Welcome to the Travelingstamper's Blog!
I’m so happy you’re here! My name is Gwen, also known as the Travelingstamper. I’m passionate about sharing the joy of stamping and card-making with others. Whether you’re completely new to crafting or a seasoned pro, I’m here to make creativity easy, fun, and something anyone can enjoy.
I offer online card classes you can join from anywhere, with occasional in-person events in Cedar Falls, IA. I focus on helping you create quick and easy cards using cardstock, ink, ribbon, and embellishments. I aim to show you how simple and fun it can be to make something beautiful, even if you’re short on time or supplies.
Feel free to browse my website for inspiration, tutorials, and all the amazing Stampin’ Up! products that make card-making a breeze. Don’t forget to sign up for my newsletter to receive exclusive project ideas, upcoming class schedules, and special promotions delivered to your inbox.
