Why I Love Being a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator

I joined Stampin’ Up! back in May 2008, and it has given me so much more than beautiful stamps, paper and ink.

Over the years, I’ve made wonderful friends, enjoyed creative events and retreats, learned new techniques and shared my love of papercrafting with so many people.

One of the things I love most is that you can make the demonstrator opportunity work for you. Some people join because they love the discount on their crafting supplies, while others enjoy sharing their creativity with friends, building a team or growing a business.

There’s no need to have everything figured out before you begin. You can start by enjoying the products and discovering what being a demonstrator means to you.

Ready to Join My Team?

Remember, the promotion is only available from 6–31 October 2026, so don’t miss out on the extra $95 in Stampin’ Rewards!

Floral Promenade Kit

The Floral Promenade Kit is a beautiful way to create floral handmade cards, and I recently featured it during my Friday Facebook Live.

What made this project extra fun was seeing how many cards I could create by using the original kit. The kit was designed to make 8 cards, with 4 each of 2 designs, but I managed to create 12 cards in total!

I love finding ways to get more from my crafting supplies, and this was a great opportunity to mix the kit with some of my favourite Stampin’ Up! products.

I’ve uploaded my Facebook Live replay to YouTube so you can watch the process and see how I created these cards.

In the video, I share the cards I made and show how I used additional cardstock, ink, stamps and dies to extend the original kit. Look at all those beautiful floral cards! I love the combination of the pretty flower designs, the neutral kraft-style backgrounds and the bold sentiments.

The original kit provides a wonderful starting point, but by adding a few extra supplies, I was able to create more variety in the layouts and make 12 cards instead of the 8 included in the kit.

Behind the Scenes of the June ProCRAFTinators Retreat

People often see the finished retreat, but there’s a lot of preparation that happens behind the scenes before attendees arrive.

From planning projects and organising supplies to creating welcome gifts and personalised boxes, every detail is designed to help attendees enjoy a fun and relaxing crafting weekend.

Preparing the welcome gifts is always one of my favourite jobs. It’s a chance to add a personal touch and show appreciation for everyone who has chosen to spend their weekend crafting with us.

The June ProCRAFTinators Retreat was filled with creativity, laughter and wonderful memories, and I’m already looking forward to the next one.

Handmade Packaging Ideas for Retreat Gifts

I love finding simple ways to elevate everyday gifts with Handmade Packaging Ideas for Retreat Gifts.

For our June ProCRAFTinators Retreat, I used several Stampin’ Up! products to decorate practical gifts and transform them into something a little more special.

The hand warmers were decorated using the Simply Leaves Bundle, while the chocolate packs featured the Exciting Times Bundle.

These projects are a great reminder that you don’t need elaborate packaging to create a memorable gift. A simple stamped tag, wrap or embellishment can completely transform a store-bought item.

Exploring Nature

I recently shared the Exploring Nature Scrapbooking Workshop Kit during my Facebook Live on Friday, 19 June, and it reminded me why I love Stampin’ Up! workshop kits so much.

As someone who enjoys preserving memories but doesn’t always have hours to spend designing layouts from scratch, these workshop kits make scrapbooking so much easier. Everything is designed to coordinate beautifully, allowing me to focus on what matters most – documenting the stories and photos that I want to remember.

The nature-inspired colours and imagery in this collection make it perfect for outdoor adventures, family memories, holidays, walks in nature, camping trips and everyday moments worth preserving.


Why I Love the Scrapbooking Workshop Kits

One of the biggest challenges with scrapbooking can be deciding where to start. Choosing papers, colours, embellishments and layout designs can sometimes feel overwhelming.

That’s why I love workshop kits.

The planning has already been done for you, with coordinated products and layout designs that work together beautifully. This means I can spend less time designing and more time actually getting my photos onto pages.

For me, that means more completed albums and more memories preserved.

Join me as I walk through the kit and share my thoughts on creating scrapbook layouts with this beautiful collection.

Perfect for Memory Keeping

Whether you’re new to scrapbooking or have been memory keeping for years, workshop kits provide a fantastic starting point.

They’re ideal for:

  • Family photos
  • Holiday memories
  • Outdoor adventures
  • Everyday moments
  • Quick and easy scrapbooking sessions

I particularly enjoyed the natural feel of this collection and how easy it was to create coordinated layouts without needing to spend hours planning.

If you’ve been thinking about getting back into scrapbooking, or you’re looking for a simple way to document your memories, workshop kits are a wonderful option.

Happy crafting,

Sharon

Cosy Retreat Gifts for a Winter Crafting Weekend

Since our June retreat was held during winter, I wanted to include a few Cosy Retreat Gifts for a Winter Crafting Weekend to help everyone settle in for a relaxing crafting weekend.

The fluffy socks were wrapped using the Simply Leaves Bundle and paired beautifully with a decorated hot chocolate pack featuring the Lily of the Valley Stamp Set.

These little touches don’t take long to create but add something special to the retreat experience.

One of my goals is always to create an environment where attendees can relax, craft and enjoy spending time with fellow members of our crafting community.
