So excited!

I'm so so excited to be a Stampin' Up Demonstrator! I'm getting ready to get my business kicked off with my first workshop coming up on August 8th! I am wanting to open up my workshop to everyone out there as well....hmmm maybe a little order incentive (FREE STUFF) will be happenin'?? I'll ponder this and get back to everyone. I am also getting ready to get back on Meet Up and run my own group again. I need to think of a name for my Stampin Up Workshop Group....any ideas? I'll be posting some cards from my workshops soon! I'm working on them now...getting so excited about new stamps and new projects! I should have my Meet Up group started by August 1st if anyone is interested, check back then. I will be holding a Meet Up workshop once a month, probably in the first week of every month.
Can't wait!!!!

My First Workshop and Baking and Pastry

So, my first official Stampin' Up workshop will be on August 8th. I'm so excited! I created 2 cards for make n takes. I'll post those when I can. I love all the new colors like the Tempting Turquoise, Melon Mambo and Daffodil Delight. Those 3 are fabulous together, just awesome summer colors! Check out this cool color tool on the Stampin Up site HERE.

I'm already into my 6 month of school, can you believe it?! I'm in the 4th semester class, Baking and Pastry which is about 6 weeks long. Tomorrow will be the end of week two. It's been so fun so far. We have a great class and we all work well together! This week we've been making things such as pastry cream, fruit pies, quiches, frangipane, apple pear tart and eclairs! Tomorrow we will fill our baked eclairs with some yummy hazelnut cream. I will post some pictures of that! Eventually I will post a link to all my cool recipes I'm learning. The soft pretzels were great!

Thanks for stopping by! Hugs!

New Stampin' Up Demonstrator!!!

That's right! You heard it here...I just signed up to be a Stampin' Up Demonstrator! I've been pondering this awesome opportunity for quite some time now. I decided that every month that I attend my Meet Up group, I LOVE to get out my adhesive and put together a cute homemade card that has gorgeous complementary colors and matching paper, inks, and embellishments. I have so much fun stamping, making cards and making new friends! I decided that in my spare time (between going to culinary school) will be my ME time! My time for growing my Stampin' Up business. I've been thinking about this for a year now so I'm glad I finally "took the plunge" :)
So, without further ado...Here is my "official" Stampin' Up website where you can purchase Stampin' Up products from me 24/7!

I look forward to posting new card ideas and project ideas using the latest and greatest Stampin' Up products! Keep an eye out for a NEW Meet Up group I'll be starting in the Rocklin/Roseville/Lincoln area where you can attend a monthly workshop and make cards for a real low cost!

Hope to get to stamp with ya soon! :)
