Kendra – Wisconsin (Lead Designer)
My name is, Kendra Sand, I live in Wisconsin with my high school sweetheart and our two fun energetic kids!!! I’m a SAHM in winter and work landscaping in summer! I have a passion for flowers!! As well as crafting! I started scrapping 20 years ago as both my husband and I raced at a local race track and I wanted to keep track of our wins and photos. From that it grew into a HUGE obsession! I started scrapping everything and then just over 13 years ago got into making all my own cards! My day is not complete, unless I am able to sit down in my craft area for a while to do something crafty! I love inspiring others. I have a wide range of styles depending on my mood and the products being used. Sometimes it can be clean and simple or cutesy or chic! I just love to create!

Melody – Ohio
Hi! I am Melody Blake, and I live in Pataskala, Ohio, with my craft-enabling husband of thirty-eight years. We have two grown sons and have enjoyed many adventures related to the amazingly diverse interests and careers of these two fabulous young men! I discovered the Dare 2B Artzy stamps at a local scrapbook store about a year ago, and it was love at first sight! Since I have recently retired after thirty-seven years as an educator (reading specialist, second grade teacher, and supervisor of talented and gifted programs), I have some time to play! The D2BA stamps and papers make creating so much fun, and I am elated to be joining the design team! Happy crafting!

Avra - Ohio
I am a stay at home mom, although my two kids are “grown and flown”; and I am enjoying the empty nest with my husband of almost 30 years. I have been a scrapbooker or cardmaker since my kids were very young. I spend most of my spare time stamping, coloring, learning new techniques, and making cards. I love socializing with some amazing crafters I have had the good fortune to meet – both online and in person. They truly are some of the best people! I am honored to be a part of the Dare 2B Artzy team of kind, creative women!

Tonya - Colorado
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 day1I1enjoy 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 2nd 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!!
