Kelly Marie Alvarez

Kelly Marie's love for crafting started at a very young age, making greeting cards using crayons and notebook paper. She recently found a card she made for her grandfather at the age of eight that she labeled with "Kelly Cards Inc." on the back. A future in crafting was definitely meant to be! After double majoring in biochemistry and music at UCSD, Kelly decided to follow her dreams and created Lawn Fawn. She owns and operates the company, along with her husband, Mike, and friend, Erica. Kelly Marie is inspired by fun and bright design and interacting with crafters all around the world. Her cards and layouts have been published in leading craft magazines, including the cover of Paper Crafts.

She lives in Orange County, California with her husband, Mike. When Kelly Marie is not crafting or running Lawn Fawn, she is playing music, visiting friends and family or hanging at the beach.
