All I want for Christmas....

..... is my own Stampin' Up! Starter Kit
I heard this before, and let me tell you, your time is coming very soon, just hold off a few more days...
Sale-A-Bration 2017 kicks off January 4th, running thru to March 31st.
It’s the best time of year to join Stampin’ Up! during Sale-A-Bration, you can become a demonstrator for just $135 CAD and choose TWO additional stamp sets for your Starter Kit—any stamp set, any price (excludes Sale-A-Bration sets and bundles), plus, the kit ships for free!
So I am just saying .... a $135 gift card from Santa would get you pretty far, and I will be here to help you all they way.
January 4th is THE DATE TO order your Starter Kit.
Check the About section of my website for info about being a Demonstrator and my Stampingbirds Team.

OnStage Local in Ottawa

I signed up to travel to Ottawa to attend OnStage, my second event of this type.
I met up with Cathy Miller at the Halifax airport, we were in this together, and what an awesome time it was.
As Stampin' Up! demonstrators we are hardly ever alone. Lisa Henderson took us shopping to IKEA and we met my downline Amy and her daughters and one of my friends, also a very avid papercrafte. What surprise!
The first day ended with dinner and lots of story telling.
Early Saturday morning we walked to the venue enjoying the fresh air and beautiful sunshine. Close to 300 demonstrators from Canada, 11 from the US, gathered to celebrate achievements, learn new information and make several cards using brand-new product from the next Occasions Catalogue and our Sale-A-Bration flyer. Stampin' Up! Is well known for spoiling us at events, they did it again.
At the end of the day we walked back to our hotel, full of new ideas, lots of gifts and swap cards in our special bags. Our day ended with a pizza party where Cathy and I joined a small group of demo friends from Nova Scotia and Newfoundland, it coukd not have been any more perfect!
On April 8, 2017 Canadian demonstrators will gather again at OnStage, this time in Toronto, and I hope to see many of you there with me.
To find out how to be eligible for this event, contact me and I will explain it all In detail.
