I’m Lois, and I’ve been a member of the Senior Design Team
for Mark’s Finest Papers, a Heinrich Company, since Day One, back in 2009. Like the founder of Mark’s Finest Papers, I
live in Florida
– although like most Floridians, I was born somewhere else. I am a transplant from rural Bucks
County , Pennsylvania , having moved
to Florida in
1968. I’m a widow; my husband of 41
years died in 2003. I have three grown
children and eight grandchildren – ranging in age from 21 down to 3.
I got into this addictive hobby like many
others – I attended a Stampin’ Up workshop at my best friend’s house, knowing
absolutely nothing about rubber stamping.
I felt rather overwhelmed by the scope of what the demonstrator showed
us, so I bought just one stamp set, a couple of ink pads and some paper. And, as happens to all of us, the rest is
history!!! That was in 2005. Here I am seven years later, completely absorbed
into the craft of stamps and ink! I do
enjoy learning new techniques.

Hi Lois - this is a nice write up of yourself. Sorry to read your hubby passed away - I am sure you miss him very much. Glad you are in a nice weather state. You create great tutorials - enjoy your crafting week! Gail
So funny how many of us got hooked on Stampin through Stampin Up parties. I only went to help out a friend, and whoops...I have been a stamper ever since! I'm the only one of my friends who stamps...even the person who had the stamp party gave it up! I love the challenges on Speedy TV because they keep me creative and trying new techniques and designs.
