Do you find it tough to connect with your friends and family as a grown up? I hear ya! And that was before we moved 3 hours away from them. Making and sending cards to those people helps me stay connected. Think about how you feel when you get actual mail from someone who's thinking about you. It's a great feeling and one you can spread to whoever you'd like.

Before I found Stampin' Up!, I didn't understand the big deal about these "rubber stamps."  Then I tried it.  It's so much more than just stamping some ink on a piece of paper.  For me, stamping is the best hobby and business I’ve ever found. 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.

I'm an administrative assistant at my local public library during the weekdays. My husband and I have two grown kids and three small grandkids - they keep us busy and happy. And those grandboys love to come into my studio and stamp.
