    What an amazing year I've had, When I heard the trip this year to earn was to FIJI, I was so excited. THen they said, if you dont earn FIJI you can have at least Hilton Head. Well, I succeeded in earning Hilton Head and refuse to stop there, I am going for it. I am sooooo close to earning FIJI that I can almost taste it and its soooooo YUMMY tasting. LOL
    I have accomplished so many new things this year and I am amazed that will all that I have had going on in life, at home, at work and with my stamp business that I have succeeded in so much.
    SO, here is the deal......
  I am offering that anyone who orders $25 either online or from me starting today May 29th and repeatedly until June 30th will get to choose a free retired stamp set from my collection. Also, in addition, anyone to place a $50 order will go in for a drawing for $50 pick your own from me. I will give away 1 prize every week for the next 4 weeks and if you dont win in the first week, no worries, Your name will carry over every week until its done.
    I will be holding the first drawing on Wednesday June 6th and every wednesday there after until the 4th one. Actually the last one might be a little later cause its the final draw, I will wait until June 30th to draw that one.
Thank you all for your support in my business.

New Catalog Preview

I am very excited about the online preview that I got for the new catalog. Its gorgeous as ever. I pre ordered all of the new In colors and some select product that we were allowed to choose from. So, I'll be making some samples with them soon and you'll start seeing them here. Come back to visit in a few days and you'll see some of the samples. Until June 1st, that is all I can show you for now.
I will have the new catalogs in hand soon to distribute. I ordered 10 cases so if you have not joined one of my clubs or my new in color club then take advantage now, My club members and hostesses will be the first to receive the new catalog and then I will go from there until I run out. Anyone attending events or placing orders will be next in line and so on and so forth. With any order in June you will get to take a catalog for free immediately. So, I am starting to form new clubs starting June 1st and I have the new in color club that will be starting June 1st. Contact me if you have any interest.
Until next time. Have a great day.

HILTON HEAD EARNED

I have succeeded in earning the  Hilton Head Getaway trip, However I'm not stopping here. I'm continuing on to earn FIJI. One way or the other though I have earned a trip. You can only earn one or the other so WHEN I make FIJI I will go there instead but if I dont make FIJI then I'll go to Hilton Head. Either way, I owe it all to my fabulous customers and incredible downline. You are all a great asset to my business and I want to thank you.
I also earned a bonus, FIRST TIME EVER with Stampin Up this quarter. In my entire 9 years being with Stampin UP',  I have never earned a quarterly bonus and this past quarter, I DID IT. Again with the help of all of you. But, let me tell you, this was not easy, it was alot of work. Being a demonstrator and a full time employee of Fletcher Allen Health Care is extremely alot of work. Cutting late nights, prepping cards/projects to wow all of you. Its time consuming. Prepping for events is harder but, I LOVE WHAT I DO!!!!!
Then on top of all that I have been taking care of my dad. This past 3 months were difficult with all that was on my plate and I still can't believe I did this. Dad has been quite sick and in and out of hospital and nursing home. He will not be coming home from the nursing home this time and it saddens me, but also relieves me of some responsibilities that I can't handle anymore. He has become alot of work for me to do alone so I had to say that I could not do it anymore.
Thank you all for your support and keep watching, I intend to start posting more regularly, still not everyday because I'm quite busy but I will post as often as time sees possible.
Have a great day.

upcoming events

I have a couple events that I want to give you dates for. One is Feb. 19th for a card buffet at VFW in Winooski at 12:30, there will be an email coming out for this soon. There will be more buffets but I gotta find a spot to hold them.
THen I am planning a big event in June. June 30th. THis is going to be good. Its from 9 am to 4 pm and its going to cost $75 per person but you get lunch(buffet style), a stamp set and 4 make n takes and some demonstrations, then you will have a chance to win prizes and the first 15 rsvp's with payment will be getting a special gift from me. We are donating profits to Juvenile Diabetes and will also be doing a raffle to donate the money as well.
Details to follow, Email me if you are interested and are not on my mailing list already. I will be posting the event details here too but an email will be sent with registration form and flyer.
Hope to see you there.
Hugs
