Kristina Werner has always had a love for art and design. After earning her degree in graphic design, she started sharing her creative projects online through her blog. When readers kept asking how she tied those perfect ribbon knots (and writing it out just wasn’t cutting it), she picked up a camera and started making videos—and everything clicked!

Fast forward 20 years, and Kristina has built a fun, welcoming cardmaking community on YouTube. These days, she combines her design background with her passion for paper crafting to create products for the cardmaking world (you can check out her line of products HERE) and shares her favorite ways to use them in her videos.

She lives just outside Salt Lake City, Utah, with her husband and their two sweet American Shorthair tabby cats, Kevin and Fred—who occasionally make guest appearances in her craft room.
