Stampin’ Up! Founder’s Daughter Takes on CEO Role

Stampin’ Up! is keeping it in the family with the appointment of new Chief Executive Officer Sara Douglass, daughter of Co-Founder Shelli Gardner.

The role is one for which Douglass has been groomed over the course of several years, company officials said in a statement. The mother of five has worked with Gardner, longtime CEO of Stampin’ Up!, in all areas of the business. Most recently, Douglass led the company as Interim CEO while her parents undertook a year-long service mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

As she takes the helm on a permanent basis, Douglass will have the support of Gardner, who plans to remain active in the business as co-founder and board chair. “My mom’s passion and vision helped create Stampin’ Up!, and her ongoing guidance will be invaluable as we continue to collaborate and partner at the highest level to grow this amazing company,” said Douglass.

After 28 years in business, the Riverton, Utah-based company is in 10 countries across North America, Asia Pacific and Europe. More than 45,000 independent salespeople, known as demonstrators, sell the brand’s wide range of stamps and paper-crafting products.
