I am a "stamp-a-holic"...and this is my story.

I'm a stamper at heart.

My story starts out like a lot of others do. I said I'd never stamp..I had bought some scrapbooking things and never really used them, so I didn't want to have the same thing happen with stamping things.

Well, in '04 came a military move that took me to a place where it would all begin. I made a great friend named Heather, she happened to be a CM consultant & she got me scrapping again.... for a while. Around March of '05 I think it was, she dragged me to an SU party hosted by a friend of hers...and then IT started. My love of stamping.

I don't know what is was about something as simple as putting ink, stamps and paper together to make a card....but for some reason, it made me feel happy. I soon signed up to be a demonstrator because I wanted more stuff and was in desperate need of a discount.

So then, sooner than we expected ('07), another move would come up, one that would bring me to Germany. As you can imagine, in that short 2 years, I had accumulated quite a bit of stuff, including furniture to store it all in. Weight and storage became an issue and I had remembered reading about unmounted stamps on SCS. It was there too, that I learned about The Angel Company. After trying their stamps I was hooked. I totally knew then and there that they were the company for me! Lower minimums, larger discount, better customer specials, AWESOME demonstrators...I was hooked!! But, I will admit....I did something crazy....I left them.

I'd gotten bored with our catalog and didn't really like the new one coming out and for a tiny while I was seeing SU in a whole new light. "Wow!", I thought "why did I leave? this is great!" so for a few short months, I left TAC (gasp) and went back. (Big mistake.) I missed the friendships I had formed on Paper Wings, the FREE Gift With Purchase stamps and the family feel of the company, among other things. So....you guessed it......I went back to TAC....for GOOD!!

So here I am. I'm a TAC Angel again :) Right now, I'm not holding Funshops & I am happy being a "hobby demo". If you want a catalog just holler and I will get one to you...but you won't see me out trying to sell or doing any recruiting.....it's just not where I want to be right now, and luckily, TAC is ok with that and as they say "Our wings come in all sizes" That's why I love them!

I'm in the middle of re-organizing and don't have anything new to show today, but don't worry I've got ideas in my head that will soon appear in paper and ink here. So, for now, I will leave you with this. I made it last year, yes, but it's one of those cards that makes me smile when I see it, because for me, this is what stamping is....following my bliss~ Enjoy!!

Thanks for letting me share MY love of stamping with you~ be true to yourself and follow your bliss!!
