Hello Stampin’ Friends,

Today is a bit different type of post than my usual … I have a couple of stamping projects to show you today, but I want to share a bit more of me.

Most of you know the main reason I have stayed with Stampin’ Up! for 14 years… it’s the beautiful friendships I have built.  Today I’m going to share another reason I love Stampin’ Up!… traveling!

The idea began with my Technique Club and our discussion of traveling and where we all have gone.  Some one had brought up the subject of people on the docks handing you animals, which brought me to my story…

  I couldn’t remember what I was holding before they put the iguana on my head …. but this will explain it!!

I was trying to get a picture with Flat Stanley.  That smile … was me gritting my teeth and asking them to take that thing off my head!  LOL

This is the Mexican Riviera cruise that I had earned through Stampin’ Up!  I love to cruise!  I  never thought that I would enjoy being “stuck” on a ship, but let me just say … it is a wonderful experience.  Just think, each night you go to bed, and the next day you wake up some place new.  And the food … yum!

My date for the evening was of course, Flat Stanley.  He went on all our excursions with us.  I could make a whole scrapbook of Flat Stanley on this trip!!  Oh, and by the way,  he never did come home with us … I think the stayed there because we never did find him after that!!

Well … you can’t go to any Stampin’ Up! event without either stamping or having samples every where!  It’s so much fun!  Here are just a couple of samples…

Some of you know … I love “boots”!  They have a very special meaning for me.  Here are some cute scrapbook pages.  These would work well in our 8 x 8 inch albums.

I still go back and view some of the pictures I have taken to get some inspiration, and that is how I found all these photos.  Don’t forget … You can take a layout, or a style of card and create something new using the items you already have.

I hope you enjoyed traveling along with me today.  I ask you, if you have ever thought of becoming a demonstrator, we should talk.  I have a wonderful group … the Star’s by Design, and we would love to welcome “you” into our group.

Whether it’s a need for additional money, the traveling, some well deserved recognition or the wonderful  friendships you build … it’s a great company to work with.  Remember, you’re the boss – you set your work schedule around your family, and as little or as often as you’d like.

During Sale-a-bration … Stampin’ Up! is offering additional $$ to the starter kit you design (I’ll help you if you’d like) but it’s still only $99.  Talk to me or click on the “join” link for more information or to sign up.  There is amazing support … and it starts with me.

Thanks for coming along on my journey today … I would be honored to help you navigate your new adventure.

Have a super Saturday!
