Being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator is so rewarding. Not only do I get to be creative every day, I also get to be a creative coach, offering fresh project ideas and encouragement to my customers and friends. For me, helping someone put together that perfect project for a special occasion is the best feeling in the entire world. After all, creating cards, scrapbook pages, and gift items is about more than just stamps and ink—it’s about sharing a part of yourself with the people you love.

My story began in 2004. I had gone to Charlotte, NC to visit my son, daughter-in-law and my 2 granddarlin's. I was greeted at the door by my daughter-in-law who proudly announced, "Guess what!?! We're having a Stampin' Up! party!" And I said, "a what?" I had never heard of Stampin' Up! But I soon learned about all the cool, quality products offered and the things you could make with them. After the party we were so pumped that my daughter-in-law and her best friend signed up! And so did I! I am now into my 19th year as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator and each year it gets better and better. As a retired Kindergarten teacher, I now teach my customers how they can create beautiful cards, scrapbook pages and home decor items.
I cannot tell you the joy and excitement I have gotten out of being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, making new friends all over the USA and the world, and enjoying our craft!
