I can’t believe that 2017 has come to a close and it’s time for a new year already. These past 12 months have been nothing short of amazing for me as a Stampin’ Up! independent demonstrator. What have I accomplished in this year that seems to have flown by?

Well in March I took a leap of faith and signed up with Stampin’ Up! under my mom. I’ve been crafting for so long and even went to school to get my BFA so you could say creativity runs strong in these veins. That’s what started this journey and I can’t believe my first year of Stampin’ Up! is under my belt.

In June my boyfriend and I officially moved into our first home together! It was a rollercoaster ride finding it but now I have the most amazing home and two wonderful cats we rescued in July. Not to mention my sanctuary of a craft room that I can get creative in!

Over the summer I had customers attend classes and get their feet wet in the crafting world. One of my goals for 2018 is to hold more classes and events for anyone who loves to get down and crafty. I love teaching and sharing my love of stamping with anyone who is willing to pick up a stamp set and some ink!

My biggest thrill was getting on my first ever airplane (somehow I managed to avoid it for 23 years) and heading across the country for OnStage Live 2017! Spending time with all the wonderful demonstrators in Salt Lake City and meeting so many amazing men and women was an experience I don’t think I will ever forget. I left Utah with a bunch of ideas floating around in my head and big plans for the year ahead of us.

I knew I wanted to start this year off with a bang and so I’ve launched my website! Here is where I will be posting class ideas, cards I’ve made, and tutorials on a range of topics. I can’t wait to get posting and talking with you guys! I hope this past year treated y’all well and I’m sending good vibes that 2018 is nothing short of wonderful for you!

xoxo,
Sarah
