Happy Stampin' Up! Anniversary to me!
Stay tuned TOMORROW for a BIG BLOG CANDY GIVEAWAY!!!
Wow.. it is truly amazing to think that I have completed 18 years as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator!!
This weekend I start my 19th year with this amazing company!
I became a Stampin' Up! Customer in 1993 or 1994 (can't rmember for sure) and then signed up as a demonstrator in June 1995.
What an amazing journey it has been for our family. Jason was only 4 when I signed up .. he has grown up knowing Stampin' Up! colors, products, policies and enjoying the cruises.
I can't imagine my life without Stampin' Up!
My hubby and son have been a HUGE and constant support and my biggest cheerleaders!
If you would like to start your own journey with Stampin' Up!, I'd love to have you join my Luv 2 Stamp Group and enjoy discount shopping on your crafting purchases! CLICK here for more info.
Here's a litle trip down memory lane..
Who could ever forget all the sunflowers and Definitely Decorative Branch... one of my all time FAVORITE stamp sets!!
And Nellie the Nest Lady... Betsy the Beekeeper..
a couple OLDIE projects....
and Holiday Hannah.. again, .. she was one of my FAVES!!
My flower garden always makes me very happy, so I cut myself a bouquet to celebrate my Stampin' Up! Anniversary!

What fun to see you, your family and all those catalogs from so long ago. Your family is adorable ~ now and then !! The early catalogs had such cute stamps. Some of those should be in the "Best of" series. Thanks for sharing.

Congratulations on 19 years. I bet you have seen a lot in that time. My question to you and I am sure others are thinking it. Have you kept any favourite sets from each year? What memories and friends you have made.

noone could present a tour down memory lane like you have...CONGRATS!! 18 yr. & another 18 (??) to go?
Posted by: Susan Mac Donald | June 22, 2013 at 08:58 PM
Patty,
Congratulations on your SU! Anniversary. I was first introduced to rubber stamping somewhere around the same time you were~isn't it interesting how much the industry has changed since then? I remember that period of time and the style at the time was somewhat country theme (for lack of a better word) inspired. That pic of Shelly is how I remember her looking at the time, when she and her sister founded SU! Thanks for the walk down memory lane:)

Congrats on 18 years! Quite an accomplishment! I'll be sure to check back tomorrow for your celebration.
I was a demonstrator way back also, although I didn't stick with it for too long. Some of those old catalogs look very familiar!

Happy Anniversary, Patty! August would have been my ten year anniversary if I didn't drop for one month. But I would not have met you if I continued with my old upline. God works in mysterious ways.

Congratulations Patty! How neat to see those old Cattys I love the raggedy dolls, bird houses and English garden stamps!
Posted by: Patricia Willey | June 23, 2013 at 03:57 AM
Happy Anniversary. When I read your blog I feel the love you have for SU. That' a lot of years.

Congratulations Patti, on your SU anniversary, what an accomplishment you have achieved! Love looking at the old catalogs and picture of Shelli and family too! You haven't aged a bit in all those years either!!

Congrats. I still have a stamp set out of one of the first catalogs. its a cute little clown holding a balloon. My favorite set out of the new catalog would have to be Wetlands.

Oh my, did this post bring back memories:) I started stamping using SU products about 1997 and you know the rest of the story. I remember some of those stamps. SU has come a long way, baby:)

Happy Anniversary, Patty! Love the sweater!
Posted by: Chellie B | June 24, 2013 at 12:31 PM
I'm embarrassed to say I still have some of those stamp sets....they're antiques, now, right Ü
You've been such an inspiration all these years! Thank you for that!
