Lakeshore Stamping

Milwaukee Regional & Sneak Peek

I attended the Milwaukee Regional on Saturday along with 7 of my favorite stamping friends, my downline!  For 6 of them it was their first ever Stampin' Up! event and they loved it!  I knew they would!  I was so happy when they announced the Milwaukee Regional, I knew it was something my downline could attend. We had such a wonderful time and I am SO glad they were able to attend!

We all love gifts and it is a tradition to have a little something for your downline and/or roommates.  I made each of them a few gifts that were waiting for them on the table when they arrived.  I want to share with you two of the three gifts I had for them.

Starting on April 1st, customers will be able to order some items from the Summer Smooches line which will available in the upcoming catalong on June 1st.  As a demonstrator, I was able to pre-order them in March and I wanted to share some samples with my downline.

This card uses three new items from the Summer Smooches line. 

The stencil is the Summer Smooches Decor Stencil and will be available April 1st-April 30th, it will not be carried over to the new catalog in June so get it while you can!  The Designer Series Paper is one pattern from the Summer Smooches Designer Series Pack available also available April 1st and will be in the new catalog.  The yummy ribbon is the 1/2" Daffodil Delight Seam Binding Ribbon which will also be available April 1st and in the upcoming catalog.  The greeting "Happiness" is from the Loving Thoughts which is available now in the Occasions Mini Catalog.  I really love this greeting set!

This is the CUTEST purse EVER!  I couldn't believe how much chocolate I could fit into this purse!  It was super easy to put together too!  I can't wait to use this Petite Purse Bigz L Die more as it will be carried over to the new catalog.  Contact me now to book your April Private Class at your home or my Lakeshore Stamping Studio!  I would love to show you and your friends more of these wonderful products!

I have a very special friend I meet 7 years ago named Tara.  She was in scrapbooking way before I was and has been on top of the scrapbooking world ever since.  She is a huge inspiration to me and our styles are so much alike which makes me smile.  Tara keeps me up to date on the scrapbooking world which helps me out.  In February I applied to be a Workshop WOW Presenter for the Milwaukee Regional at the last minute.  Tara helped me create the finished product and I was so thankful.  I was lucky enough to be able to have her come along to Milwaukee with me as a guest and be there for me when I presented the project we created together. 

I am looking forward to sharing with you the project I created for my Workshop WOW presentation in the next few days. 

I am thankful to have such great stamping friends which makes up my Lakeshore Stamping Team!  We are growing together and it is so much fun!

 

 

Wonderful Downline Members

I have a great group of downline members who I've enjoyed getting to know because of Stampin' Up!  Most of them were customers of mine before they signed up.  I enjoy hearing from them and helping whether they are a business demonstrator or hobby demonstrator.  I am just glad I get to share it with them.

Every couple of months I make a special card and send one to each of my downline.  I currently have 28 in all my levels so it usually takes me a few days to get the cards out once I design it.  I know how much I enjoy getting a hand stamped card in the mail and I know they do too!  I usually try to use new product and sometimes even a different technique. 

This is the card I made for them this month...

I sometime forget about vellum.  I love the softness it gives to anything is lays over.  In this card I used our yummy Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper that anyone can earn free for placing a $50 order!  It is one of the BEST DSP's we've had yet...even better that it is free!!!!

I pulled out my heat tool and used white embossing powder to emboss this great image from the Elementary Elegance stamp set, which you can also receive free, on the vellum cardstock. 

I hope my team of demonstrators loved receiving this card as much as I loved creating it for them.  Yes, I do write a little something in each card too for them!  Hand stamped and written means so much!
