About Rae Barthel

My name is Rae Barthel. I am 39 years young; have been happily married to Tom for 15 years; and am mother to three amazing kids: Michael, 12, Lauren, 9, Matthew, 7. I grew up in the Northwest suburbs of Chicago, Illinois, but our family now calls Huntsville, Alabama, 'home'. I started making cards in 2003 when my youngest was born. My husband was deployed to Iraq, and the thought of taking three little ones (including a newborn!) to the store to choose greeting cards was exhausting! So, I cut apart my nephew's birthday invitation, and re-purposed it as his birthday card.... and my card making passion was born! My style has evolved a bit over the years, but is mainly classified as clean and simple, with an occasional touch of whimsy. I love letting product guide my card design, and am a huge fan of card sketches too! When I am not making cards, I can be found buried in a good book, or chauffeuring my children to their myriad activities: Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts, dance, softball, and many social activities too! I am absolutely thrilled to be a part of the Doghouse Diva Design Team, and am looking forward to rockin' out some fabulous cards with Nikki's awesome products!
