"Crafting with Cratejoy" Webinar Series

Meet the Influencers
Katie Clark, Clarks Condensed
Katie is a Colorado native, BYU graduate, and most importantly, wife to one and mother to three beautiful boys. She is passionate about sharing her experiences with others -- especially about pregnancy, breastfeeding, cooking, and crafts. She is currently training to be a Certified Lactation Educator. She loves spending time with her family and helping others find joy in family life.
Beth Watson, Creatively Beth
Beth’s creativity blossomed at the age of 12 with the gift of her first painting set and she’s still getting her hands messy today! Beth loves to tackle everything creative, making original projects with paint, wire, canvas, wood, markers, glue and paper. She enjoys bringing a unique twist to designs by incorporating traditional materials in unconventional ways. She’s honored to work with some fantastic companies in the creative world, such as Kunin Felt Group and DecoArt, and thrilled to be the on-air personality on HSN for Tombow USA. Her life is a series of craft fails and huge successes, but it is the creative discovery that makes the journey worthwhile!
Crystal Allen, Hello Creative Family
An avid crafter, former Etsy shop owner, and daring DIY-er, Crystal grew up in a family of creators; her passion for making started in her childhood. In 2013, she started Sew Creative Blog to inspire other parents to make creativity a part of their everyday life, and to fulfill that vision in her own. In 2015, Sew Creative Blog transformed into the digital magazine Hello Creative Family. A social media expert and former book publicist, Crystal now serves as the publisher and creative director of Hello Family Media, as well as a consultant. When she’s not crafting, cooking or writing, she’s spending time with her two children and husband in the beautiful corner of the world they call home.

She is a mother of three, wife, daughter, sister, Colorado native (4th generation), artist, geek, social media addict, packrat, paper snob, fan of cheesecake and milkshakes, and a whole slew of other things. Jen truly believes everyone has a creative side -- and sometimes, you just need to define creativity to find it for yourself. Whether you’re crafting, traveling, or enjoying a meal with friends or family, a daily goal to find a little extra happy requires some creative thinking sometimes. Jen strives to share ideas that will inspire those happy moments and creative mojo.
