Design Team

Hi. I’m Fleur Smith. I live in beautiful British Columbia, Canada and have been married to a wonderful man, Michael, for over twenty one years. We have two amazing sons that keep me very busy and one crazy cat that makes us laugh every day.

I started Scrapbooking with the birth of my first son, over 13 years ago, and have been busy creating ever since. I also love taking photographs, traveling, reading and music. I do all of the above (especially Scrapbooking) whenever I can and you will usually find me at my designated scrap zone well past midnight. I have been published in several magazines including Paper Crafts Magazine, Create Magazine, Cards Magazine and Canadian Scrapbooker magazine. I am so excited to be a part of the Epiphany Crafts design team.

Hello,  My name is Malika Kelly.  I am a mother to three beautiful kids, Noah 9, Ashton 7, and Piper 3 and wife to a hard working husband, Andy.  Before having kids, I was teaching elementary school, but have since decided to stay home for my family.  I have always been the crafty type, even as a young child.  I started scrapbooking about 13 years ago, just after we got married.  I love documenting my children’s lives and am a big fan of Project LIfe.  I love to layer patterned papers and I almost always stitch (machine or by hand) on my layouts.  You will also find lots of clustered embellishments.  I am so excited to be joining the Epiphany Crafts Design Team!

Hello My name is Nattarida Smith.I go by ” Natt ” .I’m originally from Bangkok Thailand.
After living in 4 different continents in 3 years I’ve permanently moved to the US when I married to my darling husband and we are now living in Denver,Colorado.

I always have a big place in my heart for all kind of crafts, hiking, mountain biking. Ice-cream, pink, Juicy couture and country music.

I started scrapbooking in May 2011 and it becomes a big part of my life.My scrapbooking style is simple, feminine, and of course sparkle. ( I always sneak a little bit of bling on to all of my projects lol )

My name is Jennifer Chapin. I live in Eastern Iowa with my husband Adam, daughter Keira (4), son Connor (8 mos) and a beagle named Hunter. I work full time as a registered nurse, but in my spare time (mainly after my kids are in bed!) I love to scrapbook. I have been scrapbooking and making cards since 2006. I also enjoy reading, collecting cookbooks and trying new recipes. I am excited and honored to be a part of the Epiphany team!

I am a happy mother to three rambunctious boys and wife to a fantastic, supportive husband. We live in Northern California where we are within minutes of most of our family. When I am not making things for my Etsy shop, Precocious Paper, I am scrapbooking, blogging, or teaching as a professional dance instructor and choreographer. My favorite color is blue, but I have a serious crush on yellow. I love to make layouts, mini albums and cards, as well as accessories and home decor pieces. My work has been featured in Green Craft, Paper Crafts, and several Create: Idea Books and Scrap365. I am excited and grateful to be a part of the Epiphany Crafts team!

Hi!! My name is Jennie Garcia and I was born and raised in Puerto Rico. I moved to the US with my husband and daughter in 2011. I’m and ARMY Wife and mom to a 4 year old and another miracle about to be born. I started scrapbooking almost 4 years ago when my daughter, Ithamar was born. If you have seen any of my work you have probably seen her since she is in 95% of my layouts. I’ve always been a crafty girl and I jumped from hobby to hobby until I landed in Paper Crafting which is my favorite yet. I love the cutesy and artsy styles but I have crafty ADD so I like to try everything. I am a tool girl, I have more tools than my husband and he is a mechanic!! I love trying new techniques, products and styles. My favorite thing to do are scrapbook layouts but I also love making mini albums, home decor, cards and I love to use recycled and unusual materials in my projects.

My name is Angi Barrs and I am thrilled to be a designer here at Epiphany Crafts.  I live in “Terrific Texas” with my teenage daughter. I’m frequently in San Diego as well visiting my college girl too. I’m a full-time junior high school English teacher and my background includes journalism, photography, and I have proudly served my country in the U.S. Marine Corps.

I’m craft obsessed! Not only do I make cards, but I frequently make altered projects , home décor, and party favors as well. I’ve gotten to design for some fabulous manufacturers, and have had my work published in several crafty magazines.  You can find my designs at the Cokie Pop Paper Boutique.

I am so looking forward to working with this fabulous and inspiring team!

Hi, my name is Christina and I come crafting to you from Des Moines, Iowa. I have been married to my wonderful husband, Doug, for 18 years and we have four children. I have been paper crafting for over 15 years. I love creating layouts, cards, mini albums, and 3D projects. When I’m not playing with paper I love to hang out with my family, garden, volunteer at my children’s schools, and improve my photography skills. I am very excited to be a part of the Epiphany Crafts Design Team and work with such a talented group of women!

Hi, I’m Kate Vickers and I am a wife and mother of 3 small children, ages 8, 5 and 3. I live in Burlington, Ontario, Canada. I have scrapbooked seriously for about 7 years now, but I have been interested in arts and crafts since I was old enough to hold a crayon.

I have been very fortunate to be published in major scrapbooking magazines, including CARDS, Scrapbook Trends and Canadian Scrapbooker. As well as Epiphany Crafts, I currently design for Elle’s Studio, Pink Paislee, Pretty Little Studio and Paper Issues. I’m a very “serious” Epiphany Crafts fan! I tried out for the Design Team three times and was a Guest Designer before being asked to join the team as a full time designer. By that time, I already owned a drawer full of Epiphany Crafts Tools!

My other passion is horseback riding. I have been riding for over 25 years and owned two of my own horses. I have competed at the National level in Hunter/Jumper, Eventing and Dressage.

My real job is part-time freelance Web Project Manager, Designer and Developer. I have been lucky to be able to do freelance work for some major Canadian marketing firms. My specialty is open source content management systems like Joomla and WordPress.
