I just arrived home last night late from a week in Orlando Florida for a Leadership Conference for my Stampin' Up! business. I was blessed to go a few days early with good friends from across the country and spend them at both Disney and Universal Studio before our conference started. I want to share just a little glimpse into my week over the course of the next few days. I hope you enjoy seeing how much fun we have as demonstrators! If you want to learn more about joining our fun Click here to get details or email me by clicking here and I am happy to answer ALL of your questions about Stampin' Up! as a hobby or a business.
We started out with a selfie in the airport, you will note a theme in the selfie dept. These were my travel-mates on my "adventure" this week. My Upline (the lovely woman who introduced me to Stampin' Up! as a business) Meg Loven in the center and my "side-line" (the lovely woman who also was introduced to Stampin' Up! by Meg) Shirley Casey on the right. We had such a lovely trip together!
Shirley and I could not go through Chicago-Ohare without a quick trip through the Garretts popcorn stand. The Chicago mix is just to die for! Cheese Popcorn and Carmel corn mixed while you wait. Do not knock it until you try it! Yummy!
Once we got to Orlando we met 2 of our friends that we would be spending the week in a condo with and headed directly to the parks. No time to drop our suitcases when there is riding to do!
Sue Bell in the back is from Ohio and is also my sideline and great friend. Betsy Crider waving so happily is my sideline and also my business accountability partner. Betsy is from Pennsylvania. I wanted to introduce you to these ladies because if you visit my blog this week you will see lots of pictures of them and I want you to know who they are. They are very special to me.
Our first ride of the afternoon was the Dr. Seuss ride. Another selfie full of fun! We wanted to get our money's worth after all!
I want to also share a design I came up with for a swap card that I shared at leadership. I was rushed with all the projects I was doing before I left and didn't think I would be able to take swaps but late the night before I came up with a design that I rather liked. At first I wasn't sure but my daughter saw it and said "that is nice" and my son's girlfriend walked over to my desk and said "OH, that's Cute!" so I thought it was well received. It's simple without embellishment which is not my usual style but I thought it was just right for this "Let's Get Away" stamp set in the Project Life line of products.
The Center images are stamped and punched out then attached to the base card with Stampin' Dimensionals. The Arrow image with the greeting is cut out with paper snips and also popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals.
It seems like it was a very appropriate card to send to my girlfriends before this week...but since it was so last minute I shared it with them during our adventure instead.
Here are the supplies I used to make this card. Please click on the links in each picture for more information or to order your supplies 24/7.
Please Check back in for more fun and samples from my trip this week! See you soon!
Enjoy!
