Scrap Fever 5 – Meet Kelly Purkey

Kelly Purkey is a fantastic graphic designer and scrapbooker living in New York. Kelly has been an American Crafts product designer, a 2Peas in a Bucket Garden Girl, and a member of the American Crafts and Fiskars design teams, along with being on the Creating Keepsakes 2008-09 Dream Team and a CKConvention instructor. Kelly will be teaching some fantastic classes at our Scrap Fever weekend in April.

I remember the day I discovered my Grandmother’s scrapbooks and was so delighted to have this glimpse into her life. It all became clear exactly why I take so many photos, save each piece of paper, and try to record every aspect of my life as a young single girl. I am lucky to currently live in New York City, where there is inspiration around every corner. Besides scrapbooking I love traveling, curling up with a good book, laughing with friends, and cupcakes with lots of icing.

Here’s a sample of Kelly’s Work:

Dyan Reavely

Hi I’m Dyan,

I am the owner of Art from the Heart, a large teaching and design studio in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, where I can be found teaching a large variety of eclectic classes. I am the Senior Educator in Europe for Ranger Industries and I am well known for my innovative and down to earth style, and I am a regular contributor to the British crafting magazines. I have always been obsessed with paint and techniques and I am currently on a mission to get the world Art Journaling and strongly believe it should be available on the NHS..!! lol.

Along with my daughter Jay, we founded Blonde Moments, which is a British company with fabby hand painted papers large and small, funky rubber stamps, stunning pearl pigments and gorgeous ultra thick embossing powders.

I am also mum to four grown up kids, Ben, Tom, Jay and Emmi and proud grandma to the gorgeous Maisie Lilly. My favourite things of all time are: Toffees, Paint, Art journaling, Firemen, the colour Black and Northern Soul – Keep the Faith!
