Convention 2014 

Convention is always full of ideas!  I come home with so many great new ideas and projects!  It is just one of the great ways Stampin' Up supports its demonstrators!  Here are two of the 'Make and Takes' we did this year.


There are boards and walls full of examples done with current products.  We also get some time for hands on stamping through make and takes and mini classes.  But all the fun ends eventually and we have to come home and put what we learned to use!  So keep an eye out for upcoming mini classes on the two beautiful projects above!  

Our last picture in Salt Lake City.  Trying to figure out what route to take home!




Even though we were short on time we decided to make the best of what we had.  We headed down a dirt road in search of the City of Rocks.  It was beautiful and definitely worth the dirt road!  




Hope you have been enjoying your summer!

Convention 2014

Convention is always amazing, but this year was a little extra special! 


This is my cousin Allison.  I have always looked up to her but even more so since she started at Stampin' Up!  I use to think it was so cool that she could work somewhere where she could stamp and craft all day long!  It wasn't until a couple years ago that I realized I could do it too! With her encouragement and inspiration I am now a Stampin' Up demonstrator myself and loving every minute!


This year I was extremely proud to be able to celebrate with her as she was chosen to be one of the 16 demonstrators chosen for the Artisan Team!!  Allison's work ethic is inspiring as I've watched her work hard to get to where she's at.  Allison is extremely talented and I am so excited to see what is to come! Yet, she still makes time to continue encouraging me and reminding me that if I want something, I just have to go get it!   



And then of course we got to celebrate at the After Party!  Stampin' Up knows how to throw a party!


There was good food and of course cute decorations!  There was even a country band with an electronic bull and line dancing!  It was a good way to end such an exciting day.  



Do you want to be part of the fun?  Join my team today!  Contact me at daveyjes@hotamil.com if you are interested in the Stampin' Up! experience and we can talk about the exciting opportunity!

Convention 2014

Salt Lake City always seems so welcoming to get bombarded by a bunch of stampers!



This was our welcome at the hotel we stayed at.  It's fun to see all the different people walking around, you always know who is from Stampin' Up! 


Our first morning I went for breakfast with some of my upline/ team and their friends.  Its so great to meet so many different people who all have the same passion!  We went to Rubys Diner, it was delicious!


Getting our bag is always exciting!!  Stampin' Up fills them with goodies to prepare us for our classes and make and takes!  Speaking of classes and make and takes... 




This is a class I got to attend and possibly a class I might offer so stay posted! 


And of course general sessions are always exciting! 





One thing I love about Stampin' Up! is that they care about others!  This is the service project I got to participate in this year.  I am blessed to work for such a caring company! 

If you'd like to see some of my goodies from Convention please come to my OPEN HOUSE Monday July 28th from 7-9 pm.  Please RSVP by Friday July 25th. I look forward to seeing you there!

Convention 2014 

Ah, here I am back at Convention.  So inspired by those around me!  And so blessed to be part of such an amazing company!

My mum and I left Sechelt Sunday morning and got to Salt Lake City late Tuesday.  Although it was a quick trip, we were still able to see some beautiful places.


We left Sechelt at 5:30am!  This was the sunrise that sent us off!


We saw so many beautiful places as we drove through the North Cascades.  


Mum and I did a self guided tour around the Malad Gorge.  It's a beautiful place!  The Gorge was amazing and the history around it was really neat to learn about!  

Stay tuned for more about Convention 2014 and some exciting new classes and clubs planned for the upcoming month.  

OPEN HOUSE:  July 28th 7-9 pm  Please RSVP by Friday July 25th.  Check out my goodies from Convention, sign up for classes, clubs and other events, do a make and take and of course there will be tea and goodies!  Hope to see you all there!
