01.23.21…..Happy Friday, everyone! Today, I’m thrilled to share my first monthly showcase projects for the Stampin’ Up! 2021 Artisan Design Team! For this month’s projects, I was asked to use the Pretty Perennials Bundle (from the January – June Mini Catalog), along with the Oh So Ombre Designer Series Paper and the Flower & Field Designer Series Paper (both from the Sale-A-Bration Catalog).

There have also been a few changes to the way the Artisan Design Team is sharing projects this year. The team has been divided into three groups, and each group is assigned a different collection of products to create with. This means an even greater variety of projects and inspiration. And…Instead of the monthly blog hops, the team will have a greater presence on the Stampin’ Up! Corporate Facebook Page and their Instagram account as well.

Be sure check out the rest of the team’s fabulous creations on the Stampin’ Up! Corporate Facebook Page at : https://www.facebook.com/stampinup

11.08.2020…..Hi everyone!  Yesterday, approximately 10,000 Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world, wrapped up the three-day Onstage at Home (#onstageathome) virtual event! And….what a fabulous event it was!!! It was jam-packed with stamping presentations, demonstrator recognitions, and break-out classes full of tips, tricks, and lots of info to help us “better our best” with our Stampin’ Up! businesses!

With all of that being said, this is a much different post than my usual weekly posts, but it’s beyond exciting, to say the least! I was selected to be one of the 21 members of the 2021 Stampin’ Up Artisan Design Team, from around the world!

Above is the gorgeous, personalized memento box that all the Artisan Design Team Members were awarded…which included a Welcome letter, a beautiful engraved bracelet from Tiffany’s, and a personalized Artisan Design Team stamp!

Back on the evening of September 28th , I received a call from Natalie Wallick White (Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Development Manager for the West Coast Region), letting me know that I had been selected for the Stampin’ Up! 2021 Artisan Design Team! Along with my happy tears and speechlessness, I was sooooooo ecstatic!!!  However…..I had to keep it a secret until it was announced at Onstage at Home (…that was the hard part!). I feel so blessed to be a member of Stampin’ Up! 2020 Artisan Design team, and…to be selected for the second year in a row is beyond what I could ever imagine!!!

Starting in January 2021, I will be participating with the rest of the Stampin’ Up! 2021 Artisan Design Team members, via the Stampin’ Up! corporate Facebook page and Instagram as well, and…..we will be showcasing projects created with the all wonderful products from our Stampin’ Up catalogs!  

With all of that being said, I am incredibly humbled and honored to be a part of this amazingly talented team, and am looking forward to sharing this journey with all of you during the coming year.  Thank you to Stampin’ Up! for giving me such an absolutely amazing opportunity!!!  I’m over the moon!

Wishing you creativity always,
