About
Hello and welcome to the “About” section of i{heart}2stamp.com. Here you are going to find a little about life as I know it, as well as my design work and publication resume. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me.
My name is Jen del Muro and I am an avid rubber stamper and paper crafter. I don’t know when my love for paper and all things paper related started, but it has grown from just a love to a complete obsession and {almost} daily activity for me. I was introduced to the Stampin’ Up line of products a few years back and ever since then, I have been hooked on stamping. While SU! was my first love, it certainly wasn’t my last. I am glad that I have been introduced to several lines of stamps and stamping/paper crafting products.
My favorite stamping site of all-time is Splitcoaststampers.com. The first time I ventured onto this site, I think that I spent almost 4 hours just looking in awe at all the uploaded creations. In the fall of 2006, I got a very special e-mail from Julie Ebersole inviting me to be a part of the Splitcoast Design Team, affectionately know as the Dirty Dozen. Me, a Dirty Girl???…you bet I said “yes” {very emphatically!} to that invitation. I am so honored to have been a part of the “Dirt Pile.” All of those girls are so amazingly talented, not to mention so sweet…and quite witty! Since my time on the pile, several doors have opened up for me and I hope to continue progressing in the stamping community through my design work and publications. While I won’t call anyone my idol, I will certainly say there are a bunch of talented women {and men!!} out there that I can look up to in respect to those aspects of stamping.
As for the more personal side of me, I am married to the most wonderful man in the world, Tony. You’ll see him blogging here on the first Sunday of every month. We live in North Texas with our beautiful daughter and adorable son. Our house is also called home by our 2 dogs, Abby and Cooper, and a sly black cat, Gracie. Right now I am a stay at home mom, but look forward to re-entering the workplace at some point in time {well, maybe}.
