It's fun to be a Demo!

One of the best things about being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator (besides all the wonderful friends you make) is all the cool things you get to attend.  When I flew to Wisconsin last month to spend the weekend with three of my dearest friends, we also got to go down to Chicago to attend a special SU! event with other Members of our group.  It was so fun and I came away with the best cards and samples I have ever left an event with - in over 10 years of being a Demonstrator.   This was absolutely OUTSTANDING!  This is one of the benefits of joining my team.  You get to be part of an awesome group of very talented, sharing and caring Demonstrators.  And the group I am in are truly the cream of the crop!  You still have until October 18th to join Stampin' Up! and get the FREE Craft Tote with your starter kit!  Take advantage of this wonderful opportunity now and then later, you can take advantage of the wonderful events we have planned!

This picture isn't great, but here is a small sample of some of the ideas that were shared: 

Never too old for Goofy Stuff - Punch Art

In August, I joined three of my closest friends in Wisconsin for a stamping weekend marathon!  We laughed and stamped and ate and started all over again.  There was very little sleeping involved and we had a great time!  Here is one of the darling cards we made.  It uses Top Note and Scallop dies, flower punch and the senitment is from the set "Smarty Pants."

Tote-ally AWESOME Opportunity!

Starting Over - A New Stampin' Year!

So, I've been extremely negligent in posting to my blog! Since I don't believe I have a following, this is a mute point! Hah!

I am very excited about SU!s new catalog year. It's absolutely fabulous. My wish list is way too long, so I better get working to justify all the new stuff I want!

This will be a quickie post for today to include the links to my website and our catalogs. Sign up for my Blog Feed. I'm going to start giving away some of my over 300 stamp sets that are retired! Leave a comment and you will be entered in for a free stamp set on my drawing date of August 31st!

Happy Stampin'!!

Why I am not going to the office today...

Here is our driveway

Here is my car

Here is our 4-Wheel Drive BIG truck...in the ditch trying to get out of the driveway

I think I declare this a day of crossword puzzles, naps by the fire and uncombed hair!

NEW! NEW! NEW!

Wow, Stampin' Up! continues to amaze me. Each year (I've been with SU! over 10 years now) keeps getting better and better. I know you probably tire of hearing this, but I'm very excited to announce that our next Occassions Mini is introducing some FABULOUS new products!

How about Clear Mount Stamps?? What does this mean? Well, for years, many Demos and Customers have wanted clear stamps for multiple reasons. It's easier for stamp placement, easier for storage and just plain cool. SU! had not followed this trend for a very good reason; the acrylic/clear stamps simply do not have the stamped quality of rubber mounted stamps. Well, SU! has done it again. They have developed a rubber-mounted stamp (which gives superior stamping images)that applies to a clear block. They are stored in DVD style cases and they ROCK! I haven't been able to do a little video on them, (I'm still having equipment challenges), but if you want to see what they look like and how they work, let me know and I'll send you a link to a video a friend of mine did.

New Punch Style! They close shut, are low profile and take up a lot less storage room. YES! If you want to see them in person, let me know. You will love, love, love them!

Awesome New Papers...I'm not sure which ones I love best!

While I can't share the Occassions Mini with you yet because of SU! restriction, trust me that you will want to see one and you will want many things contained it it.

Also, the Occassions Mini debuts at the same time as Sale-A-Bration! For those of you who don't know what Sale-A-Bration is (SAB)....in two words it's "FREE PRODUCT!" For every $50 you spend on stamps and accessories from Jan 5 - March 31, you get to choose from free stamp sets. This year, not only can you choose from stamp sets, but there is a wonderful new punch, papers and you can even choose some items from our 2009-2010 Idea Book and Catalog!

This is a GREAT time to book a workshop with me and get lots of FREE HOSTESS product and FREE SAB products too! I have limited space available, so call me as soon as possible. If you want to host a workshop at my house, we can do that too.

Have I said that SU! ROCKS!

Looking forward to stamping and scrapping with you in the near future!
