Hi,
My name is Cath and I'm a papercraft addict!
I'm also happy to admit it, and love to tell anyone and everyone about the cards I make and the scrapbooks I put together, and the gift boxes and treat boxes that come out of my craft room and the home decor pieces created from cardstock, paper and stamps that I make for myself, my family and my friends.
I'm also happy to tell you that never in my wildest dreams did I ever think that I would become a Stampin' Up demonstrator, but I have, and I'm loving it.
Why did I choose to become a Stampin' Up demonstrator, especially when it seems to be the complete opposite of what I am (an absolute Cheapskate)?
One second-hand $5 stamp pad was all it took to convince me that Stampin' Up products were exactly what I wanted and needed to use in my craft room for card making and scrapbooking. I'm still using that $5 second-hand Mossy Meadow stamp pad too, 8 years later.
I figured if I could get 8 years out of a second-hand stamp pad, it is a quality product, and I've carried that over to the other Stampin' Up products I've used as a customer since then.
Cardstock in a range of colours that co-ordinate with stamp pads that co-ordinate with Designer Series Papers that co-ordinate with embellishments. Tools that are useful and actually work. No real gimmicks, just quality products that I am confident using for all my papercrafting projects.
So I took the plunge and became a demonstrator, and I am loving it.
If you'd like to know more about why I took this step, and if it would benefit you, just ask me, I'm happy to share the story of the $5 stamp pad and how it changed my mind so much I became a Stampin' Up demonstrator.
