Seminar & New Catalog!!

It's here - the new 2009 - 2010 Inspiration Book & Catalogue! Inside you'll find 11 new hostess sets, 32 new stamp sets and new double sided paper - just to name a few. I don't want to give it all away :o) You can get yours for just $5.00 and I'll even include a coupon for $5.00 off your first purchase!!


Plus you'll see my card (shown above) on page 39 - I was so happy to find out at seminar that one of my cards was featured in the catalog. I've added the specials for July to my sidebar so be sure to check those out. We have a cool arrow stamp of the month set and the frogs in the vintage set are just too cute!

Thought it would be neat to show you my name tag and ribbons showing my achievements as well as all the cool buttons we got at seminar. One of them was given to us by Mabelle and features that cute little fairy that I used on my card yesterday.

All those buttons remind me of my teenage years where it was cool to collect buttons and have them on your jean jacket...I'm still not sure how I'm going to display these now. Can someone tell me the cool way to do it!?!

The biggest surprise for me at seminar was to find out I won an award. I'm not the type of person to stand out in a crowd. I'm rather shy UNTIL I get to know you...once I'm comfortable then talking and such is much much easier for me. Anyway, getting up in front of everyone, walking across a stage and such - terrifying. But when my name was called for the Rising Star award - all I could think was 'holy cow, really, me, oh my gosh I'm getting a tiara'. Seriously this is what was going through my brain as I went on stage. I also have to tell you I'm not the beauty queen type but man it felt good to put that tiara on my head - does something special to ya and you definitely can't stop smiling!! So below is my tiara and star pendent as well as my certificate that I won.

If you are still reading thanks for hanging in there. I know it's a rather long post. I still have my seminar trades to share but will save those for tomorrow. I hope you have a great evening and thanks so much for stopping by!! I appreciate each and every one of YOU!!
