I’m thrilled to introduce our Studio Star for this week….it’s Kathy Hatzke!
I asked Kathy to share a little about herself with us, and here’s what she had to say:
“I’m Kathy and I live in Oakland, Ca. I’m a mom to three wonderful kids: Mason 12, Miles 9, and Maya 6. By day, I’m an elementary school principal and stamping is my stress relief. I started stamping while on a lunch date with some girlfriends. We went into a card shop and one of them mentioned that she stamped and could make cards pretty much like what we saw in the store. I wondered how hard it could be and resolved to make my own Christmas cards that year. 5 hours and 5 cards later, I decided that it was fun but since I had no idea of what I was doing, it was time to start learning. I went to a stamp camp and discovered Splitcoaststampers and was hooked. I’ve gotten a little quicker at making cards these days
”
We ask our Studio Stars to share a project that they love and/or that represents their style. Our team has quarterly card swaps and this was one that Kathy made for us. It’s displayed in my craft room and puts a smile on my face whenever I see it!
It’s that sweet? Stop by tomorrow, Kathy has a technique challenge to share with us!


So nice to meet you, Kathy!! Great card and I simply love it! =)
