 I am so excited, as I am on my way to St. George Utah for the Annual Founder’s Circle trip where the top 100 demonstrators in the US are rewarded with a five day retreat.  Check out this amazing area of southern Utah!
 
 
These are the amazing ladies and one gentleman I’ll be spending the next 5 days with.
 
 
Here’s another exciting tid bit… my sister, Peggy Murwin who was my very first team member 11 1/2 years ago earned the Founder’s Circle trip too!
 
 
FOUNDER’S CIRCLE SPECIAL
 
I want to thank you all and celebrate with you, so while I’m gone to Founder’s Circle, from September 16th – September 20th, I will reward every online order of $50 or more with a free gift (of my choice) from the Holiday Catalog.
All you have to do is click the shop now button which will bring you to my online store. Then all you have to do is click on shop now along the top row and enter the items you want to order.  Be sure to enter Hostess Code YZ4P2Z3C and make sure you DO NOT click no contact.  If you do that I won’t know who placed the order and you won’t get your free gift.  If you have any questions on this pop me an email and I’ll help you out.
 
 
 
Mean while, here’s a card we made at my “Among the Branches”
class this week.
The background is the Woodland Textured Embossing Folder.  I then added the Spider Web Doily and a tag made from the Scallop Tag Topper Punch.  The stamped images come from the Among the Branches stamp set which is sold as a bundle with the Woodlands Textured Embossing Folder at a 15% savings. 
 
Be sure to check back daily as I’ll be posting about my adventures at
Founder’s Circle.

The Founder’s Circle trip is a trip awarded to the
top 100 demonstrators  in the US.  
 
 
 

I am mover the moon excited to be traveling to St. George, Utah for the Founder’s Circle Trip on the September 16th for an exclusive five-day, four-night retreat.  This all-expense-paid trip to beautiful Southern Utah will be filled with stamping (of course!), world-class shopping, scrumptious food, and an exclusive tour of the Stampin’ Up! manufacturing facility in Kanab, Utah. 


Southern Utah is surrounded by some of the most uniquely beautiful landscapes in the world (Bryce Canyon National Park, Zion National Park, and Lake Powell), this area of the country is famous for spectacular vistas, secluded coves, and dramatic deserts.

I plan on taking my computer with me and finding a little time to share my adventures with you all.  Thank you so much for your past and continuing support, you really have no idea how much I appreciate you all.

Fangtastic Halloween

Every time a new catalog comes out Peggy and I host an event for demonstrators.  Peggy and I design 20 cards and everyone gets to make all 20 cards.  It’s a fun evening and everyone goes home with new samples to share with their customers. This is one of the cards I designed and shared with my club members last Tuesday and then demonstrators got to make it Friday evening.
 
 
I started with a base of Tangelo Twist card stock which I embossed with the Arrows embossing Folder.  I then added the Happy Haunting Designer Series Paper.  The image and the sentiment both come from the Haunt Ya Later stamp set.  I stamped the vampire in Jet Black Stazon on Watercolor Paper and then used Aqua Painters to add the color.  The 3 tiny stars are punched out of card stock with the Confetti Stars Border punch and attached with our new Fine Tip Glue Pen.  If you don’t own this glue pen yet, put it on your list and get it ordered!  I’m telling you, it’s amazing and you will love it.  It dispenses just a tiny bit of glue and is easy to control and it sticks really well.
