Patty's Tutorials
Patty Del Bello here! I am 60 years old, love crafting and learning new techniques from my fellow crafters. Our crafting community offers so much inspiration, fresh ideas, and new techniques. After several years of crafting, I decided to take it to another level by offering specialty craft supplies to those who enjoy the same hobby. I import several product lines from the United Kingdom that are not readily available in the US. It brings me much joy to serve my fellow crafters. I don't have much time these days to participate in creating tutorials, but I'm currently working on that by bringing my daughter on board to help with this business. Exciting!

Kathy's Tutorials
Hi everyone. I'm Kathy Lake and I live in Letchworth Garden City in Hertfordshire UK. I'm 60 in January and I'm always learning new things. You're never too old to learn something new. I went to a university at 42 to get a degree (at the same time as my daughter which was quite an experience 😉). I've been a crafter for over 30 years. The last 15 years have been jewelry designing and in 2017, I discovered Lavinia Stamps and fell in love! I now love stamping. I'm semi-retired from my childcare business and I recently converted my garage at the bottom of my garden to my craft space where I can craft in peace and ignore the housework! I live with my hubby and my elderly cat and dog. We have 3 grown children and are blessed with 4 small grandchildren. We spend most weekends on the beautiful Norfolk coast where we have a holiday home with craft supplies! I'm so excited to be joining this talented team.

Cheryl's Tutorials
My name is Cheryl McQueen and I live in Texas. I retired from the University of North Texas at the end of the summer and am enjoying my "free" time (although I think I am busier now than ever). I have the BEST daughter and a wonderful son-in-law. We are expecting my first grandchild (a girl) at the end of December 2021! I have been crafting since I was old enough to hold a crayon and love every form of crafting. My passions include fusing glass, sewing, playing with my Silhouette cutting machine, and, OF COURSE, stamping! My recent addiction is all the wonderful stamps and supplies I get from Del Bello's Designs. I love sharing my crafts and have held many workshops on making different kinds of crafts. I am tickled to be able to share some of my creations with you! I have two cats who hopefully won't show up in any videos, but you just never know--they love to see what I am doing when I am deep in my crafting world. I look forward to interacting with everyone and seeing the beautiful creations you make!

Katherine's Tutorials
Hi Crafty Stampers! My name is Katherine Rock and I am thrilled to be a member of the Del Bello's Designs Team. I have been an avid stamper since 1993. I love experimenting with new paper crafting elements and finding new ways to use the 'old'. I have had some past experience working with design teams, as well as running monthly stamp clubs and teaching rubber stamp classes off and on since 2009. I think it's safe to say that stamping is one of my life passions.
In my daily life, I am a mother of three and a Mimi to four granddaughters who enjoy stamping and cooking with me whenever we are able to get together. In addition to our human family, we also have two fur babies - a Cocker Spaniel and an Australian Shepard. It's safe to say that life around here is not boring and mostly quite fun!
I am excited to be a member of this incredible team of designers and hope to inspire you to create beautiful things.

Elisabeth's Tutorials
Hi there, I'm Elisabeth Schwabe from Norway, and I'm so excited to be a member of Patty's Design Team! June 2023 will be a memorable month for me! I turned 60 in September 2022, and can't really wrap my brain around that number. But, of course, my oldest son is 35, my daughter is 33 and the youngest son is soon to be 20, so it does make sense. My hubby, youngest son, and I live on the outskirts of Oslo with a lot of wildlife, woodland, mountains, and a lake surrounding us. This gives me a lot of inspiration for my artwork, mainly watercolour paintings. I've done arts and crafts almost my whole life using all sorts of media, but for the last few years, mostly painting. In April 2021, I discovered Lavinia Stamps and have never looked back since! I love fusing stamps with my watercolour and making small scenes. I do dabble a bit in mixed media as well, and make artsy fartsy pieces. I hope I will inspire you, and maybe you'll even learn a trick or two by watching my tutorials. I can't wait to start this new adventure! See you around! With love, Elisabeth.
