My team meets the challenge

Very soon we will be launching the new 2016-17 catalogue.

My little team shared some of the highlights of this new catalogue last week. One of the perks of being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is getting to see and play with the products before they are released to the public. Some of the team managed to attend our OnStage event on the Gold Coast, this was a one day event to show us what to expect to find in the new catalogue and to get our hands on some of them.

Leisha one of my new Team members was the first to win a stamp set. Do you think she is excited?

Actually I came home with 3 new stamp sets and the new In Colour Write Markers, plus lots of card samples.

I didn't want the rest of the team to miss out on some of the excitement and fun of a new catalogue that we had on the Gold Coast. So we had our team meeting while watching the On Line show and playing with some of the new products. I set up the studio to replicate a mini event, putting up some of the samples and items that I had received on the day.

I also had to set up a bed for Kerry as she had a bad accident and couldn't sit for too long. Looked so cosy, I wished it could stay.

In preparation for the meeting I gave them all a challenge. We have just finished Sale-a-Bration and some of the Free stamp sets are gorgeous. The challenge was for them to make a card using one of their favourites. This is what they came up with.

Leisha Ward created these lovely cards

Kerry Kelly has a way with Aqua painters.

Sarina Burke my newest team member used the Bokeh technique for her challenge.

 

I am so thrilled with how the event turned out.We oohed and ahhed over the new catalogue and played around with the products that I had won.
