Every Blessing


I had the privilege of completing the packaging for the volunteer gifts at my church this year. The office staff creates a gift of appreciation to the many volunteers who help throughout the year and for the past many years that gift has been a stamped desk calendar. This year they are packaged in CD mailers and I was happy to see that the Every Blessing stamp set is perfectly sized for the front.

Delicate Ornament Card

Happy December! November went by in a flash but left behind some wonderful memories. John & I celebrated our 30th (whaaat!) Wedding Anniversary with a weekend trip to San Francisco. This time of year until summer comes around again, those of us in the Pacific NW travel south whenever we can :) San Francisco did not disappoint us with 2 of our 3 days being sunny and warm.

 

 
On Saturday we wandered Chinatown and the Waterfront
 
 Sunday was our actual anniversary and we went on a Sonoma/Napa wine tour

Monday was notably cooler but we zipped around in this cute little "car" to see more of the area.

We returned home to celebrate Thanksgiving with family and now it is time to turn our attention toward Christmas.

This card just makes me happy! I love the red and silver foil paper and the touch of glimmer paper. My recent class attendees enjoyed making it as well.

Are you making your Christmas cards this year? The Gold Glimmer Paper is one of the current Weekly Deals so be sure to pick some up!

On Stage Local 2015

When Stampin' Up! holds an event in your state YOU GO! No question! On Saturday I joined hundreds of demonstrators in Vancouver, WA for what turned out to be a full day of new product reveals, stamping, demonstrations, prizes, gifts and just plain fun! The "Main Event" was held in Brussels, Belguim but we had just as much fun watching video from that event and live demonstrations at our venue.
 
 Here we are getting ready for the day

 We each received a tote bag containing a New stamp set from the upcoming Occasions catalog, a planner/notebook, set of logo pens and an event pin in 1 of 8 colors as well as this metal water bottle.

My pin color was Pacific Point and when it was called I won another New stamp set!


The Occasions catalog is all about celebrations and we got our hands on 4 New stamp sets and coordinating products to create these...
 It's My Party Suite

 Botanical Gardens Suite

 Going Places Suite

 Love Blossoms Suite
(this was cut with the new Bloomin' Heart Thinlits Die! eek!!!)
 
We were also gifted a paper stack, a 3rd New stamp set and hot off the press copies of the 2016 Occasions catalog, the 2016 SaleABration brochure (you're going to love it!), and our demonstrator magazine - Stampin' Success. Wahoo! I love being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. Would you like to join my team and attend the next event?
 
There is so much more in the new catalog that I will show you soon but first, I will be returning to our regularly scheduled Christmas postings :) Stay tuned!

Jingle All the Way Ornaments

Stampin' Up! puts on a great event and this weekend was no exception! The main event, OnStage Live, was held in Brussels, Belgium but I was able to attend 1 of 11 OnStage Local events held in the US, Canada and Australia. Friday evening I attended Centre Stage, the Leadership dinner. We were treated to a catered dinner, beautiful table settings, table gifts and training.





 Planner/Notebook and gift at my place setting

 hmmm... Sort.Store.Create
Wonder what it is?

 Pretty...

It's an embellishment organizer and it includes some goodies! Fun!!!


Three members of my team were also able to make the trip to Vancouver, WA and I brought along this gift for them...
 


 
I love the Jingle All the Way stamp set and coordinating Sleigh Ride edgelits dies. I saw several similar ornaments online and just knew I needed to make some :)

Come back on Tuesday to see some pictures from the Saturday event and a few sneak-peeks of the upcoming Occasions Catalog!
