Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team

So excited to be part of the Artisan Design Team for Stampin' Up! in 2025!

I joined Stampin’ Up! in 2024 and have appreciated the warm welcome given to former Close To My Heart™ Makers. I love creating layouts, cards, mini albums, and off-the-page projects, and find joy in sharing my work and inspiring others.

My main focus is scrapbooking, a passion I attribute to my grandmothers, who kept daily diaries. While I may not have their consistency, scrapbooking allows me to curate and document life’s moments pictorially.

I also value the long-term friendships that regular craft days and weekend retreats have given me—which is another one of our hobby’s benefits.

Outside of crafting, I teach at a local primary school. I enjoy photography and tasty café experiences, loving walks and weekends at the beach. I need a good espresso to kickstart my day, even when I’m away from home. Instant coffee just doesn’t cut it.

I’m thrilled to be part of the Artisan Design Team for 2025 and can’t wait to share my creativity with you using fantastic Stampin’ Up! products!

The team is from different parts of the world, check out where we all come from:

New Grad

This month I used the 'Sunshine Vibes' bundle to create this layout for the Stampin' Up Artisan Design Team. Using die cuts to create stencils is a favourite way to create backgrounds for my scrapbook layouts. This bundle allowed me to do this and then to back some of the die cuts with in colour DSP. Puffy hearts and fussy cut flowers add dimension. If you live in New Zealand and don't have a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator already and want the supplies I have used, please visit: https://laramoss.stampinup.net and head to the shop to look for: Sunshine Vibes Bundle Mini Alphabet Dies Florals in Bloom DSP

Camping with Jack

Welcome to our Jack Blog Hop! We are going to share with you, items from our Jack Paper Pack with various projects created by talented Close To My Heart Consultants. If you are visiting from Brenda's blog then you are on the right track, if not please head back to visit Carol's blog where this blog hop begins. Jack papers were a bit of a challenge for me, especially after my enjoyment of working with Prickly Pear last month. Luckily I enjoy a challenge and have one layout, and a process video, to share with you here (there are some other pages and projects shared previously on my blog - after the blog hop you can pop back and check them out). The challenge here was using 3 photos. I have become adept at choosing just one photo that tells a story and adding journaling so I don't always need lots of photos on a page or two. But as this was about an event, there were more photos to place. I made use of the Camping Life stamps for embellishing and addi...
