Here at the Klompen Stampers, we are a community where paper crafters will find friendships, artistic growth, encouragement, and support. We have a diverse team with a wide range of stamping styles. Whether you’re drawn to clean and simple designs or prefer intricate, layered creations, you’re going to find creative inspiration within the Klompen Stampers! The best part about our active online community is that we share new ideas and techniques, and are always learning from one another.
Today, I want to spotlight one of our talented team members, Theresa Sissons, and show off her adorable, cheerful handmade cards designed with the Ice Cream Swirl Bundle. Theresa doesn’t stick to any certain stamping style, she loves to try them all! She makes simple cards along with more elaborate cards – it all depends on how much time she has. She loves to challenge herself and branch out and encourages you to do the same. Sometimes it works out and sometimes it’s a fail, but according to Theresa, you’ll always be happy that you tried and stretched your brain a bit!
Get to Know Theresa Sissons
A few fun facts about Theresa:
- She’s only been stamping for a little over 2 years, and is coming up on her 2nd anniversary of being a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator!
- She has two small rescue dogs! A 5-year-old Schnorkie (Schnauzer/Yorkie mix) named Wylie, and a 1-year-old Bich-Poo (Bichon Frise/Poodle mix) named Theo.
- Her three favorite Stampin’ Up! colors are Berry Burst, Lemon Lolly, and Pretty Peacock.
Why Theresa joined the Klompen Stampers Team:
Theresa joined the Klompen Stampers by default. After watching YouTube videos in 2022 she decided to join under Heidi Collins, another member of the Klompen Stampers team. She is grateful that she joined under who she did and loves all the perks of being part of the Klompen Stampers “family”.

Ice Cream Swirl Card Details
Theresa’s cards are so bright and cheerful – and that’s not just because she also used the Bright & Beautiful DSP!
