I told you I would be back to share a bit about the Stampin' Up! On Stage event that I went to this past weekend. We were fortunate to have our local event in Madison, Wisconsin — close to home, just a short drive. These events are special because it is a time to catch up with demos from all other the United States — there were 20 different states represented in Madison. We learned new stamping techniques and get a sneak peek at new product coming out in the Occasions Catalog in January — I can't share any of it with you yet, but you are going to love it.
As I said the other day, Saturday was my sister Tina's birthday. How cool to celebrate with 700 of your closest friends. Tina did a presentation on Saturday too — she did an amazing job.
My daughter Katie is one of my team members and she has to take a selfie of us at each Stampin' Up! event.
It's entertaining to see the differences in us at each event (fat Peggy, skinny Peggy, old Peggy, young Katie) but I love being able to attend with her and with Tina.
We had 16 other team members go to Madison besides the three of us. It was amazing. Here we are at the team dinner we planned after the event was over. That's quite a table full of ladies.
We had a blast spending the day together. Tina and I made little treats for each member attending — a popcorn box filled with popcorn, a cello bag filled with hard candies and a hand sanitizer — all three items were decorated so cute. Here is the hand sanitizer.
Wouldn't this be great for a little teacher gift — check out my Santa's Workshop coming up in December — this might be one of the items on the list of things you could purchase to make.
If you love to stamp or need a group of fun friends to "hang" with, contact me, I would love to have you join the fun and become a member of my team.
