Amanda Stevens

Amanda is one of the founders of Pear Blossom Press, a company focused on offering unique and innovative products for papercrafters. As a long-time crafter, she has worked with all types of mediums, but her favorite of all is cardmaking. She loves to take tools and techniques from other fields and develop them specifically for papercrafts. When she isn't teaching in person, or through videos, she is busy developing new products.
“I can’t wait to hang out with everyone at the retreat! It’s so much more fun to craft together.” - Amanda
