We had a blast in Salt Lake City the past few days for Stampin’ Up!’s On Stage Live. This event has taken the place of conventions we’ve had in the past. Peggy (my sister) and Katie (my niece) and I arrived in Salt Lake about noon on Thursday and the festivities started about 2:30. We got the brand new catalog that goes live on June 1st. It is AWESOME! Everyone I talked to was really thrilled with it and I’m sure you will be too. Sorry, though, we are not allowed to post pictures of the catalog until June 1st.
The most special thing happened on Friday morning… Every year Shelli Gardner (the Co-Founder of Stampin’ Up!) and Sara Douglas (her daughter and CEO of the company) choose one demonstrator of the 50,000 + demonstrators world wide to receive the most special honor bestowed by Stampin’ Up! It’s called the Heart of Stampin’ Up! Award. It is awarded to the person that embodies what Stampin’ Up! stands for. Someone who loves what she does and shares what she loves, while making a difference in the lives of those around her.
They choose from all demonstrators that were nominated with letters written by their peers, customers and team. Shelli read a few excerpts from different letters that were submitted and then she started to read one letter that made them choose this years recipient. My sister Peggy Murwin was chosen! No one is more deserving of this award than she is. I am so proud of her.

This is the beautiful necklace she got.
We’re looking forward to the next On Stage this November. I’d love to have you come along with us as the local event in November is in Madison WI and 4 other locations throughout the US. Consider joining our Stampin’ Express Community!
