Karen, a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, enjoys sharing her love for crafts while “decompressing” with friends. Granby’s Stampin’ Queen has been a demonstrator for over six years and is nationally recognized by some of her shared ideas. “I love the creativity stamping allows me, even though I am not an artist”, Karen says.  

 After wanting to “buy everything” in the Stampin’ Up! Catalog, Karen found herself gathering a collection of stamps and craft materials equipping her to teach others.  

 “Being creative every day, having to offer fresh project ideas and encouraging my customers and friends can be very rewarding. The social aspect of paper crafting is the most fun – stamping with friends is just the best!” Karen holds regular classes and workshops for community members interested in paper crafting. “When you welcome others who enjoy the same hobby as yourself, you get to meet wonderful new people.” “For me, helping someone create that perfect project for a special occasion – whether it’s a birthday, wedding, or anniversary – is the best feeling in the world.”
