The beginning!

Ok, I am jumping on the blog bandwagon! We'll see how well I manage to keep up with it but I thought I would give it a try. Now that I am on the design team for FireCracker Designs by Pamela (Check out the site HERE), I should be having a lot more projects to share on a regular basis, plus news from Pam, tutorials, etc.

The DT appointment with FCD is my first ever, although I have been toying with the idea of applying for such things for awhile now. I am hoping to send some packages in to some papercrafting magazines yet this year as well, and maybe even try for another DT spot! So wish me luck and send inspiring ideas my way!

Of course I am still a hobby demo with Stampin' Up! too, and I plan to continue that as long as I can make my minimums. I just recently found out that my upline is currently in "pending" and will become inactive at the end of September (with no plans to reactivate). My second level has long since dropped and my third level lives a couple of hours away. So suffice to say, I'm on my own in that area! As much as I'd love to say that it has been a great "business" for me, it wouldn't be true. I do love many of the SU products and will continue to use them, but at this point I will be happy just to remain an "active" demo (so ladies, send me your orders, ok?!).

So, lots of things going on on the stamping front. I feel like it will be easier to manage all this info on a blog instead of having it scattered all over my hard drive files, e-mail inbox, and stamp room like it is now (again, we shall see!). Instead of clogging up everyone's inbox with project art and information, then having to go back and find past e-mails so I don't have to retype card instructions 10 times, I'll just post the info here and viola!

Sounds reasonable I hope! Whatcha think?
