So, I don’t know if I’ve said it enough on this blog, but I LOVE being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator. Since joining SU, I’ve met so many smart, creative, and friendly people, become better at my crafting, become so much more inspired, had more excuses to hang out with my friends and craft and share [...]

Craft Fair #2 – Jantzen Beach, Portland, OR
Last winter, I set up a table at my first ever craft and vendor fair. It was a holiday fair and I spent a lot of time preparing craft items I thought would be great for the holidays.
