I look forward to sharing my love of stamping with you and inspiring your creativity.
My 2025 Christmas cards are officially done! The Pōhutukawa—often called the New Zealand Christmas Tree—was the perfect inspiration for these festive cards, created using the Branching Out Bundle and Jolly Delivery stamp set.
I love when a workshop project lines up perfectly with old family memories—like this layout from the Keeping Traditions Scrapbooking Workshop Kit, filled with photos from our extended family’s Boxing Day brunch way back in 2003. A little slice of history preserved on paper.

Look what we got up to on Saturday! This is one of the layouts we created at the November Scrapbooking Escape using the fabulous Keeping Traditions Scrapbooking Workshop Kit. It’s one of the three double-page layouts we completed on the day, and it was such a fun one to put together.
Add some sparkle to your festive crafting with this beautiful and fun Christmas shaker card! I recently shared a red-and-green version using the Pine Tree Trimmings Bundle and Tree Shaker Domes, and today’s project features the same layout—this time in rich, regal Pretty Peacock with touches of black, white, and gold. It’s such a striking colour combination!
I am a stay-at-home mum with three adult children and a wonderfully supportive husband. My creative timeout is stamping, creating and giving handmade greeting cards. When I was introduced to Stampin' Up!® over fifteen years ago, I quickly fell in love with their high-quality, coordinating products and loved creating with them. Soon after, I became an Independent Stampin' Up!® Demonstrator and discovered that I also enjoy sharing my paper crafting knowledge with others and inspiring their stamping creativity.
I would love to hear from you. Don't hesitate to contact me if you want the latest catalogue, need papercraft supplies (we ship nationwide), wish to attend an upcoming event, or want information about joining my team.

Need a special gift for Christmas or a milestone occasion? A personalised mini album is always a winner! This elegant pocket album was created using the beautiful Peaceful Garden Designer Series Paper, Misty Moonlight & Silver Edged Ribbon, and the Branching Out Bundle, inspired by a design by Lara Moss.
The Creativity Abounds Design Team is excited to bring you another inspiring collection of tutorials! Each month, our international group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators joins forces to create a themed bundle, and for November, we’re diving into Holiday Gift Packaging & Decorations!
Have you tried making a shaker card? They’re such a fun, interactive way to add a little extra sparkle to your Christmas crafting! Today I’m sharing a simple and festive design using the Pine Tree Trimmings Bundle paired with the Tree Shaker Domes.
The Modern Christmas Suite is absolutely stunning with its black, white, and gold theme — perfect for clean, contemporary Christmas cards. Its neutral palette also gives you freedom to introduce your favourite colour. For this card, I chose Fresh Freesia cardstock to add a soft pop of colour.
