Stampin' Mama's twisted page on the Planet!

Hi! My name is Erika Martin and I live in northern Vermont. I've been married for 12 years to my sweetheart, David. We have two children: Zach (10) and "Girly" (9).

I've been scrapbooking for 12 years and stamping for 8 years. I love trying out new techniques and projects and I'm always thinking of new ways to use what I have in my stash. One of my passions is teaching classes. I love nurturing the creative sides of people, even if they don't realize they really DO have a creative side. I've been offering "in-person" classes for the past 7 years and also hold weekend retreats. I started a tutorial program a year and a half ago and it's been very well received. I realized how much I loved reaching out with my classes to people all across the world that weren't able to come to my local classes. It opened up a whole new way for me to nurture people's creative sides and has enabled me to make many new friends.

About a year ago, my online classes were born. I love the interaction that these online courses offer between both myself and the students and even between the students.....I've watched students make lasting friendships with each other and that makes these courses even more rewarding for me!

It is my hope and goal that you will get far more out of these courses than you imagined and that you'll make some new friends along the way, as well.
