Carrie Rhoades

I started stamping over 20 years ago. I wanted to make Christmas cards. That’s when I was bit with the rubber stamping bug!  It was not long after that I turned my hobby into a part time job. I started teaching classes, making cards to sell, demonstrating at large events, teaching classes at expos, helping other turn their hobby into a part time job, I started a blog and then a YouTube channel.  I have also been hired to design and create ensembles  of projects for birthday parties and weddings. And now my part time job is full time, and I feel so blessed to do what I love everyday.  Creating with paper and stamps is my passion, my talent and my gift. I also have a heart for this community of paper crafters, how lucky we are to all be a part of something that brings us so much joy. And when ever I get the chance I love to show others that they too can express them selves artistically through paper crafting even if they don’t feel like they are an artist.  Beside creating with paper, I am also a wife and mother of two girls. I home school my kids, by choice, before it was required.  My husband is about to retire from the military after 30 years of service.  We currently enjoy playing with our new puppy, doing projects around the house, going camping in our RV,  and spending time with our parents who live nearby.

Jennifer Schoolcraft

Hi there! My name is Jennifer Schoolcraft, but most people call me Jen. In the world of cardmaking social media, I am my crafty alter ego, Jenlee. This name is actually a combination of my first and middle names, Jennifer Lee. I live in beautiful Gilbert, Arizona where the summers are HOT and the winters are a little less hot. I am married and have three sons ranging in age from 8 to 29. I have enjoyed some form of creativity all of my life but was introduced to cardmaking about 4 years ago and have been obsessed ever since! My favorite supply would be water (ha, ha) but really I love anything that reacts with water! I love to create in many different styles of cardmaking but would say that I’m a little bit of clean and a little bit of dirty (or busy). I am so excited to be a part of the Dare 2B Artzy team and can’t wait to inspire you as well as be inspired by YOU!

Teri Moriarty

Hello everyone, I’m Teri. I live in the warm, sunny and beautiful state of Arizona. I’m the wife of an amazing man for 27 years now, and the mother of a grown son, whom I will always consider to be my baby.

I have been in the creative industry for as long as I can remember. It’s all I know, and I’m not happy unless I’m creating. I’ve been retired from Art Directing for a few years now, but being crafty is something that I will never retire from! I have a passion for paper crafting and cardmaking. I specialize in three-dimensional cards and also pattern mixing. I love combining patterns that most wouldn’t combine, and making them look amazing!

We are excited to welcome Tonya back to our Artzy Design team!!

Tonya Meyer

Hi I’m Tonya Meyer. I live in Denver, Colorado. I’m married to my wonderful husband and we have two dogs and a cat. I work for a Spanish Language TV & Radio group as a Business Operations Manager. I’ve been with the company for 28 years. It basically pays for my crafting habit; fur-kids chew toys, catnip and hubby’s Star Wars collectables. When I met my husband, I was a casual crafter with a mild interest in stamping. Through a friend of my husband’s (who I may have stalked on Facebook until she became my friend), I discovered Copic markers and at that point I was hooked. I’ve had full-set syndrome ever since, LOL! My card style is on the bold and colorful side. Bright, pretty colors and shiny things make me happy what can I say. On any given day I enjoy escaping to my craft space to play with alcohol inks, markers, stamps, stencils, dies and watercolors. Sharing my love of paper crafting with others is such a great feeling and I believe that you’ll never find a better crafting community than Dare 2B Artzy! I am excited to be back and looking forward to sharing lots of Dare 2B Artzy goodness!
