You make me happy

I was so thrilled when I saw the Hexagon Hive Thinlits Die in the Occasions catalog.  I’m like you, I love things that coordinate, and the fact that it coordinates with the hexagon punch and the Honeycomb embossing folder thrills me to pieces.  For this card, I used the thinlit cutout over a piece od Designer paper.  It’s simple and sweet.

I had a wonderful time at Leadership, but I’m ready to be back home and get creating new projects for club, classes and camps.  While I was gone, I was running a drawing for all those who either commented on my blog or emailed me directly to tell me why they enjoyed my blog.  I threw the names of all those that participated in a hat and drew out a name.
 
 
The winner of the “Vivid Vases” Stamp is ….. Jill Trumpy. Woo Hoo!
 
I have another prize give away.  I am giving away the “Hello, Sailor” stamp set to the person with the most creative response as to why you like my blog. 
 
 
And the winner is Vicky Heimbecker!  Congratulations Vicky!
 
here is Vicky’s reason she likes my blog:
 
Hi Tina:
I read your blog every day… it’s part of my log in routine! I love the cards
you showcase … many for the fact they are easy to re-create. While I love
elaborate cards, I don’t have time for putz. I especially love (and have
adopted) your favorite layout.

 
So Jill and Vicky, please contact me to claim your prize.
 
And finally a card for me to share with all of you.
 
 
This is the card I made for an organized swap I participated in at leadership.

Leadership Day 3

Comments: 0
As quickly as it came, it’s gone…Leadership that is.  It was a busy fun filled 3 days of creating, sharing and being inspired. 
 
 
We each received 2 stamp sets today, one is from the Occasions catalog called Language of Love, the other stamp set, I had to hide in the photo, because it’s a new one that will debut in the Annual Catalog in June and we’re not allowed to show new product until it’s available. 
 
They also gave us all Salt Lake City’s famous salt water taffy as they announced the dates for The Stampin’ Up! Convention which will be held in Salt Lake City July 17th-19th.  They announced some really big news that every new demonstrator that has joined since July 1st, 2013 and that will join through the end of registration for Convention get’s their registration FREE. 
That is a $250 – $300 savings!! That is also unheard of!
 
If you’ve been thinking about joining my team (and seriously why wouldn’t you want to join my team of awesome ladies) now is the time to do it! 
With Sale-a-bration just around the corner it is one of the very best times to join and you can get your convention registration paid for! 
Can I hear a woo hoo?!?
 
Contact me when I get back and I’ll answer any questions you have! 
 
Also don’t forget I’m giving away the Vivid Vases Stamp with a drawing.  Times running out to get in on it!
Here are the details:
All you have to do to have your name entered in my drawing is leave me a comment below (or pop me an email) letting me know what you like about my blog.  I will throw your name in the drawing and I will draw one name (on Monday the 13th) from all the responses I get.  The name I draw will receive Vivid Vases stamp from me. 
 
Get creative with your responses because I’m going to give an extra gift for the most creative response.
