Hello! On Monday evening I took part in an online Craft & Chat session for Stampin’ Up! UK & Ireland demonstrators. It was a mystery crafting event, where we were given sizes of card and paper to cut in advance but that was all. I loved the session and here’s the Earthen Elegance fun fold card I made during it…
What made the online session even better is that my Stampin’ Up! team leader invited me round to her house, so we could craft and chat with each other in person, as well as with everyone on zoom. And she provided delicious home made soup and yummy sandwiches – what a treat!
When people ask me what I love most about being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, I always say it’s the people. I have met some amazing crafty friends that I would never have encountered, if it hadn’t been for Stampin’ Up!
Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely adore the products and the way they coordinate perfectly. And of course, I love the discount I get on the products as a demonstrator. Those benefits go without saying. But the best thing for me, is the community and Monday night was a perfect example of that.
I am really looking forward to the February event for UK and Irish demonstrators now too.

Ok, let’s get back to Monday evening’s card. As I mentioned earlier, it’s a fun fold so here’s how it opens…
Isn’t that a cute fold? I’ll give you the measurements we were given my Helen Slimm, our Demonstrator Development Manager.
I hope you like this Earthen Elegance fun fold card and will give it a try too. Of course you can use any designer series paper and card colours you like. There were so many gorgeous versions shown at the end of our zoom session on Monday.
