About Us
Cloud9 Crafts is an online store that opened its virtual doors in September 2018 and was originally run from a small apartment in the heart of Amsterdam. In 2020, our family and the shop made a fresh start in Wieringerwaard, a small village in the north of the Netherlands, where Cloud9 Crafts continues to grow and create. Day by day, we work hard to expand our product range, and we regularly share personal experiences and projects on our inspiration page, Instagram, and in the Cloud9 Crafters Facebook group. We are based in the Netherlands, but our aim is to serve customers all across Europe!
What does Cloud 9 mean?
Cloud 9 is the English equivalent of the Dutch expression “being in seventh heaven.” Our mission is to inspire as many people as possible and provide the tools needed to experience that happy, uplifting Cloud 9 feeling together with us.
How did Cloud9 Crafts begin?
Cloud9 Crafts had been in the works for years but remained nothing more than a dream due to countless excuses. That dream suddenly became tangible in April 2018 after an unexpected reunion with Dendennis designer Dennis van den Brink. At the time, I knew Dennis not only from his beautiful, fun, and highly accessible crochet books, but also as a graphic designer. I felt his style perfectly matched my vision for Cloud9 Crafts—and that turned out to be absolutely right. In no time, Dennis designed the amazing Cloud9 Crafts logo, and Cloud9 Crafts was officially born.
Our Team
Hi there! My name is Yuki, and welcome to Cloud9 Crafts! As a curious, creative, and enthusiastic “paper lover,” I’m passionate about everything paper, from cardmaking to memory planning, journaling, and everything in between. I have a big love for kawaii style, soft pastel colors, fluffy clouds, and all the tiny details that make things extra special. What started as a hobby quickly turned into a place where I can share my favorite finds with you. I’m always on the lookout for the cutest, happiest supplies to make your creative time even more fun. So whether you're crafting, planning, or just collecting pretty things. I’m here to help you sprinkle a little extra joy and bring you that magical Cloud 9 feeling!
In my spare time I spent a lot time on my hobby. I love to make cute & CAS Cards, colors, coloring with Copic Markers or pencils. I am addicted to patterned paper, shaker and interactive cards. I claimed near half of the livingroom where I installed my lovely crafty workspace. Hop along my blog Colorful Cornelie or join a fun cardmaking challenge on the Lift Challenge Blog!
Hi everyone! My name is Nancy, and I'm a member of the Cloud9 Crafts Design Team. I have always loved crochet, crafting, coloring, cutting and pasting. At the beginning of 2019 I discovered cardmaking. I love bright colors, especially blues and greens and secrectly I am a paper hoarder.
While I craft, my workplace turns very fast in a mess, but my work is very precise. What can you expect from me? Fun, creativity, enthusiasm, super nice and beautiful cards, to give, to receive, or to give it to yourself. You can find me on Creastudio Nancy or on my Youtube channel.
Hi you! I'm Jarle, a happy crafter from Belgium. When I'm not at work or snuggling with my cat Smiel, you can find me in my little craft space. I started my creative journey with some hand-lettering and after a little while, browsing YouTube, I discovered the joys of cardmaking. The whole process of creating a card from scratch and making someone smile by sending them some happy mail... It just makes me super happy. I am extremely excited and fortunate to be joining the awesome Cloud9 Crafts Design Team. All these ladies are super talented and I absolutely adore Yuki's shop. You can discover my work on my YouTube Channel,
on my blog and on my Instagram. I hope I can give you some awesome inspiration.

Hi! I am Jur(riaan), partner of Yuki and a father of our two children. Beside my work as a data consultant, I help keeping the shop organized both in the virtual world as in real life. Don't be surprised to have your emails answered by me during busy periods. When I'm not behind a computer screen crunching numbers, you will most likely find me outside in the garden or working in my tool shed!
