Agnieszka Malyszek (Joined March 2015)
I am thrilled and honored that I can be a part of the amazing and talented Altenew Design Team. I still remember my excitement when I received my very first Altenew stamp set and I can’t imagine my crafting life without Altenew products anymore. I'm especially a fan of all the timeless floral designs. I love the feeling when I’m itching to get my hands on the new products and start creating my cards.
Jaycee Gaspar (Joined October 2019)
What I love about being a part of Altenew's crafting family is the chance to fuel my expression. Altenew's wide range of high-quality floral stamps are truly unparalleled in the industry. The joy of sharing my passion with the Altenew community is indescribable. I am grateful to be a part of this diverse team, and I am excited to see how Altenew will continue to revolutionize the crafting world.
Therese Calvird (Joined October 2015)
There is always something new and exciting on the horizon at Altenew and I love it! It challenges me to create using new techniques and ideas, things I would probably have never even thought to try. The products are on trend and high quality, so I know my crafty investments will last me a long time! Thank you Altenew, for the thoughtful way you collate and create your products; keep them coming!
Erum Tasneem (Joined January 2017)
Being part of Altenew is like having a VIP pass to a perpetual crafty celebration. For me, it's not just a creative platform; it's my artistic sanctuary. Altenew products possess a unique alchemy that transforms the mundane into the extraordinary. And you can see that magical transformation happen right before your eyes! I feel content and liberated when using Altenew products, as if someone as ordinary as I am has created art. This makes me feel like Altenew and I are a match made in heaven.
Svitlana Shayevich (Joined in October 2015)
Throughout the years, being a member of the Altenew Design Team has become an essential part of my crafting journey. I continually find joy in playing with new designs, testing out new products, and savoring the timeless appeal of products released years ago. I feel privileged to belong to an exceptional team of incredibly skilled designers who motivate me to explore new creative boundaries.
Tenia Nelson (Joined January 2021)
So many things that are wonderful about Altenew…this AMAZING company! First, the amazing people that work for this company. They are simply top-notch and are the very best! Second, the design team…they are AMAZING! Lastly, the PRODUCTS! All of the products from the stamps to the washi tapes (did I mention that I LOVE WASHI TAPES?) are just amazing and fun! Thanks to everyone at Altenew for giving me this super RAD opportunity. Wow… I cannot believe it's been 3 years! Time flies when you're having FUN!
Emily Midgett (Joined January 2021)
Joining the Altenew Design Team was quite literally a dream come true. Their floral stamps have made my heart sing for years, and the gorgeous floral designs are a match made in heaven when combined with their amazing coloring mediums and tools! It's an honor and a privilege to represent Altenew as a Design Team member.
Nathalie DeSousa (Joined September 2019)
It is an honor to be part of the Altenew family. The creative adventure and possibilities that Altenew creates with each of their products is probably what keeps us so excited to create and express our emotions and, in my case, document my every day. I count myself blessed to use their beautiful products, but it is the people behind the products that make this creative adventure truly exceptional.
Michelle Short (Joined September 2021)
I have followed Altenew since the beginning. I fell in love with the floral stamps but have since fallen in love with the dies, embellishments, paper, coloring mediums, and tools! Altenew is such a caring, supportive, and innovative company. Working with the team at Altenew continues to be an honor and a pleasure!
Lydia Evans (Joined in November 2015)
We are so excited that Altenew is turning 10! It seems like Altenew has been around forever but also in many ways the years have flew by! It has changed my life completely! I'm able to share my creativity and the team is like a second family. First time went on live tv showing Altenew products – I remember watching Create and Craft for years and it was so surreal that I was actually on it! I think the 10 year mark is one of our most notable achievements.
Reiko Tsuchida (Joined October 2017)
I'm so honored and happy to be a part of the Altenew Design Team with a group of extremely talented, nice, and amazing ladies who constantly amaze me with their creativity and sense of style. Also, I’m so grateful for Altenew because they’ve given me the opportunity to extend my creativity with such amazing and unique products! Everyone knows that Altenew stamps and dies are absolutely fabulous, and the products inspire me every day.
And we can't forget the new members of our Design Team!
Hannelie Bester (Joined March 2024)
From placing my first order at Altenew in 2016, to this joyous day where I am part of the Altenew Design team, has been an amazing journey. I fell in love with Altenew's timeless and elegant designs right from the start and entering the Inspiration challenge monthly was a great way to learn and grow. I feel extremely grateful to be working alongside the designers who have been my inspiration for so long, Now I have the opportunity to inspire others and I can't wait for this journey to continue!
Erica Andersson (joined March 2024)
I have just recently joined the Altenew Design Team, but the whole team have been so warm and welcoming, it feels like coming home and finding my people. Having a creative space where everyone shares a love of Altenew is amazing, and knowing the support and encouragement reach you through this wonderful community from all over the world is simply amazing. I’m hoping to bring smiles to people’s faces and inspiration to their creative process with my card making. That’s my main aim with sharing my work, to inspire and evoke a sense of ‘I want to do that too’. Using Altenew products with their genius and well-designed elements takes so much guesswork out of the whole thing, it makes it such a joy to create.
Carissa Wiley (Joined March 2024)
I'm thrilled to be joining the Altenew Design Team. I've worked with Altenew over many years in many ways, but this is my first stint on the design team. I'm excited to share inspiration and creativity through blog posts and videos on the Altenew channels. I'm looking forward to putting a sparkly spin on some already fabulous products! Altenew has always been a leader in innovation, inspiration and style in the crafting community. Their products are always so true to their unique brand and I enjoy working with them. I know that when I'm working with Altenew products, I can expect quality, beauty and versatility every single time!
Bibi Cameron (Joined March 2024)
I always dreamed to be part of the Altenew family. The products are gorgeous, innovative, and what I like the most is that they are extremely easy to use. The product coordination is incredible and it benefit crafters who want to feel like pros when they are just starting. Sharing about products like these within the crafty community is simply irresistible to me! I hope to be able to be amongst the group of people who will be sharing for very first time ideas and inspiration using the latest Altenew supplies.
