A very noble crafter!
We would like to introduce you to Sharon Noble, you may already know her from her social media and YouTube channels, Sharon thought it would be interesting for you to hear about her journey to being on crafty Design Teams!
I have been on design teams for over 18 years. I started with a lady who owned an independent craft business and got hooked on being part of a creative team. Over the years I’ve been in countless design teams some blog teams , some create and craft teams and I have enjoyed the challenges each team provides me with.
How it started –
Many years ago My craft studio had a competition in a crafting magazine the prize was £250 pounds worth of My Craft Studio Prize. I entered a card which I designed in my craft studio it was the magazine cover and the factor judging desk I called it the craft factor and swapped out the judges for celebrity crafters. I was absolutely shocked when I won that gave me the confidence to contact Diane P asking to join MCS Design team. I was accepted to join after doing the bits I needed to do to prove I could make. I stayed with MCS and even played with some of the very first tattered lace dies during this time I was also on Lynda’s team creative crafting world and Pamela’s Crazy Catz team it was a huge amount of deadlines but I loved it.
Eventually I did leave Pamela’s and MCS teams as I was doing blog challenges and each weekend I’d go to a local craft shop and do demo’s I love it and sharing crafty tips never do I think I’m a professional crafter but I’m pleased that my crafting has made a difference and that I could share the love of craft.
I have made many friends during my time crafting both on and offline crafting has helped me get through a lot of personal stuff and I don’t think I’ll ever have a period of which I am not part of a team. The friendships you make along the way are second to none I feel so very blessed. I am still with Lynda all those years later and even though I love her dearly it was only last year that we met in the flesh so to speak.
Teams

Oh wow – great person to have on the Highlight team then Sharon with loads of experience.
I’ve only been in the design team since may last year and I totally agree with you – it’s an amazing feeling when you see your makes on the tv or website. I’ve already made friends and feel part of a wider community which is wonderful.
