Rachel Kleinman

"Hello! My name is Rachel Kleinman and I am the young author of RWKrafts. I am currently living in New Haven, Connecticut but lived most of my life in Phoenix, Arizona. I enjoy my evenings relaxing with my hubby Matt and my fur baby collection Meeko, Peanut, and Pumpkin (a dog and two guinea pigs).  I hold a full time job as a case manager for adults living with schizophrenia, and squeeze crafty time in on the weekends.

My first “scrapbook” was made in 2004 and I have been making collages since I was in single-digit years. My latest obsession is stamping and card making, which took off in 2010. My blog started in 2011 and I have absolutely loved getting to know the paper crafting community. It is such an honor to be a part of Play Date Café and to continue to meet such amazing and talented people!"

We are also very happy to have another new sponsor with us...
