Join me for classes, ideas, and all sorts of sharing! I’m a nurse by day, but at night, I love to create!

I am an Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator for Stampin’ Up!, a premiere percrafting company that has more than 30 years experience providing quality rubber stamping and scrapbooking paper products, inks, stamps and tools!  I love Stampin’ Up! and will be sharing ideas that you can duplicate in your own papercrafting space.

On April 30th, 2023, I will be celebrating 15 years with Stampin’ Up!  I teach papercrafting classes in my home in Lynnfield Massachusetts, and I try to do weekly facebook lives (uploaded to YouTube!) that feature different products that Stampin’ Up! carries. These FB lives are meant to inspire and teach.  I love what I do and I love to share my inspiration with you! I can also help with scrapbooking or gift packaging idea
