When I asked these 2 fabulous ladies to join in all the YNS fun they thought it would be a good idea to be ‘twin’ guest designers for the month of October! Jen and Susan are great friends and I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know them both over the past few years and they are both super talented and lots of fun!!!
Please help me welcome these fabulous stamping friends to the YNS family… –
Here are a few words from both Jen and Susan along with a few of their amazing YNS creations!
Jen del Muro
Hi! It’s me…Jen del Muro. I am a fan of all things paper crafting and stamping. I started stamping several years ago just as a little hobby. I’m pretty sure you already know how that story turns out, as we have all become masters of procurement in this industry!
I live in North Texas with my husband, daughter and son. We share our home with a couple of loony dogs and a fat black cat. When I am not running around like crazy with any or all of them, I like to find a little peace and quiet in my stamp room. I have been {seriously} stamping and paper crafting for more than 5 years. I design/have designed for several companies and I enjoy getting my work published when I have the time. I love to share my work on my blog,
www.iheart2stamp.com. I also teach Copic and card for my local scrapbook store, Scrapper’s Boutique.
Karen knows that I absolutely **ADORE** all things YNS and I am thrilled to be a guest designer this month! Thank you!
Hi y’all, it’s me, Susan! I’m married to my best friend, Eric and we have three beautiful daughters—Shelbie who is 19 and works for Baylor hospital (she’s left the nest), Lindsie our fifth grader and Audrie our second grader. My mom recently moved in with us after having a stroke and I’m loving the large family atmosphere that a third generation brings to our home. We are all native Texans and we live northeast of Fort Worth in a little suburb called Watauga. I’ve been a stay at home mom for 8 years now, after having been in the retail banking business for 17 years. We have a sweet Puggle (Pug/Beagle) that we rescued a year ago named Sage. (also known as Sagers, Sagerella, and Aunt Sage-emima)
I grew up loving to draw, sew and do crafts of any sort. After Shelbie was born (many moons ago), I decided I wanted to start a scrapbook for her. Fourteen or so scrapbooks later…yes, just like ya’ll, it became an obsession. However, along the way I was introduced to stamping, cardmaking and other papercrafts, so true scrapbooking took a backseat although I still love doing it. I’ve been stamping on a regular basis for about 9 years now and somehow managed to become a part of several design teams here and there and even had a stint on the Dirty Dozen on Splitcoaststampers.com. Currently, I design for The Cat’s Pajamas and Verve. I also work on Saturdays, design layouts and card kits, and teach classes at my favorite local scrapbook store, Scrapper’s Boutique. If ya’ll are local, come visit me there or if not, I’ll see you on my blog, www.susiestampalot.com!
I’m thrilled that Karen has asked me to join Your Next Stamp this month for a little fun. I fell in love with the YNS brand when Fhiona jumped into my heart! I hope ya’ll enjoy what I create for you!
Oooo, so much cuteness from the twins :>)
Super cute cards!
YEAH!!!! So excited to be rubbin’ shoulders with the likes of you two on another team!!
