About Me


Hi there!  Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and taking interest in finding out a little about me, Kelli Metzler!


I am an Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator in the Northern Illinois area.  I live in a gated lake community called Lake Summerset, specifically, I live on a lakefront property in Birch Bay (hence my blog name!).  My husband and I have been married since 1982 and we have no children, but we are fortunate enough to live very close to family.  We enjoy spending as much time as we can with family and friends!

I have been a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator since November of 2009.  I have been a discount shopper for most of that time, collecting (hoarding?!) many beautiful Stampin’ Up! supplies and crafting with my friends and family.  I absolutely love the quality, coordination, variety and design of the Stampin’ Up! products and the integrity and caring of the Stampin’ Up! family!   

My recent retirement from my career in Information Technology has given me the chance to get more active with my stamping – woo hoo!!  I am building my Stampin’ Up! business and will be building a team and adding more to my blog (Online classes and clubs, loyalty program), Pinterest, Facebook (Facebook lives), YouTube & Instagram so please stay tuned!  


Thank you so much for checking out my blog – I hope you’ll come back often!  Please don’t hesitate to contact me HERE if you have any questions!
