For New and Avid Stampers, you will find inspiration several times a week on my blog.
My goal is to help you find products that fit your style and make stamping quick and easy. After you stamp a card I want you to feel giddy about your creation!
I know you don’t have time to spare, let me share with you how you can still create and send hand stamped cards to bring joy and love to your family and friends.
In 1996 I discovered Stampin’ Up! and it has brought so much joy, friendships, and satisfaction to my life.
I started sharing my love for stamping in 1998 as a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator. My passion then and still is handmade cards. Stamping is a wonderful art and can provide hours of enjoyment.
You will enjoy our exclusive stamp sets, ink pads, paper, punches and dies. All are designed to coordinate with each other and lots of exclusive embellishments to put the finishing touches on your cards. I would love to be your source for your Stampin’ Up! Products!

A little personal stuff
I was born and have lived most of my life in Alexandria, MN. I have been married to my husband Tom since 1975, we have a son and daughter and law, daughter and son in law and grandchildren (4 granddaughters, 2 grandsons).
I have had a successful Stampin’ Up! Business since 1998. I never considered myself “crafty” but when I stamped my first card at a Stampin’ Up! Workshop I was hooked.
This is one of my favorite Minnesota Magazine highlighting women. I was super excited when they called and asked if they could do a story about me and my Stampin’ Up! Business.
