I can't believe how fast April went by! It seems just like yesterday I was hopping on a bus to Red Deer, Alberta, after work for OnStage. This is a special Stampin' Up event for demonstrators only and it is loads of fun! Not only do you get to meet other demonstrators and hang out with your team mates, you are treated to sneak peeks of new stuff, craft with new stuff and go home with new stuff! It's such an exciting event and one where I feel special and recognized. It's thrilling to see others accomplishments and celebrate their successes. It was also extra special because it was SU's 30th anniversary!
Everyone received a reversible tote bag with a planner and stamps - naturally!
Inside the bag was also a fun surprise - a light up letter box. Fuuuunnnnn!
I learned a lot of new techniques just by swapping with other demos. My favourite tip from OnStage was to fill a plastic baggie with embossing powder, stamp with Versamark and then dip the piece of paper into the baggie to coat. Using embossing powder has always been a little scary for me because I just picture glitter getting everywhere. My favourite part of the event was swaps. I just loved coming home with new ideas and my swaps were well received. I remembered to keep one of each for myself.
I can't wait until next year!
