More free stuff from Onstage!

 I thought you might like to have a look at some more of the goodies we received at Onstage last weekend.   We were also given this fabulous tool holder during the day, it has pockets to put all those things like glue, snail, snips, and other tools to make crafting on the go easier.  I'm hoping these are going to be available to buy in the future as I think they would make a great addition to the Stampin Up! goodies we already sell.
These are the make and takes we got to do during the day, I haven't had time yet to finish putting them together but when I get a moment to do that I'll make sure to let you see the finished cards.  This is a great part of the day as we get to play with some new product, helping us to get an idea of the loveliness that's coming in the spring/summer seasonal next year.

I'll be back soon with some of the swaps I received during the day from my fellow demonstrators, so don't forget to check back soon.

Onstage

Welcome back! 
I've been experiencing some technical problems over at The Crafty Yellow Camper, probably I suspect more to my technical inability than the computer!! 
Hopefully I've managed to overcome them to let you know what I've been up to for the last couple of weeks while I haven't been posting on here.




I've been working hard around my day job to get ready for On Stage Local which is a twice yearly event that Stampin Up! hold and where we get to meet up with other demonstrators, get a look at some of the new goodies that are coming our way and get our hands on some new kit to have a play!

 This is the fantastic team that I belong to, and we had a blast in Birmingham.  The conference itself is only for 1 day, but I got to catch up with my fellow stampers and we had some lovely meals, lots of chat and a couple of overnight stays in a hotel..... no washing up or housework.....what's not to love!!!
 While we were there Stampin Up! lavished us with freebies, and as this year marks the end of their 30th birthday we were all presented with this fabulous keepsake box, which contained even more fabulous stuff!
 These are the stamp sets that I came home with, 1 was in my box, 1 was an all attendee give away, and 1 was my prize patrol.  All of them will be available in the new year, so if you like the look of them keep an eye out for samples, and new catalogue information coming after Christmas.
 We also got given this fantastic reversable canvas bag, it's really good quality and holds more than you would think, which is great as I'm not a travelling light kind of person!!

Also in the bag were these great notebooks, and some lovely pens, as I'm an avid list writer they maaaay get used, or they may get added to my stash of fabulous stationary that I can't bring myself to use!!!! How many of you are like me? I'm just getting round to using my patterned papers rather than hoarding 1 packet to stroke!

If you think that you'd like to join me next year in April for the next Onstage Local, drop me a line and I can let you know how you can join our team.  There are some fabulous offers that will be coming up in the next few months for new demonstrators, so if your Stampin Up! wish list is a long one, and lets face it who's isn't?! maybe you would like to consider signing up and getting some of that wish list in your starter kit?

That's all from me for now, but check back in later this week to have a look at some of the fabulous swaps from my fellow demonstrators that I bought back from Onstage with me. I have loads of inspiration to share with you.
