N&T IG Team

No offense to Facebook, and Snapchat, and YouTube, and all those other sites, but Instagram is by far our favorite social media channel, and we're pretty sure that you guys like it a lot too.

As a result, this year we're introducing an Instagram team!  These lovely ladies will be sharing their talents with you over on Instagram this year!

First we have Maria Peters, @a_country_home

Hello everyone,

my name is Maria. I’m 48 years old, based in Hamburg, Germany where I live with my husband and

my 12-years-old son.

I started with cardmaking in June 2015 and shared my cards on Instagram since December 2015.

I am creative in different ways since I was a child. I blogged two years about my other hobbies like DIY, Home Decoration, Baking and Bookbinding.

Then I gave up the blog because it needs too much time and I haven’t.

From time to time I made cards for birthdays or Christmas, but I haven’t any idea that such a great card making community exist.

And how many fantastic products are on the market.

I discovered this in June 2015 and since this time card making is my passion and my personal therapy.

I love to create scenes and I love it colorful.

Card making is pure relaxing for me.

I forget all around me when I make my cards.

Especially coloring is like Yoga for me.

That’s such a great compensation to my stressful (non-creative) job.

I met so many wonderful people with the same hobby on IG.

That amaze me every day!

Wish you all a wonderful day!

Love, Maria

Here are a few of Maria's favorite cards featuring Neat & Tangled

Next up is Sharna Waksmulski @cardsbysharna

I've been a crafter since I could hold a crayon & even got a degree in photography. It wasn't until 2012 that I got into cardmaking & stamping when I first found a local paper crafting store. The rest they say is history!

I reside in Morton Grove, IL a suburb of Chicago with my husband & son and one aloof cat.

And last but not least, Natalie Elphinstone @natalieelph who is also on the IG team



Hi, I'm Natalie and I live in Melbourne, Australia. I'm the wife to The Trophy Husband and a mum to The Elphie Kids (3 of them to be exact, with a 4th expected next year!) I work full time as an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist, but I also have a deep and abiding passion for paper craft. I think it often becomes my form of relaxation and therapy! I'm a scrapbooker, card-maker, Project-Lifer and bible-journaler who wants to use #allthecolours #allthetime and I currently also design for Sizzix and Jot Magazine. I'm so excited about joining the Neat and Tangled team and can't wait to get started!

And here are some of Natalie's favorite N&T projects:
