Everyone says the friendships they've made through Stampin' Up! are the most valuable part of their lives and I have to agree! A lot of really, really cool things happened this year and I have lots to share with you, but I am going to start with my friendships.


Plus, she is so helpful to me...she makes sure we safely cross the street, she listens when I'm not, she takes pictures for blog friends who stop to say hi, she tells me when it's time to go (cuz I have a teeny tiny talkin' problem!), she plays nasty tricks on me that are very embarrassing, she carried my Founders Circle bag for me all week ... ok, more on those two later. *Ü*


Stampin' Up! is full of creative people, but I gotta tell ya...I think my friends are some of the MOST creative. Here I am with Lorri Heiling one of my very dear friends.

She brought me an Inking Idaho mug full of coffee beans and three of the most beautiful Gerber daisy pens you've ever seen. This picture does not really show how pretty they are!! Amazing talent in that little tiny body of hers! Love ya Lorri!!

A couple of my other friends Jennifer and Ronette have joked for years that they should start a Drinking Idaho spoof blog...like what my tutorials look like after a few drinks and laughs...but I have never really thought of a Drinking Idaho mug!! Hmmm...may have to start selling them. Ü




My friend Connie Collins was another Artisan Award winner this year! Out of 40,000 demonstrators, thousands of them try out for Artisan Award but Stampin' Up! only chooses 10 winners...what were the odds that 4 of my friends made it this year! So cool!!! Congratulations Connie!
Becky! I can see you had a great time with friends. Good. You deserve it after so much work and share your talent thru your blog. I didn't make it to convention, but hope one day I can. Congratulations!

It sounds like you had soooo much fun- an experience that won't be forgotten. Your "Paparazzi" friend sounds like a hoot! Love the flowers and flip flops too! Glad you enjoyed yourself!
ReplyDeleteOh!! It looks like you had SOOOOO much fun there! Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteWell it looks like fun was had by all!
ReplyDeleteI live in Hawaii, so flip flops are a norm here. But these rubbah slippas, as we call it here, are so darn cute! What a wonderful idea.
TFS and warm hugs.
Awesome photos!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat company made your mug?? It's SO cute! I'd love to have a blog mug of my own!!!
What a sweet post, I love you and can't wait till we get to hang out at Founder's Circle...I think we need to get our BFF's on a stick...so they can join us....
