So many way cool new items were introduced at Convention! As an Demonstrator attendee, I received 3 FREE stamps sets in my convention bag along with the new catalog and various other publications and announcements. Receiving that bag is always an exciting moment!
My bag:
This is one of the nicest bags I received in my 13 years as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. It uses two of the 2008-09 In Colors: Kiwi Kiss and Baja Breeze.
And here are my FREE stamp sets:
Top left: Eastern Blooms
Bottom left: Flight of the Butterfly
Right: Inspired by Nature (which would have been the first set I purchased from the new catalog)
Stampin' Up! loves to surprise us and they pulled a great one this year! A UPS man 'rang the doorbell', ran up to Shelli (Gardner, our CEO) on stage and announced that he had stamps for every demonstrator in the audience! Through the curtains came the flaming UPS truck, and out jumped what seemed like thousands of UPS drivers delivering stamps. Can you say "pandamonium"? 6500 demonstrators went nuts!
Our FREE stamp set, compliments of UPS, was this year's Ronald McDonald House Charities set: Say It with Scallops. Of course it perfectly matches our new Scallop Square Punch! What a generous gift from UPS. Shelli said there was a UPS driver from nearly every state in the union there to pass out the stamp sets. Wowsers!!!
Vanilla Hodgepodge Hardware is introduced!
It's beautiful.
Isn't that just lovely? There are approximately 100 embellishments and 100 really neat 3/16" brads in each Hodgepodge Hardware Kit: Styled Vanilla and Styled Silver.
There's more to come so come on back soon.
