April 2024 was an exciting month for me. After many years of looking and wondering, I finally joined the Stampin’ Up family as a demonstrator.
Why? I have always been creative and in the past I have tried scrapbooking, card making, sewing, cross-stitch and machine crafting with a Cricut. However, each time to the annoyance of those around me I have tried it for a few months and then lost interest and wanted to try something new.
What’s changed? There have been a number of changes in my working life this past year and I no longer teach but now work from home most of the week. Instead of being the teacher I became the student as I joined the office training school for six months.
Wow, what learning curve that was. It was difficult going from being the person who others came to for knowledge to starting from scratch, learning everything new.
I have missed teaching others, but I am hopeful this new chapter will let me inspire others and create some amazing crafting moments teaching and learning along with some new students who share a love of crafting.
