Hope you had a great weekend? Mine was fabulous.  I attended Stampin up! first on stage event.  It was a global event.  I attended the Mississauga Ontario event.  Although I missed a lot of friends who attended the others  across the world, l love that I got to see their posts in the cyber world, like facebook and instagram.  I love meeting all the familiar faces at the Mississauga on stage, friends that I had not seen in a long time… We had such an amazing time.  Got to stamp, see the new occasion catalogue,  swapped cards, got lots of new goodies.  And oh ya I won the best prize patrol, vintage style:)))

It was a fabulous event. I love goofing around.  And the starbucks helped the craziness…

Meet my friend Tammy!  She is new to my team.  So excited that she is starting this journey with me.  My new cupcake cutie demonstrator:)   If you would like to be part of my team click HERE and check out all the perks of being a demonstrator.  There are different reasons you might want to consider this great opportunity.  Next in the middle is Kay…. She is from the east coast.  Always brave to travel all this way…

Ahhh the Statement of the Heart and the primary reason I do this… "To love what we do and share what we love as we help others enjoy creativity and worthwhile accomplishments… In this we make a difference."  My daughter Megan cannot wait to become a demonstrator.  She is better than her mama at  stamping, so patient and organized.  I can't wait to attend Stampin up events with her..

I made 50 swap cards.  Love to get new ideas.  I guess I created one that required lots and lots of steps.  As we were driving up to Mississauga,  my Mc Steamy Honey and I, he said to me:  "you got to be pretty patient to do this…"  This is  all new to him.  I love him dearly for all his support and for keeping me company at night in the big city of Toronto.  He had to go work in Niagara Falls for the week so I didn't pass the opportunity to snuggle an extra 2 nights before he was away.  I guess I'm a little lost when he is not around.  We have this super routine and when he's not around, I just cannot function…  But he has found lots of creative ways to make me feel special when he is away.  I cannot really say how cause I think C J would be embarrassed that I share here but he's pretty special.

I love the washi label punch.  A big hug to my daughter Megan who punched all 50 and stamped the images as well.

And here you go, 50 cards later.  Let me tell you there were dimensionals paper in the car and in the hotel room, everywhere…  If you cannot attend my card class on November 19th, please email me and I will fill you in on my class to go opportunity, stamps in the mail.

The color combo and modified version came from Sara, Shelli' daughter.  She posted a similar one on www.Soshelli.com.  Check her version too, it's adorable.

There are 3 ways for getting a hand stamped card from me this month:  1- if you placed an order directly with me or on my website.  2-  if you are in my team of demonstrator and have achieved great sales, recruiting or hosted an event.  3-  if you are attended the on stage event organized by Stampin'up!  I'll have a swap card for you!!

Housekeeping:  I will be hosting a Christmas card class on November 19th,  Reserve your spot!

This little bag is the perfect mix of cute and creative.  Just look at what you can do with a few dies, some patterned paper and a bit of imagination. It’s so easy to make, and it’s great for treats and gift cards.
