Team Meeting Shares

Yesterday I told you we held our Demo Make & Take and Team Meeting on Saturday.  My sister, Tina, and I hold a Demo Make & Take with each new catalog.  Everyone makes 20 cards featuring lots of new products — stamps, framelits, embossing folders, designer paper, accessories, punch, etc.
After the Make & Take we held a Team Meeting — we do this big group team meetings about once per quarter — it's a great time to build the relationships between team members — we have become like family.

Here's a picture of some of the ladies stamping away at the Make & Take session.
Tables of stampers
When this event finished we cleaned everything up.
Some people had to leave for other commitments but a group
of them stayed for the Team Meeting.
We do a Make & Take of 4 cards at the meeting too.
So they went home with 24 cards total.

Here they are listening and writing notes while Tina gives some important information.
Team Meeting Stampers
We asked some of our team members to make a display using one of the new Holiday stamp sets.  They told us which set they wanted to use.  The displays were fabulous and I'll share those over the next few days.
We also told them all to bring things they have been working on to share with everyone.  Again, their shares were amazing — some very talented ladies in this room.
I believe it was Lynn who brought these wonderful samples using the Swirly Scribbles Thinlits.  These are great Fall cards.
Swirly Pumpkin
I love this pumpkin.
Swirly Acorns
Here's the Acorny Thank You stamp set and the Acorn Punch.
Great card.

I'll continue to share more of their great cards and projects.
I would love to have you join my team and attend our meetings.
