Thank you for joining me today. I had an amazing time in Telford last weekend and I received so many wonderful swaps that I want to share with you today.
My upline Sam Hammond/Pootles held a Celebration Afternoon on the Friday and 50+ Pootler’s attended. A lot of the Pootler’s who were there were recognised for their Sales and/or Recruitment for January – March. I received a beautiful hand stamped card and gift vouchers from Sam for my sales.
Sam gave everyone a goodie bag that had pictures of the 3 cards we were going to make, more than enough cardstock to make the cards and a Clear Wink of Stella pen. After the recognition we spent the rest of the afternoon crafting, swapping and enjoying an amazing afternoon tea that Sam had organised. Geoff did some stamping with us too and he really enjoyed it.

On the Saturday I was so excited about OnStage that I got up at 5.30 a.m. The hotel’s restaurant opened early for us so that we could have breakfast before we went. There was only 4 of us in the restaurant, Emma was also going to OnStage and Dad her new husband of 9 weeks used to be a demonstrator too.
When we arrived at OnStage the lovely Amanda Charlesworth of Scrimpingmommy went to the registration desk for me and collected my bag. Inside the bag was the adorable Animal Outing stamp set, some pens, my name badge, a lanyard and a light box.
We were given a copy of the new Annual catalogue which goes live on June 1st, we were told about the colour revamp (there were lots of demonstrators who were shocked at some of the colours that are retiring) and we saw the new style ink pads and the 2018/2020 In Colors. By the end of the event I had a bag full of wonderful swaps, 4 new stamp sets, new ribbons, DSP and 4 make and take projects.
Below is a gallery of all the swaps I received last weekend, click on an image to enlarge it.
One of the other perks of going to OnStage is that we have a Product Purchase Premiere (PPP) which is a small selection of new products that we can purchase before anyone else. My PPP is being delivered tomorrow and you know I’ll be having lots of fun crafting with them over the next couple of weeks.
If you would like to get you hands on a copy of the new Annual catalogue and pre-order the new products a month before the catalogue goes live join my small team of demonstrators.by clicking here.
