Hi Stampers,
Yesterday for the very first time ever Stampin' Up! unveiled the new catalog to demonstrators in true Red Carpet Style on the Big Screen!!
Before I tell you more - I have to give a big HI!!! out to all the local demonstrators who stopped me to say Hi and let me know they read my blog!! Hi back and THANKS for saying Hi to me - I LOVE meeting my blog readers!!
Ok back to the event... We got to go to the Regal Mills theater and watch a live broadcast from Stampin' Up! They gave us our first look at the catalog and of course did some stamping on stage to inspire us to start creating with the new products. At the end of the night they sent us home with our very own copy of the new 2014 Catalog and one of the new Stamp Sets!!
***SPOILER ALERT***
You're going to LOVE IT!!!! Get your wish lists ready :) the layout this year is fabulous - the projects are inspirational - and the new in colors are Gorgeous!!
Don't forget I'm running my annual offer to Spiral Bind your copy of the new catalog - if you want a spiral bound copy click here to find out more...
So you're wondering what this has to do with the cute box in the picture above?? Of course (since I find any excuse I can to create) I had to make a small gift for each of my Create, Ink! team members who were at the event with me!
I saw this fun box on the Pootles blog and it was perfect to hold my goodies. Inside each box I put two of my New Catalog Essentials!! Highlighter tape to make the items I already own (because it's easy to get carried away when you see things in the new catalog and forget you already own it and don't need to order it again) and Page Flage to mark the things I want!!! Of course I usually mark every other page - so I'm not sure how much those page flags help :) but I can't live without 'em!!
It's also a tradition I started years ago to give my team members a charm for each event they attend - So for this event I found these cute Admit One Ticket Charms
Isn't that fun and perfect??? I've collected many charms over the years!! If you want tosee at all my charms - and much more importantly get a peek at the cover of the new catalog - hop over to my Facebook Page and say Hi while you're there!!!
