Introducing Our 2024 Fall/Winter Design Team!

             Welcome Back to The Card Concept!  

  We hope all of you had a wonderful summer holiday and we are back with our monthly inspiration challenges starting tomorrow, Wednesday, September 11th at 8 am EST.

In the meantime, please help us say goodbye to one of our beloved teammates and a warm welcome to our returning Design Team members!

We are sad to announce that Mackie Robertson will be stepping down from our Design Team to spend with family and pursue other artistic endeavors.  We fully understand!  

Being part of a Design Team can be rewarding but it does take time - Mackie has been on the team for almost ten years!  So many gorgeous creations, she has been a true inspiration to many!  We wish her all the best and will miss her! Hugs and love, Mackie! 

Now, please welcome our Fall/Winter 2024 Design Team 



Hello, my name is Esther, and I live in the beautiful state of Virginia with my husband and daughter. My mom encouraged me to take up cardmaking in 2005, and I've been hooked ever since. I’ve made some wonderful friends through this hobby, and love that I can use my creations to brighten someone’s day with a bit of handmade kindness in their mailbox! It's a pleasure to be a part of The Card Concept team. 


Hi Everyone!  My name is Julie and I live in Maryland.   As a fairly new widow, I am fully relying on the Lord to give me strength to take of all of the chores that my beloved hubby used to do for me.  I am also, slowly, continuing to remodel my home and create cards in my spare time, lol!  I have been artistic all of my life, and in addition to creating cards, I enjoying quilting, drawing/painting, and vintage junk journaling!  Since I enjoy experimenting with different styles and mediums, my overall style tends to be a bit eclectic. Hopefully I will inspire you to create a card and join us!


Hi! My name is Michele. My husband and I, along with our feline fur babies live here in tropical Florida where we love the beautiful beaches and the year-round golf! When I'm not crafting, I work as an Employment Consultant for people with intellectual disabilities. I love working with layers of paper and color and am thrilled to be a part of The Card Concept!

Hello stampers!  My name is Karen Ksenzakovic and I am so excited to be a part of this creative team.  I live in central New Jersey with my husband of 36 years.  I have 2 adult children a 2-year-old puppy and 7-month-old puppy.  My son is a soccer coach, and my daughter just graduated with a degree in Forensic Chemistry.  I've worked in accounting for over 40 years and also work for a Dog Bakery Boutique for the past 7 years.  I love to cook & bake, garden and I've always done some kind of crafting. I've sewed, crocheted, knitted, cross stitched and have been doing paper crafting for over 16yrs when I was introduced to Stampin' Up!  I decided to become a Stampin' Up! demonstrator 6 years ago and love it.  I love designing all styles of cards from clean and simple to collage and I've also done some scrap booking.  I love layering and especially love water coloring and coloring with alcohol markers.


Hey there, crafty friends!  I'm Karen Letchworth of My Cup Runneth Over.  First and foremost, I love the Lord Jesus Christ; and I live for Him.  I've been crafting most of my life...cross stitch, scrapbooking, card-making and now even doing fun arts & crafts projects with my (6) beautiful grandbabies.  I'm a retired, married (39yrs), wife and mother (3 grown kids) who spends the vast majority of my free time either in my craft room or in front of the tv watching my favorite shows.  I'm excited to be part of The Card Concept Design Team, and I hope that some of my cards/designs will inspire you.



Hi there! My name is Jenny and I’m from Melbourne Australia. I began sporadically card-making 25 years ago, but many years later, when I discovered the wonderful online community and challenges, I became hooked!  Do I have have a style? I think it changes constantly. I guess you would call it ‘Clean and Layered’ these days. However, as a Designer for The Card Concept, I look forward challenging myself to try new styles.

Hi, I'm Kerry from Melbourne, Australia. I have two gorgeous adult daughters and a very new and adorable grandson. My crafting journey began when my girls were young and I discovered scrapbooking, then from there progressed to card making. My style has evolved over the years from primarily clean and layered to experimenting with shabby chic, clean and simple, and dabbling more and more into mixed media. I currently work from home, so have plenty of opportunities to slip into my craft room and lose myself in creating. It's a pleasure to be part of The Card Concept design team for another year. 




We are looking forward to inspiring you to join us for our new monthly 2024
Fall/Winter Challenges! 

Our September Challenge starts tomorrow, Wednesday September 11th at 8 am EDT.
