Curtain Call Call Reveal - Take 3


We are proud to announce our newest Curtain Call Crew member!




Sarah Gough

Hi there! I live in gorgeous Wellington, New Zealand - not next door to a hobbit in case you were wondering! I'm a SAHM (stamp at home mama) to a gorgeous 18 month old, Jackson and I'm married to my handsome high school sweetheart Shanan.

I started my stamping journey as a SU demo but quickly found the wide world of spectacular stamping supplies! I've been fortunate to design for some of my favourite companies and I'm THRILLED to be joining this amazing group of stampers at the Curtain Call Challenge! I'm looking forward to being inspired by them!


We are beyond excited that Sarah is joining us on stage!  
Get ready for a new challenge and a new sponsor on January 15th!

Curtain Call Crew Reveal - Take 2


We are proud to announce our newest Curtain Call Crew member!



Amy Tsuruta

Hi! I am a Canadian living in the lovely state of Washington. I'm a mom to 2 fabulous kids and I'm engaged to the most wonderful man! He fully supports my crafting and since his hobby is building an airplane, buying a $6 pad of paper is nothing compared to his shopping list!

I've been crafting forever but signed up for a scapbooking company in 2001, things changed quickly when I was introduced to Stampin' Up in 2002.   I started a gallery at Splitcoast Stampers in 2005 and my blog in 2007.  I'm a challenge junkie that loves to use colors & patterns in my projects. So excited to be part of Curtain Call!


We are over the moon that Amy is joining us on stage!

We are proud to announce our newest Curtain Call Crew member!





 Amy Kolling

Hi everyone!  My name is Amy Kolling.  I am a full-time dialysis RN, wife, and mom.  We stay pretty busy with kids activites but I wouldn't change it for anything!  Cardmaking is my hobby and most often it's done after the kids are in bed for the night......yes, I'm a late night crafter most of the time!  When I received the invite from Stacey, the answer was an immediate YES!  I've been a fan of this challenge from the beginning and always wondered how I could join this group!  I am so excited to be joining the Curtain Call Challenge! 


We are thrilled that Amy is joining us on stage!

We have an awesome new sponsor, Linnie Blooms, who supplied each of the Smitten designers with a package of Faber-Castell Gelatos!  These amazing little "chapstick"-like watercolors bring about the most beautiful colors!
