Being an Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator is so rewarding. Not only do I get to be creative every day, I also get to be a creative coach, offering fresh project ideas and encouragement to my customers and crafting friends.
For me, helping someone put together that perfect project for a special occasion is the best feeling in the entire world. After all, creating cards, scrapbook pages, and gift items is about more than just stamps and ink—it’s about sharing a part of yourself with the people you love.
For one day only on September 18th, Stampin’ Up! is giving FREE SHIPPING on all orders of $100 or more (before tax). Get ready for the busy festive crafting season by stocking up on basic supplies like adhesives, cardstock, and envelopes. Why not take advantage of this great deal and add a couple of things to your order from the new Mini Catalogue or scrapbooking brochure as well?
If you are a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator AKA “HAPPY CRAFTER” one of your perks you receive is your 20-25% discount off all catalogue or Online Exclusive pricing. And now get Free Shipping. That is a sweet deal.
Want to know more and not sure where to start! I’ve got you covered. Stampin’ Kits or the PrePaid Paper Pumpkin Subscriptions would be great ways to start. Both qualify for FREE SHIPPING too!

I realized I have not written you for a little while.
What a season we have had. Sunshine, hot and humid days, rainy days to help our farmers fields. A real good mix of weather to enjoy.
I know Im sure loving to sit in my yard listening and watching the birds and the bunnies. They keep our little Leo busy. He is always looking for a friend to play with.
We had our grand daughter, Kaia over for an afternoon swim. Oh! What a delight she is and how beautiful she is growing. We just love her to bits. And that giggle. Man, it just warms your heart. DELIGHTFUL. 🥰
As I heal from my surgery, physiotherapy is going well. I sometimes don’t feel like there are no improvements and keeping the discomfort at bay but the therapist & surgeon say I am. No pain no gain. It was explained that since I have gone so long not using all my muscle groups it will take time to build up strength. So I guess I am getting there. It just will be wonderful to get back to my new normal routines, my teaching, my hairstyling clients and supports I provide with my Passport clients. This time off has shown me even more to continue to do what I love. Im thankful for that.
Studio 54 has been relatively steady.
So grateful to have happy stampers, and my Winking Stellar Team to keep me in line.
We have had some times to gather for Coffee&Card.
Christmas In July was a really fun day. 8 ladies joined in to play BINGO, craft making cards and getting ready to build up energy to Yell “PRIZE PATROL & BINGO”
I do look forward to gathering and get crafty with a load of dates and special times in the fall and winter. I will post in my calendar on my website. As soon as I can. My plan is to return to work-work once the medical team clears me.
So much is continuing to surprise crafters with Stampin’ Up! From Bonus Days in July, and if you purchased then you will have received Credit codes to use now between August 1-31.
15% off the beautiful Designer Series Paper from the Annual Catalogue. If you took advantage of my Product Share back in May; is there a favourite or a well loved paper you need more of ?? Now is the time. As a Demonstrator that would mean up to 40% off. A little perk being on my Winking Stellars Team.
Never paper crafted before or you feel you are not crafty. I have you covered.

I hosted the end of April a Catalogue Launch Party that was full of crafting and bingo, games and lots of laughter and of course can’t come to the studio without hearing “Prize Patrol” or BINGO …
The participants received Cardstock Samples of all 5 In Colours, a Bookmark featuring these colours, an embellishment pack, table top gifts, 4 card packs they created and took home using product from the New Annual Catalogue. We had so much fun I forgot to take pictures during the event. Hopefully next time I will remember. 🤣 I did take pictures of the projects made.
The new catalogue format has changed from other years yet it offers inspiration and ideas for all level of crafters. Whether you have never crafted before or you have inked for years. This Catty will give exactly what you need for your crafting journey. Let me give you a rundown:
Top Ten Crafting Essentials (p. 16–17) Introducing the top essential products on these pages for a Beginner Crafter, then you can add onto these as you build on your experience and get inspired by opening up more creativity.
Mix & Match (p. 18–19) Do you want CARDS choreographed for you. WE’ve take all the guess work out so go ahead and order an ephemera pack plus a set of cards and envelopes. Add a sentiment stamp set and get creating! Did I say EASY PEASY LEMON SQUEEZY
Basic Card Design (p. 22) Encouraging the paper crafter to expand their creativity by introducing you to CARD SKETCHES. Simply choose card designs from the bottom of the page and pair them with a cute colour combo.
Memory Keeping (p.26–27, 98–99) Memories & More Card Packs and Variety Pack 6″ x 8″ (15.2 x 20.3 cm) Photo Pocket Pages make an easy #scrapbooking experience (or you can add the cards to card bases to create a stack of quick cards). For traditional scrapbooking fans, pair stamp sets and dies with our beautiful Designer Series Papers to make eye-catching scrapbook pages in your favorite style. I love the 12”x12” Coloured card-stock great to coordinate with the gorgeous DSP – designer, series, paper, or some might call double-sided paper
Product Suites (p. 34–73) Pick your favourite suite or bundle, make a bunch of cards, paper projects and share your creations on social sites, like Pinterest or Instagram. You will be amazed at who is going to love your projects.
Techniques Galore (p. 81–91, 118–131) Technique Techniques Techniques | The possibilities are endless and interesting to try out new things! Growing your skill set, you are more inclined to use products you wondered what to do with what you already have or purchased, and why not learn about new products that you want to add to your stash!
Metallic Magic (p. 110–111) Who doesn’t love shimmer and shine? Hence why my team is named WINKING STELLARS — Come to a class solely on all things bling, and take your inspiration to new heights. Reach for those Stars!
Colour Theory (p. 132–133) Grow your color confidence! Dive into the theory of mixing coordinating and contrasting colors. What new color combinations will you pick? Oh! My!
I hear the Colour wheel will be available later this year to purchase. Stay Tuned. I will let you know when it become available.

You may know I had shoulder surgery the end of March 2024. Im recovering quite well. Very slowly but surely. Between the physiotherapy and time I will be all healed by the autumn (I don’t want to say fall because thats how I got here.) There is something called patience which I’m working on trying to find. However getting help to provide you with all the crafting events has been nothing short of AMAZING. I’m so thankfully blessed. I want to get back to doing #avirtualhangout Facebook Lives. I miss popping on. No matter when I do them they are recorded so you can revisit them anytime that suits you. What times are best to watch LIVE ??? Send me a message, let me know what content you want to see, stamping tips, techniques, fancy fun folds, etc.

Last week Update
ONSTAGE in Houston
What an amazing time away. My heart is full. I was so fortunate to share this experience with one of my Winking Stellar team, Marie and a few others from my Stamp2Cre8 team, Stephanie & Judy. We did have a BLAST! (No pun intended)
Here are a few of many photos taken over the 3 Day event. I got to meet some of my Stampin’ Heroes – So Star Struck! Connecting with some new faces, and other demo friends from around North America and around the globe I have met in the past during my 6 years as Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator.
I even got to walk actually DANCE across the stage as I celebrated my 5 Year Milestone Anniversary with my peeps. I danced like no-one was watching! HA! HA! Huge Highlight for me to Celebrate my 5 Year from last year! THANKS to all my supporters. I cannot do this without you all! 💜
I will be hosting a New Annual Catalogue Launch Party in May so stay tuned. TBD There will be games/ prize patrol/ BINGO/ crafty make & takes with new products.

Research has shown that crafting, regardless of the medium you use, can bolster mood, improve self-confidence, and reduce stress overall. In addition, crafting has also shown to improve mental agility, improves both gross and fine motor movements, and also decrease cognitive decline.
