Hi, my name is Donna and welcome to Donna's Designs!
I started stamping in Autumn of 2008. All my cards are handmade. For me creating cards is about more than just rubber stamps and ink - it's about sharing a part of yourself and your creativity with others. While I generally have some idea of what I want to do, the end product always surprises me! I am enjoying every moment of my creative journey.
As Donna's Designs branches out you will see my cards on various galleries. I'm also known as "Ocicat" on Splitcoaststampers. I hope this site will inspire you to create something wonderful!
Those who know me know my love for Ocicats. They are my family and I am delighted to share them with you. Most people are in awe of the magnificent Ocicat. First contact with one of these spotted creatures will create a visual impact you will never forget. They shine with the exotic beauty of spotted cats from the wild!
I would also like to share with you my passion for gardening. As you stroll through my gardens you will see a lot of native plants, which attract butterflies and hummingbirds. You will contemplate the ambiance from one of the many stone benches. Clematis and honeysuckle bushes overlook the all season perennials.
I hope you enjoy your tour and take in all the architectural elements I have incorporated into my gardens; whether it be the gazebo, arbor, tuteurs, trellises or the fountain, I'm sure you will find something you like.
Fall is my favorite time of year! There is nothing more spectacular than seeing my Virginia sweetspire, fothergilla, burning bush, sumac and maples turn brilliant colors. My asters, chrysanthemums, goldenrod, and helenium all come alive.
