In Stacey's Words:
Why Jacquard: Magic happened when NAMTA and Creativation merged
"Knowing Jacquard products by reputation but never having the opportunity to learn about them, attending the NAMTA-Creativation show in 2022 was a game changer for me. It was there that I met Jacquard President Asher Katz, who showed me a world of products that sparked an immediate love for the brand. True to my 'outside of the box' thinking, I envisioned how makers could take more traditional Fine Art products and incorporate them into their makes. I have always tried to convey through my wide social media reach that when you start with the best products you end with the best results. And to me, Stacey, that meant Jacquard was THE manufacturer I wanted to partner with."
Why did I start with Inks?
"As an avid maker and a retail store owner, I get to see and hear firsthand what makers are looking for, and at the top of the list is quality. So, when I had the chance to collaborate with the chemists at Jacquard, I was excited to develop an ink that would perform exceptionally yet be accessible to anyone in the crafting community, at any level. After the first 12 dye-based colors launching in January, I will be building on this assortment to release in conjunction with my own collection of dies, stamps, stencils, and embossing folders by Sizzix."
