My Mother and I at the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island, Michigan, circa 1977
Hi there! Karen Bryan here.
As a Stampin' Up demonstrator my mission is to provide crafting inspiration and education using Stampin' Up's high quality products.
My goal is to reach out to new and experienced crafters who may not have access to local paper crafting gatherings and classes. Whether you are unable to attend due to location, disability, time constraints, etc. You too can find a crafting home here via my blog and videos, learning and gaining inspiration. The best part about this crafting home is that it's non-invasive. Thanks to technology, Stamp Your Way is everywhere you want to be.
My love for crafting began as a preschooler, when my mother gave me a set of sewing cards. From coloring to crochet, I love to create! Paper crafting and stamping provides me yet another outlet for creation.
Many times throughout my life, I've seen various crafting projects and thought to myself, "That looks hard. I can't do that." My mother has always said, "If you truly enjoy something, ultimately you are bound to be good at it." She is right! I've learned that each time I successfully completed a new craft project, the confidence I gained and skills learned has allowed me to attempt more and more projects.
Therefore, if you are truly interested in crafting and enjoy making things, then you too can create the projects demonstrated on my blog. Chances are if you are reading my blog, you're already interested and have the desire to make stuff. So stop thinking you can't, and start building the confidence that you can!
If you are already a veteran crafter and know the joys of crafting, my goal is to provide you with new inspiration and new challenges.
New crafter or a veteran, I want you to have fun learning new things. My inspirational and tutorial videos and posts, will always be available free of charge. However, your support of my business through the purchase of Stampin' Up products via my website will allow me to continue providing such information. If you enjoy my posts and videos and wish to see more, remember to subscribe to my blog and YouTube channel, and purchase your Stampin' Up products via my website: http://stampyourway.stampinup.net.
