Have you ever had an event happen in your life that seemed small, but it transformed your life?
10 years ago today, I joined the Stampin Up family. I could never have dreamed where this would path would lead. I only did it for the discount lol! Over the past decade, this shy girl has became a public speaker and SU has brought me on the most amazing adventures around the world (Fiji, Alaska, Hawaii, Panama Canal….just a few).
More highlights over the years were hosting my own TV Series, The Stamp With Tami Show, and of course learning to make a video and post it on YouTube!
The friendships I’ve made through stamping, I cherish dearly. You have brought us through some of the hardest hard times of my life, and celebrated a few of the biggest.
As a single mother, income my job brings supports my kids & I. It has saved my family home of 30+ years. Today marks 1 year that I’ve owned it myself.
You never know what tomorrow will bring, or when something seemingly small will change your life forever. 2 weeks ago, I hit a milestone selling $1Million in personal sales in my SU career. Shelli Gardner, CEO & Co-Founder of Stampin Up, called me personally, sent amazing flowers and a card. The next day, Shelli was in a terrible accident. Her life was also changed forever, and now she is an inspiration in new ways as she shares her struggles to walk again. (You can read Shelli’s incredible story, and post her a personal note on her blog here >).
PICTURES:
The pictures above are of my very first convention in Orlando, FL (2004) and meeting Shelli for the very first time. The next was Shelli and I on stage 7 years later – #1 Demonstrator of the Year.
While I’m doing a “then and now”, I have to share the best part of all. My boys! Because of Stampin Up, I’m able to work from home, and be here for them. They are the biggest part of why I do what I do, and I love them so much! Here they are a few weeks after I joined SU in their Halloween Costumes. Look at how little they were!! The next picture was taken a few weeks ago at Scout Camp, my oldest is applying for his Eagle Scout this week! I’m so proud:)
