Independent Stampin'Up! Demonstrator!

Hey friends!
I've been a demonstrator with Stampin'Up! since 2011. I'm located in Bozeman, Montana, but have customers all over the country. I have a very fun and active downline called "Big Sky Stamper Stars" and we get together in person and online to share what we love. My blog posts feature what I'm up to recently and I try to share new product information, tips and tricks and creative inspiration. You can shop from this site or find out more information about our products and becoming a demonstrator! Thanks for stopping by!

Out of the Covid Pit and into a new In -Color Year!

 Hi Stampin' Friends!

It's been waaaaay to long since I've blogged and I've missed connecting with you and sharing what I'm up to. My life certainly hasn't been what I expected the past month! In mid March, we took a 2 week getaway to Southern Utah and Arizona to see family, do some exploring with our side-by-side RZR and see some beautiful countryside that didn't look anything like Montana. We had a great trip and I was all set to gear up for a new Annual Catalog coming out and planning a new slate of classes and projects and fun. Then, Covid struck! A few days after getting my first Covid vaccination, I had the misfortune to test positive for Covid, along with my son and husband. What started out as a mild cough quickly degenerated into all the symptoms with nausea hitting me the hardest and longest. I won't bore you with the details but I'm only now crawling out of the fog, 3 weeks later. I'm still profoundly weak and tired but at least I'm functioning and grateful the worst is behind me. My son and husband had an easier time of it so they are doing really well. I think this will be a long haul back to full strength and energy. You have my full understanding and sympathies if you've been hit with Covid!

Meanwhile, life was happening and some exciting things are just on the horizon with Stampin'Up! The new Annual Catalog will launch a full month early this year, starting on May 4th! I've been able to order a few products with my preorder and I'm most excited about the new 2021-2023 In-Colors. I want to share them with you today.  I was able to spend a few minutes in my stamp room last week and try these gorgeous new colors out and made this #simplestamping card:


 I used the "Pretty Perennials" stamp set from the Jan-June Mini Catalog to create this fun card. Happy mail is always a good thing! Now, let me introduce you to the new color line up!

Pale Papaya


Polished Pink


Evening Evergreen


Fresh Freesia 


Soft Succulent


What do you think? I'm already in love with three of them and I think the other two will quickly grow on me! I'm hoping to spend some serious creative stamping time this week with my new colors and new products so look for more inspiration coming your way soon! Don't forget, if you're a demonstrator you can get your hands on these colors now and if you're a customer, May 4th is just around the corner!

Happy Stampin!
