I took my first rubber stamping/card making class 18 years ago.  I remember sitting there, amazed at how a simple rubber stamp and a paper cutter could transform plain cardstock into something beautiful. I left that class with a handful of handmade cards and a heart full of excitement—and I couldn’t wait to go back!

Soon, waiting a whole month between classes felt impossible. I wanted to create all the time, so I joined Stampin' Up! and discovered an even deeper joy: sharing this craft with others. Since then, I’ve helped countless people find that same delight and joy in crafting—whether it’s the thrill of learning a new technique, the satisfaction of sending a card that makes someone smile, or the simple pleasure of sitting down with pretty paper and good company.

For me, crafting is about connection. We connect with our creativity, with each other, and with the people who receive our handmade cards. It’s contagious joy—the kind you want to share.

That’s why I created Mail Something Pretty. Here, you'll find tutorials, videos, blog posts, and classes designed to make card making fun and easy. No secrets, no perfection required—just plenty of ideas, laughter, and a whole lot of paper crafting joy.
