What a Blast! And I have the New Catalog In MY HANDS

Last night my team and I got to attend (along with 7,600 other demonstrators across the country in 40 locations) a live-streamed Stampin' Up! Catalog Premiere event at a theatre here in Eagan, MN. Shelli Gardner, co-founder and CEO of Stampin' Up! along with many other SU employees that are "famous in our demonstrator world" entertained us and trained us on the in's and out's of the new upcoming 2014-15 Annual Catalog. We saw great techniques, fabulous samples, and learned lots of little tidbits to share.

It was a fun time – so much fun that I couldn't shut my brain off to get to sleep last night. Crazy!

Here are some photos from the fun night…

Here is our carpool group – Tricia, Cheryl, Brenda, Denise, Lynn and me.

We met up with 4 others (Kirsten, Vicki, Julie and Lisa) in our team at Panera (yum!) before the Premiere for an early dinner. Lots of laughter and excitement as we anticipated what the evening had in store for us.

Then Lori, Beth, and Crystal met us at the theatre, and we were lucky enough to all sit together. (Tami in Florida was with us in spirit while she attended the Orlando Premiere.)

Here's Shelli (on screen) kicking off the Premiere.

A few of us got prizes!!! Julie got a great baby stamp set. And Lisa and I got the new In Color card stock and a Designer Paper stack to match.

Of course,…so we would pay attention to the presentations, they distributed the new catalog (and a bonus free stamp set that is to die for!) as we left, so we had to gather at the closest Perkins Restaurant to "OOoooo and Ahhhhhh" over the details in the pages.

It was such a fun night!! Thanks, Stampin' Up!
Just another wonderful perk of being a demonstrator.

Dates to keep in mind…

May 1st – Demonstrators will be able to preorder certain select products (good ones, too!) from the new catalog. Join the family of demonstrators (we have a fun team!), and you can be among the first to order as well!

June 2nd – the new catalog goes live, and everyone can order.
