WELCOME

Welcome! 

I'm so glad you found your way to my site.

My love of crafting began with a needlepoint project for Girl Scounts. So, I have been a crafter for many years!  I hand stamped my daughter's birth announcements 33 years ago when I knew no one who handmade their cards.  They were pretty basic, but I loved that I made them myself! 

Some years later I was introduced to Stampin' UP! and I had been a customer ever since.  I find crafting to be very fun and relaxing. And nothing beats the sense of accomplishment of making something beautiful to share with someone else! 

Eventually,  I decided to become a Demonstrator to combine my love of crafting and my passion for teaching into one awesome opportunity.

Over time I have found equal, if not more, enjoyment through sending my cards to others.  Stampin' UP! has put a lot of thought into their "WHY" of why they do what they do.  And while, yes, it is a business, it can (and does) have a beautiful humanitarian effect on those who are the receipients of lovely and heartfelt creations.  On a mission to eradicate loneliness, Sara Douglas, the CEO of Stampin' UP! often talks about how important it is for people to feel seen and heard...to have their presences acknowledged. There are many groups sprouting up that connect people who could use a boost of moral support, birthday creatings and words of support with those who make and send cards.
And, I do still love helping people create beautiful projects to enjoy themselves or send to others.
 

WHY STAMPIN' UP!?

I love the coordination between the Stampin' UP products: ink, cardstock, Designer Series Paper (DSP), ribbons and more that match in color.  The quality of Stampin' UP! products, in my opinion, is unmatched.  The selection is vast. 
Additionally, the company holds great value for what we do as paper crafters and the difference we make.  Gathering together with others to chat and craft is a great way to spend time.  Won't you join us?

Stamping your own cards and scrapbook pages is fun to learn.  I'm here to help you learn how to use the tools and how to tap into your creativity.  Once you get going, the hardest thing about stamping is going to be deciding what project is next!!!
