Growing in Love

HALLMARK KEEPSAKE ARTIST

Terri Steiger takes her time gathering ideas and inspiration. It’s her favorite part of creating Keepsake Ornaments. She loves diving deep into the Hallmark Archives-a treasure trove of vintage cards, design patterns, and gift products from Hallmark’s rich history. The inspiration she finds can influence a design, a story, or sometimes an entire concept. No matter the source, Terri’s ultimate goal is to make sure the meaning behind an ornament always shines through.

As she grew, Azusa developed a lifelong love of animals, comic books, and Japanese anime that still influences her art today. “I like making things that people find cute and sweet,” she says, “and I am so happy that I can make a meaningful difference for others by doing something I like to do!“
