Sponsor Solo with Amy – STAMPlorations

Sponsor Solo

Hey Coffee Lovers!  It’s Amy here with  another edition of the Sponsor Solo feature!

Today we are spotlighting STAMPlorations!

I’m so excited to have Shery of STAMPlorations with us today:

stamplorationsfamily

Hey there! David and I (Shery) are a husband-and-wife team and we own and manage STAMPlorations™ from our home office in Central California. We have a 2-year-old daughter named Kathryn Corazon, and by the time Amy publishes this sponsor solo, our second daughter, Winter Rainbow, is two days old :o)

I’m an avid paper crafter and I love graphic design, so in June 2013, my husband and I launched our home-based stamp company featuring my designs and illustrations. My designs tend to be artsy, sketchy, and have a graphic/mixed media feel. (I’m a mixed media girl who has fallen in love with card-making.) In June 2014, we began releasing one 5″ by 7″ stamp set every other month and offering it to our premium stamp club subscribers. In January 2015, we introduced ARTplorations, our own line of stencils. In July 2016, we launched CUTplorations, our own line of thin metal dies. In October 2016, we introduced our first coloring book, Color Blooms. A year later, we released our second coloring book, Bloomtangled.

We’re proud to have a team of 40 designers who have collectively produced more than 5,000 projects featuring our stamps, stencils, and dies since January 2014. We also carry stamps designed exclusively for us by Shirley Bampton, Deepti Malik, and Becca Cruger. Recently, we released stencils designed by Sanna Lippert.

Through STAMPlorations, I have been fortunate to get to know many amazing customers and crafters from many parts of the world. I love being able to connect with people who share my interest in and love for anything and everything related to papercrafting and expressing one’s own creativity. Making customers happy is high up on our priority list. And it’s always the highlight of my day whenever a customer emails to let me know her order has arrived and that she is pretty happy with what she has received.

Check out Shery’s gorgeous card she shared during the Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop:

Absolute happiness on a card!  Love those pops of color, don’t you?

I wanted to play along and managed to whip up two different designs:

Coffee is the answer by Amy Tsuruta for Coffee Loving Cardmakers

This card features the Big Christmas Cups – Shery Russ Designs + the sentiment is from the Anywhere There’s Coffee set.  Check out that (coffee) Droplets stencil!

Here’s my second design because I’m moving into Valentine’s Day mode:

Coffee by Amy Tsuruta for Coffee Loving Cardmakers

This card features the new And Coffee – The Bee’s Knees set.  The stencil is vintage from my stash.  Love that the latte art is included in the set, I’ve heat embossed that heart in white.

Both of my cards were inspired by Kerry’s Sip & Share sketch:

CLC Sip 12.17

Some of the Design Team wanted to play along too!  Please click on their names to be directed to their blog for all the details on their projects.

    What a beautifully written story. It is so refreshing and nice to hear how companies get their start, and even more so that it is a husband and wife team. Thank you for all the inspiration and congrats to Shery and David on the birth of their daughter Winter.
