You know when you smile and laugh so much that your face hurts? That’s what kind of day we had on Thursday at Day 1 of the Leadership Conference. We started out the morning by picking up our new Leadership bags. They’re really pretty Smoky Slate color with a Chevron pattern embossed onto the front. Then we went to general session where Shelli (CEO and Co-founder of Stampin’ Up!) challenged us to some goals. Easy peasy piece of cake! That will earn me up to 3 new stamp sets. They made an announcement and we got to see some brand new products that will be available sometime before the end of March. They are alcohol based markers called Blendabilities (similar to Copic markers only better because they come in our colors). These will be available sometime before the end of March…I can’t wait. We saw a couple new stamp sets, one of which they gave everyone who attended that is specifically for demonstrators. They really spoil us at these events. We had great business building classes in the afternoon and in the evening everyone who holds the title of Manager or above was invited to attend the Managers reception.
Stampin’ Up! reserved the entire Downtown Aquarium just for us. We had awesome food, fun rides, wonderful interactive displays. We rode a train through an underwater tunnel where all kinds of sharks were swimming right above us. It was amazing.
At the end of the night we all got a fun shark t-shirt and another stamp set.
Speaking of stamp sets…don’t forget I’m giving away the Vivid Vases stamp set in a drawing of everyone that leaves a comment on my blog or emails me as to why you like my blog. I will also choose the most creative answer to win another prize.
I’ll post again tomorrow with more fun from day 2!
I'm so jealous of your fun Shark t-shirt. LOVE IT! And those new markers sound to die for!! Can't wait to get my hands on them!! Hope you have a fantastic time.
