Renee VanStralen
Renee’s Bio
I’m married to my best friend and together we have 5 children (3 boys, 2 girls; ages 8-1). My hubby, Paul, is a pastor and he’s out a lot of evenings so I needed something to help occupy my time (not that my life is dull by any means!). I went to a Stampin’ Up! party at my mom’s home in 2006 and was hooked! Stamping is certainly something I love to do!! I enjoy so many different challenges as I have learned and grown so much as a stamper.

Cindy’s Bio
I live in Quebec City, Canada, and I’ve been a Stampin’ Up! demo for 3½ years now. I signed up the very day SU! entered the Quebec market, planning to be my own very best customer. Things took off soon afterwards, though, and I am now at the head of a team of 30 wonderful demos called “Des dames en art” (Queens of Art).
SU! has been an amazing addition to my life. It has allowed me to meet people who share my passion, to finance my hobby, to develop my leadership skills and to travel! My blog has also allowed to share my work to a wider audience and to meet new stamping friends from all around the world.

Kirsty’s Bio
My name is Kirsty Brown. I am 31 years of age with 4 beautiful children and of course a loving and a supporting (you have to be with my craft addiction LOL) Husband. We live in sunny Queensland, in a farming community, called Gatton. I started my paper craft addiction close to 7 years ago with scrapbooking. To this day I still scrapbook, I love it. I love how you can make some simple photos look absolutely stunning with a few papers and a couple embellishments and not to mention preserving your most precious memories. I was introduced to Stampin’ Up! in January 2008 by a dear close friend, Theresa. It didnt take too long for me to become a demonstrator myself by August 2008 and I haven’t looked back. I love to show people the magical things you can do with paper, ink and a little bit of rubber. Also to show them how simple it is to hand craft acard and gift for that someone special. I hope I can inspire you to create to your hearts content.
