About Me: Graphic Designer and Artist - Gemma Crossley
Hello, and thank you for visiting my shop! My name is Gemma Crossley, and I am the creator and owner of Digital Gems.
I have always been passionate about art from a young age, constantly sketching and drawing. Over time, I pursued a career as a Graphic Designer and Artist, with my works being showcased in galleries, craft fairs, and online platforms.
As a mother of six wonderful children, I started my Etsy shop to balance my professional aspirations with family life. Etsy has given me the flexibility to work from home and contribute to my family’s income while taking care of my children.
I specialize in creating downloadable art, including SVG cutting files for Cricut and Silhouette machines, PNG clipart, and paper cut templates for hand cutting. Although I enjoy many art forms, my true passion lies in paper cutting. I love transforming simple paper into stunning works of art, each of which begins as a rough hand-drawn sketch and is then refined digitally.
My designs are inspired by various sources, including the beautiful countryside and places like the Yorkshire Sculpture Park. The artwork there is incredibly inspiring, and I aim to incorporate that energy into my own creations.
I’m proud to share that I am now a contributing artist for Cricut and was honored to win an award from Theo Paphitis for my business. These milestones mean a lot to me, and I’m grateful for the support from my wonderful customers.
Thank you for taking the time to read my biography. I hope you enjoy exploring my shop and find something that inspires you!
