I started as a Stampin’ Up! customer back in the early 2000’s, when my boys were toddlers. I immediately fell in love with the quality of the products as well as being able to make custom cards, scrapbook pages, and other paper crafted products.

Over the years, as life became busy, I wasn’t doing as much with my paper crafting. Toward the end of 2019, a friend reintroduced me to Stampin’ Up! I immediately saw how much Stampin’ Up! had grown with their product offerings and their quality. I quickly found I could make professional looking cards on my own using our coordinated line of products.

For almost a year, I was a happy shopper. Then I asked about becoming a Happy Discount Shopper. I joined as a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator on September 1, 2020 with the plan of just being a Happy Discount Shopper.

After joining, my previous Stampin’ Up! demonstrator (who had gotten out of Stampin’ Up! years ago) decided to rejoin and she joined my team. Since then, I’ve had others join my team and have promoted up from a Bronze level demonstrator to a Silver level demonstrator.

The encouragement, friendship, and care I have received from my teammates in the Luv 2 Stamp group (my upline’s group) has been wonderful. These ladies and gentlemen have really helped me grow as a paper crafter.

I am NOT creative and never thought I would be able to design a card or other paper craft product on my own. Since joining in 2020, I have found the creativity inside me. I love that I can “case” (copy and selectively edit) other’s projects and I really love that I can also design something unique of my own.

Joining Stampin’ Up! has been a gift. It’s given me something positive to focus on in daily life. We all get busy and sometimes forget to truly enjoy each day. My teammates and my creative outlet keep me grounded in happiness. And… I get the enjoy a 25% discount on all my Stampin’ Up! purchases.

As a team lead, I enjoy encouraging others and helping them to grow in whatever they want to do with their business. And that help has been reciprocated.

Please feel free to reach out to me with questions. I am here to help you with whatever your Stampin’ Up! needs may be, whether that be as a customer purchasing products to make your own paper crafts, as a customer purchasing finished paper crafts directly from me, or as someone who wishes to become part of the Stampin’ Up! team – and thus part of Simply Elegant Stampers.

Keep creating!
