Leslie Turner

Leslie is married with two grown children and one granddaughter, and lives in Tallahassee, Florida.

Leslie has been scrapbooking for about 40 years, way back when scrapbooks were really bland and before all the fun papers and embellishments came about, but for the last 17 years her paper passion has been card-making.

In addition to card-making, Leslie enjoys making mini albums and gift bags, and she's been known to alter a few things! Despite her many years of card-making, Leslie is relatively new to stamping, and only started blogging and entering challenges in the past year.

In addition to being a Blockheads Paper Arts Design Team member, Leslie currently designs for 2 Sisters Challenge and Dutch Dare Card Challenge.

Barb Black

Barb lives in Snohomish WA and she must really love it because gypsy souls have a hard time settling down.

Barb has been a creative person all her life. She has dabbled in various of artistic endeavors over the years: floral design, music, sewing, quilting, writing, art.

The sign in her studio reads: Any Craft Will Do. But, ever since she fell head over heels into the world of rubber stamping she's kept busy making cards..
