Design Team Coordinator

Tracy

aka inkyfingers and ribbon and I live with my very understanding husband who fully supports (and a lot of the time enables) this craft addiction I have. I have been crafting on and off for over 15 years. I love all things inky and I’m in my element colouring or playing with stamps and ink pads. My style is cas with lots of sequins! When I’m not crafting I am a huge film and book nerd. I have been a fan of Studio Katia for a while so I am super excited to be part of the design team and work with these amazing products.

Designers

Galina

In the past I was a mixed-media artist, but now I adore cardmaking and clean&simple style. My favorite mediums are Copic and Distress Markers. I love travelling, read fantasy books and collect stationery. I have a beautiful Scottish fold cat – Sir Oliver, who makes my crafting life more fun especially when he’s posing while take pictures of my cards.

Ilda

Hello I’m Ilda, the person behind I Love Doing All Things Crafty, which incorporates the letters of my name. Born in Portugal, raised in Canada. All my life I have loved to craft. In 2016, I was introduced to stamping and have been hooked ever since. I love CAS cards but somehow mine usually end up busy but beautiful I think 😉 I love anything paper-related. Prior to card making, my paper crafting was designing mostly 3D paper pieces using the Silhouette. Besides card making now, my interests include photography, painting, cake decorating, DIY crafts, and well anything crafty really. I also am a wife to a very patient and loving man, mother of two high schoolers, and a Maltipoo puppy. I have been an Oncology Nurse for over 24 years, love my job but it doesn’t satisfy my inner creativity. Hopefully, my work inspires you as many of YOU inspire me 🙂

My name is Monica Zerpa. I am so happy to be part of the Studio Katia family. I’m a wife and mother of two young girls. Originally from tropical Venezuela, I now live in frigid Canada with my family. I have been crafting since a young age, being introduced by my elementary school teachers where I started paper crafts with a focus on parchment work (pergamino) and a few forms of fiber art. I also tried clay work, stained glass and frosted glass among many others. As an adult, I started scrapbooking but quickly went back to my cardmaking roots and I haven’t stopped since. To me, crafting is my time to disconnect and relax and it has become a helpful tool to manage anxiety. Thanks in advance for checking out my projects and for your support.

Isha Gupta

I’m Isha Gupta. I live in Switzerland with my husband and two daughters. I’ve always been passionate towards art and craft. I don’t follow a particular style but I tend towards CAS cards which feature a technique or two. I absolutely adore coloring using various mediums, so my cards are often colorful and uplifting. I like to explore new techniques and also enjoy creating travel journals, paper projects, scrapbook pages, paintings and mixed media projects.

I’ve been lucky to have been published in various magazines in the US and UK and to have had the opportunity to work and guest-design with some awesome teams in the industry. I’m super excited to join Studio Katia!
If I am not stamping and creating, I love cooking, baking, gardening, reading or going for long walks as it’s so beautiful where I live.
