Happy 1st Birthday, Stampin’ Addicts!

A toast to Stampin Addicts--long may we stamp with her!

Today, I’d like to raise a toast to Stampin’ Addicts.

In just one year, a small group of avid Stampin’ Up fans has grown into a thriving community that welcomes SU lovers from around the globe. How’d that happen so quickly?

Well, the growing gallery features members’ creations made with SU’s latest stamp sets, and those ‘golden oldies’, too–I love seeing all the styles that can be achieved with what’s already in my craft room.

And SA offers a mix of weekly challenges that help me stretch my creativity and jump start my stampin’ mojo.

But mainly, it’s just a bunch of friendly people looking to use their talent to brighten the lives of those they care about. In today’s world, that’s an oasis.

Plus they laugh at my jokes, God bless ‘em.

So here’s to you, Stampin’ Addicts, and to all those who love her: may your ink pads be juicy, your heat tool run hot and your paper snips always be easy to find on your craft desk.

And may the SA community continue to bloom!
