When I started my Stampin' UP! business almost 17 years ago I lived in Kinston,NC and have moved 7 times since then. When I started recruiting my first recruit lived in Victorville,CA, then I moved back to NC and started working on my business. I have team members in several states and having an in person team meeting is impossible for me since I live in Florida and most of my team members are in NC.
Last weekend some of my team members gathered in Raleigh at Sue Root's house to meet and I met them on Skype and it was fun to see their smiling faces and the projects they were making. I sent a little gift for everyone to Sue in advance so she could make sure they got them at the meeting.
Below is left to right Sue Root, Pat Stockton, Karel Standish and me on Skype. What a fun time we all had. So you do not have to live next door to me to be on my team. I love it when they gather to create and share with each other. Contact me to join my team and to have all this fun now matter where you are in the US.
These
are the shoe box swaps they made. I sent mine in the mail for them to
have.
This was my team gift for those that attended. I have a demo friend in North Carolina (Tamra Davis) who engraves bone folders for personalizing their names and the name of my team WagStampers. I cased Becky Roberts cute bone folder holder to put them in and just wrapped them in this DSP paper and made that cute tag. Living in Florida I am loving the Pop of Paradise NEW stamp set that has flamingos and palm leaves and a pineapple. I know you will love it too.
Here
is a sample of the adorable bone folders that Tamra engraved for me.
Thanks for stopping by and don't forget you can order from the new catalog June 1st and view the catalog on line then if you do not already have a catalog of your own. Contact me for information on sending you one in the US only.
Make sure you follow the NC Demo Blog Hop.
