Today marks 11 Years as a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator. The past 11 years as a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, have be such a true blessing. I would love to share a little about my Stampin’ Up! Story.
20 years ago a co-worker gave me a handmade Birthday card and I absolutely fell in love with it. I asked if she made it and she said yes, would you like to learn how? I teach classes. Without hesitation, I said YES!!! I immediately fell in love with the quality of the product!! I loved how everything matched, from the paper, ink pads, and markers. I even fell in love with the magic of Heat Embossing.
Fast forward to 2014, when I suddenly had to become a full-time caregiver for my mom and I needed a creative outlet. I remembered how much I loved paper crafting and since I did not sew beautiful things like my mother, I wanted something to do that I knew I could handle and still put a smile on people’s faces. So, I joined not only to get a 20% discount on all my favorite crafting supplies, but I joined an incredible community that is my family!!! Sadly, my mom lost her battle with Alzheimer’s in 2016, but I am beyond blessed to have such a wonderful community behind me and a fun creative outlet to keep me smiling.
I really love that I can either run this as a business or get a nice discount on my favorite supplies. Below I have listed some of my top benefits of being a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator:

I colored my elf with the following Stampin’ Blends: Dark, Light Old Olive, Pecan Pie, Dark Smoky Slate, and Wink of Stella
We colored Santa on the Live together. I colored him with Light Real Red, Light Cherry Cobbler, Light Petal Pink for his face, Light Pretty in Pink, and Dark Smoky Slate. Finished it off with Wink of Stella. Be sure to check out the video for my coloring tip
Of course I had to add Mr Snowman in the mix. I colored him Real Red, Dark and Old Olive, added a little Cloud Cover around his face and body and finish up with Wink of Stella.
