How did you get over your shyness? You seem so comfortable presenting. I know you said you practiced in front of your husband, did that help? Did you make a script or memorize what you wanted to say. I’m shy speaking in front of groups, I’m much better one on one. I do push myself to get out of my comfort zone but thought you might have some tips. Congratulations on both of your anniversaries and for reaching your 4 million!! So amazing!
It took YEARS and I think it was just a matter of #1, being comfortable with the content I'm talking about, and #2 practice practice practice in front of people. I appreciate your kindness.. thank you!!
You are wonderful- you have contributed so much. Didn’t realize you lived in the Bay Area. Thx for sharing . I am from Santa Rosa - demonstrator since 2020.
Congratulations 🎈🎉🎊 on your 29th Anniversary with Stampin Up. WOW, that’s awesome. I have gotten many great tips from you over the last couple of years. I a newbie. So thank you!!!❤❤ And Happy Anniversary of being married to, I’m sure a wonderful man. Congratulations 🎈🎉 😊❤
Congratulations on your 29 years with Stampin' Up! That's an awesome achievement! I've followed you for many years & have learned to so much from you! And...I continue to learn from you. Thank you for your willingness to share your creativity with all of us at no charge. You are very much appreciated!!!
I just watched your replay and it was so much fun listening to you about Stampin up as I have only joined about 6 years ago, my twin sister was the one that got me interested in it! I love to sew and sew birthday gifts for my grandchildren and then send them an active fun fold card to go with there gifts! I really enjoy watching your videos and bought the Les Shoppe 12X12 dsp from watching your fun fold card and have been having a great time using it! Thanks for all you do! Congratulations on your Anniversaries! Joan
I have “clear” stamps from several different companies. I have found Stampin’Up! has the best quality of photopolymer stamps. I won’t even look at any others😊. Congratulations on your anniversaries and thank you so much for sharing everything you share. I have learned so much from you🥰
I earnestly tried to be a quilter but alas, I could not sew a straight seam no matter what I did! I did Tole painting and both cross stitch and counted cross stitch and embroidery. I do sew but quilting was just beyond me. Stamping was instant gratification in comparison. I’ll never give it up😊
Hello Patty- Happy Stampin Anniversary to you. Happy Anniversary to you & your husband. What an interesting story you have had with your work life, etc. I did not know that Stampin Up carried other companies products when they started up. That is an interesting story. It is a beautiful story of your mother getting you involved in a store doing the stamping. Thanks for sharing your history with us. God Bless you & have a great weekend Patty. 👏👏👏👏💕🌻
Thank you so much for your wonderful, informational videos. Love your calm teaching style. I enjoy all your videos, but especially the videos chatting about your journey & family.
What a wonderful video to listen to-in replay! Thank you. Revisiting million dollar sets would be awesome. Maybe be offered photopolymer or with dies. ❤️
Thank you for sharing your 29-year journey with Stampin Up! Delightful presentation and very enjoyable to listen to. Nice memories of the early years; I've been a Stampin Up! customer for years and remember going to either a party or to the demonstrator's house where all the orders were hand-written out on huge carbon order sheets and then mailed off. Progress is great! Thanks again for this plus all your inspirational videos - love them!
Happy Anniversary! and Happy Stampaversery! I loved listening to your journey into Stampin UP! I started stamping with Close to My heart in the late 80's and then started scrapbooking with Creative Memories and even became and demonstrator with them. I have the old wooden block stamps sets and I think the oldest one with Stampin Up! is from 1993. I too am about 20 years behind in my "family" scrapbooks because I got sidetracked with card making and that is what I do most of the time. I am not crafty nor creative so I love watching you because you are a great teacher and now I know why! It runs in your family to be creative. You carry the banner well. Thank you for all you do. Wish I could have known you before I signed up I would love to be in your downline. LOL! Thank you so much for sharing your journey.
Happy Anniversary! We have so much in common. I am a CA girl too. I did the Rose Bowl floats too, Rand McNally float with Neff High School in La Mirada. My dad was also an engineer and we lived in Dublin. We are even the same age. I have 3 sons. I do love your videos. I have been with Stampin Up since 1998. Sadly lost all my old stamps in the Camp Fire. Thanks for sharing your love of stamping.
I was afraid that I would have to give up cross stitch a few years ago until I let technology help me out. With every new project, I take pictures of the pattern with my iPad. That way, I can enlarge the portion that I’m working on and can continue to cross stitch!
I was at convention when you got that award. You were my Upline. I was one of those people who stayed in for 4 or 5 years. i was under Shauna C. So fun to hear your story.
