I’m Leah Schneider, an Independent Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator from Minnesota.

I grew up on a farm and ranch in South Dakota and value my country roots, family, and “small town” upbringing.

My husband, Kris, and I just celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary! In the summers we enjoy camping and riding our side-by-side on trails in northern Minnesota and the Black Hills of South Dakota.

We have one dog, Luna, a rescue and “super mutt”, according to her DNA test. We also just adopted two cats (our other two cats sadly passed away last year). The new girls are named Lola and Harley. Harley acts like she owns the place and Lola is more reserved, still getting comfortable with her new surroundings.

I was introduced to paper crafting in high school - 30 years ago! I knew I had found my hobby! I quickly fell in love with both scrapbooking and stamping and have been enjoying both ever since.

Throughout my life and career I have discovered my values of helping others and teaching, which brings me here! My goal is to provide ideas and resources to others that will help enhance their creative journey.

I think it’s important for everyone do fun things and to have a hobby, a creative outlet, that they enjoy. I like breaking down barriers, so if the lack of budget, time, or ideas is holding you back, let’s chat! I would love to help you get started with paper crafting.
