I’m really enjoying each element of the new Lovely Blossoms suite: the stamps, dies, paper, ribbon, gems and embossing folder. Each work so well together, but they are also designed to work well on their own or with paired with another product. I’ve showcased this suite in two different live classes and will be doing a third tomorrow. (January 27).…
As I mentioned in my previous post, I joined Stampin’ Up! as a demonstrator exactly 19 years ago today. If you missed that post, you can read it here.

Today I celebrate and begin my 19th year as a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator! Whoop Whoop! When I joined in 2007, I had only heard about Stampin’ Up! 4 months earlier. Since the very beginning, Stampin’ Up! has been the only paper crafting company I’ve ever used. I attended a card making class at our local YWCA and instantly fell in…
We had Stamp Club this week where we get together once a month and make cards & projects. Each card was very different from the other: a Valentine, a floral card (that I will post about later) and this adorable sheep Bridge Card made with the fab-ewe-lous Woolly Friends Bundle. As my friend Barbara would say: It’s “Stinkin’ Cute” (and…

Many of you know that I go live with my friend Ann Lewis, who is a demonstrator in Australia, once a month. This joint venture will continue in 2026, but we are changing things up a bit. Rather than just demonstrate a card/project, we are inviting you to make the card/project right along with us. Have you ever heard of…
