Join me for classes, ideas, and all sorts of sharing! I’m a nurse by day, but at night, I love to create!
I am an Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator for Stampin’ Up!, a premiere percrafting company that has more than 30 years experience providing quality rubber stamping and scrapbooking paper products, inks, stamps and tools! I love Stampin’ Up! and will be sharing ideas that you can duplicate in your own papercrafting space.
On April 30th, 2023, I will be celebrating 15 years with Stampin’ Up! I teach papercrafting classes in my home in Lynnfield Massachusetts, and I try to do weekly facebook lives (uploaded to YouTube!) that feature different products that Stampin’ Up! carries. These FB lives are meant to inspire and teach. I love what I do and I love to share my inspiration with you! I can also help with scrapbooking or gift packaging idea

Thoughtful Expressions Stack & Shuffle Cards!
I did my Facebook Live last night and featured 3 cards made with the Thoughtful Expressions bundle. I added a bit of interest though by doing the Stack & Shuffle method. Doesn't that sound like a country line dance or something?! That's the first thing I thought...
My One-Day Retreat this past Saturday!
Sorry that I was MIA for a week -- I did 40+ hours in the clinic last week AND ran a one-day retreat! Today, I thought I'd share some pictures! I took a panoramic photo of the room before it got too full of people and bags! Our theme was the Simply Zinnia online...
Easter Lilies … Happy Easter!
A third card in my Easter class was this lovely Easter Lilies card. It's so clean and simple! Unfortunately, as I was editing my post and buidling the supply list, I realized that the dies are no longer available. I can't see it on the inventory list so it must...
Excellent Eggs Card 2!
Check out my 2nd Excellent Eggs Ester Card!
Excellent Eggs Card 1!
On my Facebook Live (and in class last week) I featured some Easter stamp sets/bundles. I'm going to share my first card today -- come back tomorrow for Card 2! It's going to be a super-quick post today because I'm already at work, waiting for my first patient to...

Still More Softly Stippled Sale-a-bration Products/Samples
I wanted to do 4 days of posts using a Sale-a-bration product this week. If you haven't caught on yet, this week I'm featuring the Softly Stippled Designer Paper. This paper coordinates with the Softly Stippled Rose stamp set that I may or may not get before the end...
Day 2 of Softly Stippled Sale-a-bration DSP!
Again today, I'm using the textured patterns of the Softly Stippled Sale-a-bration DSP. One side of the paper has designs and the other side features more solid colors with some texture. I again decided to use the Planted Paradise stamp set that I featured here...
Softly Stippled Meets Planted Paradise
As a demonstrator, one of the perks is that you can preorder before the regular customer. Besides that, another perk is that Sale-a-bration, Stampin' Up!'s annual fabulous sale, lasts for 3 months instead of 2! So, I've already been ordering and achieving! As a perk...
