Germany with our two mischievous cats, pretty much known around the crop community, as "Emma" and "Cookie" are my favorite objects on my projects.

I started paper crafting three years ago. It is the perfect way to play with all the ideas that keep running through my mind. Last year I started blogging, I wanted to participate in challenges, and since then I have met a bunch of wonderful crafters, made many friends and have fun every single day. You are welcome to visit my blog: http://majos-art.blogspot.com
