The new beginning of a veteran SU Stamper!

Life happens!  I loved being a Stampin Up (SU) Demonstrator back in  2004, and several years after that.   I remember the SU conventions I attended and I loved every minute of them.  And then life got busier:  a blended of six children blossomed with aging adult children, daughter-in-laws, and grandkids, all while my full-time career as an educator grew in demands and responsibilities.  

But now... well, I'm retired, ok...semi-retired.  I'm still a very busy grandma of seven active boys and one spunky girl, but I've learned that taking care of me and my need to be creative helps me keep my balance so I can have fun with my family too.  

I'm still a teacher at heart, which is why I love being a demonstrator.  I get to be creative, make new "adult" friends, and share (teach and learn) new papercraft creations.  I hope you'll join me!

One of the first things I did right before becoming a renewed demonstrator is to sign up for the Paper Pumpkin subscription.  What an excellent way to get sets of stamps, ink spots and trimmed paper and accessories to make crafty creations. Not to mention the precise directions and video support to make the monthly paper crafts.  Plus getting my Paper Pumpkin makes me feel like it's my birthday or Christmas every month when my package arrives full of these goodies.
