1. How long have you been creating Roses of Distinction/how did it begin?
June 2007 I also designed a dozen Baby’s first year roses for my husband’s dear friend and colleague’s 1st grandchild.
I have a soft spot in my heart for this dear child Amelia Marie born prematurely on June 13th 2006. She shares her name with my mother in law Amelia (a nurse) and her twin sister Marie (a Doctor) born June 12th 1930. Little Amelia Marie’s mom is also a Dr.
I wanted to do something special to commemorate this very important first year of life for the family. I designed a rose for each of the 12 months and presented them to the family as a gift of life.
I have been actively designing and promoting my roses for many years and now I am ready to move forward and am very excited!
September 2009 I decided that I wanted to pursue KatieSheaDesigns as a family business.
My grown children are joining me. My youngest son is a graphic designer/artist. My daughter is in pharmaceutical marketing and also a talented artist. My oldest son has just graduated from college with a Business/Marketing degree.
