Hi, I’m Kathleen, the creator behind Zaphoot Designs.

Before Zaphoot, I spent many years working in child welfare as a social worker and later as a kindergarten teacher. Creativity and caring for others have always been part of my life.

These days, I’m the owner, designer and person answering your messages. Designing is my poetry—a way to bring imagination, emotion and a touch of magic to everyday moments.

I create animated video eCards in three styles: Elegant & Magical, Cute & Whimsical, and Gothic & Unusual. Each is a finished digital download, ready to share with someone special.

With three children still at home and our rescue dog, Skye, keeping me company, life is full of family, work and the occasional drama. I love the bustle—and somehow, there’s always room for another creative idea.
