A New Adventure Begins...


      I'm embarking on a new adventure and I hope you'll come along for the ride!  After 15 years as a consultant for Close To My Heart,  I am now officially a demonstrator for Stampin' Up.  

     I am missing CTMH already, but I'm also excited for new experiences and opportunities.  Stampin' Up is a much larger company with many more products to choose from.  In the past they have primarily had a cardmaking focus, but now are working hard and fast to expand into the scrapbooking market as well.  Both companies are working in harmony to make this transition as smooth as possible for everyone.

     You will want to know that Stampin' Up has a LOT more products online than they have in the catalogs.  Be sure to check out the online store!  Each month I'll have a host code for you to add to your order.  If you order under my name and use the host code,  I will punch your rewards card so you can earn surprises.   

     The adventure begins....
