My Mission: Building Confidence in Your Creativity

Whether you’re an empty nester or a busy crafter, I know the world of stamps, folds, techniques, and tools can feel overwhelming. That’s where I come in! I love teaching step-by-step techniques that help you craft beautiful cards you’re proud to share.

What I Offer: Learning Made Simple and Fun

One of my favorite ways to connect with you is through Mystery Stamping, a fun, interactive card-making experience where I guide you with clues to create a card. It’s an excellent way to spark creativity with supplies you already own and meet like-minded crafters in our amazing Mystery Stamping community!

Want to level up your skills? Check out my Card Making Techniques . I share tips and tricks that transform simple supplies into stunning designs—even using items from around the house!

How It All Began

I started crafting over 28 years ago, staring at blank paper without a clue where to start (and no internet for ideas!). Fast forward to today, and I’ve dedicated my career to helping others avoid that same frustration. Whether it’s through my blog, my weekly newsletter, or my YouTube channel, my goal is to spark your creativity and give you the confidence to bring your ideas to life.

Joining My Team: Stamping Friends Forever

As a longtime Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, I lead a supportive team called Stamping Friends Forever, where we embrace every type of crafter—from hobbyists who love the discounts to those running their own creative businesses. Not ready to sell? That’s okay! My team is about fun, learning, and celebrating your creativity at any level.

A Little About Me

I’ve been married to my husband, Mark, for 46 years, and we’re blessed with five wonderful children and 14 amazing grandchildren. We call New Braunfels, Texas, home, but no matter where you are in the U.S., I’m here to support your crafting journey.
