Stamps Alive is Sew Many Cards Sponsor This Week!

At Sew Many Challenges Stamps Alive is sponsoring this week’s challenge.  The challenge is to create an Easter project.  The winner will receive a CUTTLEBUG COMBO EMBOSSING FOLDER – DAMASK.

(Terri Olsen – Owner) SPONSOR BLURB --

I started my business in 1993 to give me something to do. I had worked all my life and recently quit to be a stay at home mom to my new baby. I've always been interested in paper products and I didn't like paying full price for some of the things I wanted. So I started my business. I like to pass my savings on to others. I've made some really good friends over the years. I've always been a small business I only advertise word of mouth. Over the years I've kept as busy as I wanted to be.

It has been very interesting to see the hobby industry change over the years. I had a "scrapbook" store in my basement before Las Vegas knew what a scrapbook store was. I've dealt with Provo Craft the entire 17 years I've been in business and that has been fun, to watch them change!!
