On Stage Goodies

I think I shared this first picture with you the other day, this is the bag and goodies that we received when we checked in for On Stage this past week.  Each day we were given more goodies that were wonderful.


On Stage 2018
I didn’t realize how much stuff we actually received until I was unpacking everything last night when I returned home — WOW!!!  I received 5 stamp sets, a bone folder, new Gingham designer paper, a tool case and a fold up tote (great for traveling for extra new goodies).

On Stage 2018Team Gifts
I also got to spend 4 full days with team members — what a great bonding experience.  Many team members brought little gifts for each other.  Take a look at all these wonderful items, such talented and generous ladies.

On Stage 2018, Gum Holder


My friend, Robin, gave me a piece of Extra Gum when we went to the movies – the gum comes in this awesome plastic case.  Well, I knew right away I wanted to make it look pretty.  The November special stamp set, Snow is Glistening, was the perfect stamp set for this project.  I cut a piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock to fit in the case.  Next I stamped the falling snowflakes image with Bermuda Bay ink on the whole piece.  The Layering Circles Framelit was used with Pool Party for the “button” on the front.  Then I used Silver Foil Sheets and the coordinating Snowfall Thinlits to add one medium and three small silver snowflakes.  I love how this turned out.  What do you think?  It just might be one item for my Santa’s Workshop next month.

Do you want to order supplies to make this?
Just click on each item below and then run to the store for the packages of gum.

On Stage Day 2

Fun, Fun, Fun, that’s what today was!!  We had lots of wonderful stamping presentations by demos — I love when fellow demonstrators share their love of stamping.  During our lunch break we took pictures of each other by the “30” sign – celebrating 30 years of Stampin’ Up!

On Stage 2018
There was a timeline of Stampin’ Up!, Shelli Gardner (co-founder), her sister (co-founder) and Sara Douglass (Shelli’s daughter and CEO) through the 30 years.

I can’t believe it’s been almost 15 years since I joined as a demonstrator for Stampin’ Up!  We each took pictures in front of the year we joined as demonstrators.  Here’s me by 2004 and my daughter, Katie, by 2005.  Yes, she’s been a demonstrator for 13 years already and she’s still just a baby (my baby anyway).

 

On Stage 2018We have one more fun day here in Orlando, then we go home to reality — snow and cold weather.  I’m ready for some snow but not really cold weather.

Centre Stage and On Stage

While the weather in Illinois is turning cold and snowy, I’m sitting in hot Orlando, Florida.  We arrived very early Wednesday morning to celebrate Stampin’ Up!’s 30th anniversary.  Some great days with approx. 6,000 other demonstrators.  We checked in and got our tote bag of goodies.  Then my sister, Tina, and I headed to Epcot.  This was a special treat for demonstrators at the title of Silver Elite and above.

Stampin’ Up! had reserved a building for us that was filled with yummy desserts

They had special dessert stations — this was an infused pastry that looked really yummy

Yesterday we started the event with a Stampin’ Up! theme song by the Stampin’ Up! band — that was such a blast.

 

On Stage 2018Wendy was the first Prize Patrol winner but Helen and Sharon weren’t far behind.  I can’t wait to see if I win something tomorrow.

As I type this, it’s time for bed to get some rest for another big day today.
