A Bit About Me

My name is Jo Penney known as JoP and hence my blog is called joppy which could stand for something so I am making it stand for Jo Penney Posted to You but originally it was just the way I used to sign my initials at work and my boss at the time started calling me joppy. It has stuck!

I am a mum to two beautiful and clever grown up daughters both of whom inspire me. Also Grandma to one little boy. I live with my talented fiancĂ©  Si and recently moved just over 2 years ago from seaside to countryside and now I live just next to the border of  Exmoor, North Devon, England. I am missing being by the sea, but I am loving my escape to the country even more.
Here I am swinging on the weeping willow in my garden over the stream which feels a bit daring - will the rope snap will I fall into the stream!!
Crafting for me has always been in my family as long as I can remember and I have always wanted to make it my business. I recently re-joined Stampin' Up as an independent demonstator after a year or so break after covid lock downs on 2020/21. During this time I dropped paper crafting for a while and really found my mo-jo in other crafts that I had been longing to do and had not been able to due to being a demonstrator and feeling that I needed to be making blogs and doing social media stuff.
 I love wool crafts, sewing and paper crafting and plan to talk weekly about what I am making and planning to make on my You Tube channel which I will link here once it is tidied up!
My blog and You tube will not solely be about Stampin' Up and paper crafting but it will include what I am making and of course there will be cards and scrapbooking and boxes etc. because I love to make them. I have missed Stampin Up and glad to be back, having just one set of co-ordinating products in front of me helps me to avoid crafters block. I hope my Stampin' Up shop -( click on the link at the top of the blog page ) will also inspire you and save you tonnes of time shopping for products when you could be crafting! I am also in love with new kits collection as I have been trying to put a kit together for a reasonable price for years and now Stampin' Up have done it for me! Check out the kits collection in my online shop.
