Local Onstage

November 2019

Hello,

We are almost at the end of November. Can you believe it? I promised to share some pictures of my totally awesome day at Stampin' Up Local Onstage in Toronto. I'm sorry that I am behind in posting these pictures. It was a wonderful day and I met some very nice demonstrators who were sitting at my table. I must say that in walking around meeting people and asking different demonstrators questions - they were all very friendly. We are all here to help you. When you sign in, you pick a number. Throughout the day if you have the number (1 - 6) that they announce you stand up and you get a gift.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             This is me getting my first ever prize                     patrol gift! I received the Painted                           Poppies stamp set that is in the new                       Mini Catalogue.









                                                                                This is the new Mini Catalogue that goes live on January 3, 2020. It has a different layout which is really neat and lots of great products to choose from! If you want me to mail you a copy, just contact me at marydek@yahoo.com. I would be happy to send you one along with the Sale-A-Bration Brochure which is for the sales period January 3 - March 31, 2020. If you spend $60 you get a free product from the brochure. There is no limit on how many you can get. There are also two larger items that you can choose if you wish when you spend $120 (or you can choose two $60 gifts).






                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  I made my penguin Z fold card to swap with other demonstrators and these are some of the cards that I received in return. Everyone including you is so talented! The top middle card is made with the Back on your Feet stamp set. It is so cute. My daughter's boyfriend almost cut off his finger with a saw and has had two surgeries to repair it. It is bandaged up now and she wants to give to card to him! It's very appropriate - lol.                                                                 

                                                                                                                                                              These are two lovely Christmas cards.

  

                                                     

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         There were French speaking demonstrators at the                 event as well and this is from one of them. Whenever           there was a prize they stood up first so that they                   could receive a stamp set with French sentiments.                 Stampin' Up thought of everything!

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                This was my favourite card that I received. I love this stamp set but I don't own it. It is called Friend like You with matching dies. It's hard to see in the picture but the demonstrator put the grass through the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder and it added so much to the card.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
The demonstrator sitting next to me was Nature Gibner (www.inkninspiration.com    mature@onkninspiration.com). She was so kind and helpful. She made a treat box with a Ferrero Rocher chocolate inside. I didn't get a picture - well because it was chocolate and you know -well you can resist eating chocolate? LOL


These are the stamp sets that I won. Everybody received the Timeless Tulip stamp set. In the catalogue there is also a Tulip Builder Punch. I won the Painted Poppies (there are matching dies) and the Forever Blossoms (there are also matching dies for this in the catalogue).

We did make and takes with the tulips and blossoms stamp sets.

                                             

                       I also won one of the new punches that are offered. It is                                 called the Label Me Fancy Punch. As you can see it has a                           hole and a longer opening that you can punch on your label                           if  you wish. The hole would be for twine and the slit for                               ribbon. It's really neat!                                                             

Oh, we also received a backpack and as if that wasn't enough everyone received a pack of CountryClub DSP. If you know someone who likes to golf this is the paper for you!

If you like to colour images, this paper has something for you as well. This is a close up of that page.

So this was Onstage! What with all of the speakers, meeting other demonstrators, the make and takes, the demonstrations and the previews of the new Occasions Brochure and Sale-A-Bration Brochures it was awesome!!!!! Oh, and did I mention the free gifts!!!!! :)  :)                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          All of these items and many more will be available to order January 3 to June 2, 2020.   

          Sale -A-Bration runs from January 3 to March 31, 2020 or while supplies last .       

As always if you have any questions you can email me at marydek@yahoo.com (also if you want a catalogue). In the meantime don't forget about the Holiday Catalogue that goes until January 2, 2020. It sure does feel funny writing 2020!!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  I hope that you have a fun weekend and can sneak in making a card or two. There are only                 4 Saturdays until Christmas. Do you have all of your cards made yet?
