Once I started teaching it felt good to show others how to use their creatvity. I have made so many new friends and traveled alot,  I have been to convention 4 times now, once in Denver and 3 other times in Salt Lake City.  I am ready to go again in July.  I have been to Leadership twice once in Nashville TN and the other time just recently in San Antonio.  Not only do they have fabulous training sessions but also reward the top demonstrators with bonuses free stamp sets and more and trips of all sorts including Alaska, Hawiaii , Disney and Fujii. 

I hope you take advantage of the $99 sign up and join my team too.  For the $99 you get to completely customize your kit YOUR WAY!  You just click on my website and go to Join the FUN .  Pick up to $125 worth of wonderful Stampin' UP! products to make up your kit.  Stampin up will send you for FREE your 8 catalogs and business supplies and DVD's to start up your business.
  Stampin' UP! has been the funnest job I have ever had. To make my quarterly minimum I only have to have about one gathering of friends a month and put together some simple cards.

Please go to my website and sign up today so you can reserve your spot at Stampin UPs upcoming events.

The Stamping Wife

The Stamping Wife
Author Unknown
She learned to stamp on Monday
Her embossing was quite fine.
She forgot to make us dinner,
So we went out to dine.

She brayerd backgrounds Tuesday
She says they are a must.
They really were quite lovely
But she forgot to dust.

On Wednesday it was birthday cards
She says that chalking's fun.
Shading, blending, and watercoloring.
But the laundry wasn't done.

Her card swap was on Thursday
Using green and blue and red;
I guess she really was engrossed,
She never made the bed!

It was shaker cards on Friday
Using techniques she just adores,
But she never seemed to notice
The crumbs on all the floors.

I found a maid on Saturday!
My week is now complete
My wife can stamp the hours away,
And the house will still be neat.

Well, it's already Sunday,
And my forehead's feeling damp.
I cursed, I raved, and I ranted. . .
The MAID has learned to stamp!!!

Artisan Award Contest Entries in the MAIL!

I can't share my photos until after convention but I did put all my entries and forms in the mail this week and they should arrive in SLC on Friday way before the deadline! Thanks to the extra time given to us to complete the entries I was able to compete again this year. I was running close to the deadline and low and behold they changed the rules! They also added some perks and award money for finalist this year. Way better in my opinion. Well wish me luck and I can't wait to see the results at convention.

Black Bear Anyone???

 

                               

No Joke today while having a late lunch in Ocala after my stamping class at Top of the World a man came into Panera and let us know there was a Black Bear up in a Tree behind the Dick’s Sporting Goods and the Cadillac dealership.  Being a curious one I went and investigated myself here sat the happy Bear in his favorite slumber spot. I can now say I have indeed seen a real live Black Bear here in Florida !  I have lived here all my life and this is the first one other than at the Lowery Park Zoo in Tampa I have seen.  Pretty exciting to me cause I am a real nature lover.
