The Crafter's Workshop

The Crafter's Workshop

We are a family-owned, independent manufacturer & distributor of some very cool templates and stencils. We began as a small paper arts shop in 1997, selling lovely papers, fine art supplies and all sorts of delicious things. One day in 1997, we realized that the only thing missing was a great assortment of unique templates. And Voilà! The Crafter’s Workshop templates & stencils was born!

Jaime, our designer and founder, creates most of the designs along with some very talented Signature Artists. Virginia, Margie, Diane and Sally are here to answer your phone calls and emails. And then of course there’s us, the cast of elves who are busily making, packing, picking and shipping all of your orders (yes, we make and package everything right here in the USA!) Whew! It’s a big job keeping Scrapbookers, Stampers, Cardmakers, Quilters, Fiber Artists, Decorative Artists and everyone-in-between-Artists happy. But somehow we do it.
