On Stage Fun in Salt Lake City

What a fabulous couple of days I have had.  I am in Salt Lake City for Stampin’ Up!’s On Stage event.  We’ve never been here in November — much cooler than the trips we have taken in July.

Stampin’ Up! kicked off their 30th Anniversary at this On Stage!!

We started Thursday afternoon getting checked in and received our On Stage bag filled with goodies.

Then we headed off to Main Stage for presentations by Sara Douglass, Shelli Gardner and other Stampin’ Up! employees.  There are approximately 2,200 demonstrators here in the Salt Palace.  That’s a lot of people in one place.

My daughter, Katie, and sister, Tina, are both here along with two of my team members and two of Tina’s.  Katie takes a selfie of her and I at each event we attend.  Here is this year’s picture (love our mom and daughter time together).

We received a copy of the upcoming Occasions Catalog and Sale-a-Bration brochure.  There are some fabulous new products coming out — you are going to love it.

Yesterday morning, Tina presented in front of all 2,200 demos in attendance.  She demonstrated a new stamp set coming out.  What a wonderful job she did — she is a natural at presenting.  It was great to be here and watch her perform.

We ended the evening with a team dinner — all seven of us laughing the night away.  We still have one more day to go — I can’t wait.  Next year we will finish up the 30th Anniversary with OnStage in Orlando, Florida.  You could join us there next year.  I would love to talk to you about the possibilities.
