Meet Tatiana

Your Crafting Retreat Host! ✨🎨

Hi, I’m Tatiana, and I’m a proud crafting addict! 🎉 If there’s a craft out there, chances are I’ve tried it at least once. But in late 2016, I stumbled upon the wonderful world of stamping and card making, and it completely stole my heart. I loved it so much that by January 2017, I became an Independent Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator—and I’ve been sharing my passion ever since!

I know how challenging it can be to carve out time for creativity in our busy lives. That’s exactly why I started running Crafting Retreats—to give fellow crafters like you the chance to escape, unwind, and enjoy some much-needed “me time.”

No matter what type of crafting sparks your joy—quilting, scrapbooking, card making, stitching—I’d love to welcome you to one of my retreats. These weekends are all about fun, friendship, creativity, and relaxation!

Want to see more of my card making and paper crafting creations? Check out my blog:

I absolutely love what I do, and I can’t wait to share the joy of crafting with you!

Testimonials:

I had a wonderful,  relaxing time at Tatiana’s retreat.

– Jane Mann

I look forward to each Crafting Retreat by Tatiana. She creates such a good welcoming space with her own artistic touches for us, as well as her friendly manner, skills and good humour. The flexibility of the activities and time provide for each individual, and the friendly helpful group is so good to be with. All details of tasks, meals, work-space, tools and materials are carefully provided for. I highly recommend this weekend of “restful concentration and enjoyment” to newcomers.

– Christine T

I can’t believe how quick the time can go. Everything is so well organised by Tatiana, so much thought is given to the little details. The make and takes are great with good instruction, but you can add your own touch. It is so much fun to attend. 

– Debra

An interesting, fun and friendly weekend. I loved it!

– Cherie

I look forward to coming to Tatiana’s Crafting Retreat, very well organised, lots of space to work on your own or new projects. Meet new and old friends. Very relaxed atmosphere, with lots of surprises, gifts, games, laughs and yummy food catered for everyone through out the weekend. Tatiana is an amazing person and host.
