Hi Stampers,
Last night was a wonderful event. In addition to the catalog we got a new stamp set, (Work of Art, I love it, and it's in the new catalog), the upcoming Stampin' Success, and yes, some won prize patrol items. 🙂 Here is a picture of my some of demonstrator friends who attended the event! I am so glad we all were able to get together.
I have spent most of the morning looking at the catalog instead of working! :o) Sorry, about the late post but I just could not put it down!
The new catalog seems to be very well thought out and laid out. I haven't heard one grumble yet. Love the layout. Accessories list in the back as well as stamp sets. Lots of bundle and kit ideas. Layouts for different levels of stamping interest and skill.
Shelli's outfit was awesome—just her style. 
It's really strange to be among a small crowd at an SU! event. 7600 (I think) nationwide. 450 in Long Beach and 7100 in the other 39 venues. Minus Birmingham AL which was cancelled because of bad weather, I hope your weather is improving in that part of the country.
Demonstrators attending the 2014 Convention—will get to see the 'reveal' of the Holiday Occasions catalog there, along with the opportunity (hint hint they said) to pre-order right at Convention AND to (maybe) purchase some items on the spot. We'll see what happens.
Here is a card made by Shelli using the stamp set we given, I bet you know why I love it now!
If you love stamping and want to share in the fun consider joining my team! You can find all the details here! I am off to look to look at that catalog just a bit more!
Squee! I can’t wait to see the new catalog and hear all the details of your trip. I’m so out of touch, I didn’t even realize that this was going on this week. Love the pic of you and the girls. You look fabulous, but how could it be any other way, right? 😉 Let’s get together when you get back. I don’t think I can make it Saturday due to a NSD online crop on the site I hang out at that I just can’t miss…unless maybe I can do both. I miss you!
