Meet our November guest, Ingrid Aries, who was selected and is introduced by our DT member Sphoorti!
I'm thrilled to introduce Ingrid Aries as our Guest Designer for this month! Her cards are not only beautifully crafted but also showcase an incredible range of styles—from elegant and intricate to fun and whimsical. I admire how she can work across so many techniques, making each card feel unique and special. But beyond her talent, what has touched me is her kindness. Last year, when I faced a difficult time after being laid off, Ingrid sent me a heartfelt card that lifted my spirits, even though we had never even spoken before. Her thoughtfulness and genuine warmth truly shine through, both in her creations and in her generous heart.

Blog: Spreading Joy One Card At A Time

Hello everyone! My name is Ingrid Aries. I live in the Pacific Northwest with my wonderful husband, 12-year-old daughter, and our sweet Havapoo. I taught elementary school for several years and am currently a substitute teacher. I have been crafting for as long as I can remember, creating my first handmade cards for Valentine’s Day in Second Grade. As a child, I wanted to be a Care Bear, not just dress up as one, but actually be one. I was always drawn to how they spread love, kindness, and joy. While my dreams have changed, one of the things that hasn’t is my deep desire to spread joy and love and to encourage others. I think that’s why I enjoy card making so much. It gives me the chance to create something that can brighten someone’s day. Besides making cards, I love organizing, doing puzzles, listening to podcasts, all things Disneyland, and spending time with family and friends.
Now it's your turn! Need a little more motivation? How about a prize? The winner (chosen at random) of this challenge will receive a $20 Gift Certificate to spend on their favorites from the store!
You have until 12 am US EST on November 28 to link up your design here! We'll start a new challenge and announce the winners on December 1!!
Thanks for joining us! We can't wait to see what you make!
