Hi, I'm Stephanie! As a wife and mom of two, I've always had a creative streak. After a 15-year hiatus from computers, I rediscovered my passion for crafting in 2020 with a vinyl cutting machine. I had envied those with lasers and admired all the amazing projects they created — I knew I needed a laser.
I took the leap and purchased an Atomstack A30 laser cutter, despite having no experience. The Atomstack community, particularly the Facebook Groups, became my lifeline. I devoured tutorials, asked questions, and learned from others. My first projects were simple, but I quickly moved on to more complex designs.
I challenged myself with my first real project by making my son's baseball team bag tags. To say I made them the hard way is an understatement — but I learned a lot! The encouragement from family and friends to sell my crafts led me to launch Black Cat Krafts.
Upgrading to the Atomstack A30 was a game-changer, allowing me to create at a much faster pace. Mastering LightBurn software took my crafting to new heights, and I now make all my projects from file to finish.
Today, I use my laser cutter for fun, gifts, décor, and problem-solving. The Atomstack community's support has been invaluable, and I'm grateful for their expertise. Being a laser owner has opened a world of creativity for me, and I'm proud to be part of the Atomstack community of users.
