To tell you a little about how my journey with Stampin’ Up! came about…

I had just had bilateral TOTAL knee replacements just six months prior to this and was struggling in my recuperation. The new knees would randomly swell if I was up for very long; as a result of all the sitting I developed sciatica which is extremely PAINFUL! 

 

A friend called my husband to help her husband bury their pet that had just passed away. I went with him to be with her (Tonya). Tonya had been posting pictures of all the pretty cards she was making and I was fascinated. I wanted to learn how to do that. 

 

Sooo while the guys were outside taking care of business (which was a really sad), I was inside taking my friend’s mind off of it by having her show me all her goodies. 

 

There just happened to be a promotion going on at the time where I could get a complete set of Ink Pads if I purchased the Starter Kit; so I went home, made a list, and purchased that Starter Kit!

 

I started posting pictures of all the fun I was having at home right by myself making beautiful cards and before you know it people wanted to come “Play” with me. 

 

What I didn’t tell you is that I was struggling with depression due to how long this active person was taking to get back on her feet. I was lonely from staying home all the time. It was just what the doctor ordered! 

 

When I joined I had ABSOLUTELY no intention of ever holding a card class, having a YouTube channel, holding Bunco Craft Parties, having a website, etc. NO ONE ever pressured me to do anything other than to enjoy myself. 

 

I gained so many new friends and found a side of me I hadn’t experienced in a long time. I have loved every minute of this ride. 

 

I encourage you to plug in to a class, get creative and maybe even buy a starter kit to get the discount (I can help you with that – teehee). It has been a wonderful journey for me and I can’t wait to see what lies ahead!
