There are so many amazing new products coming our way in the

SPRING CATALOG from Stampin' Up!

If you are a demonstrator, you've already seen this amazing new catalog online or maybe even in your mailbox already!

Thought you might like a sneak peek of 2 new punches..

 

can you spot the 2 new punches?

We got to use these new punches at the Founder's Circle Retreat in September..

and I thought you might like to see how I creatively added them to a current project.

Holiday Tic Tac Punch Art craft project

click to: Shop Online anytime with Patty

click for info: free adhesive in October

--------------------------------

While I was in UT in September, I was excited to join Susan Adams and Janet Baker for an afternoon of stamping.. this adorable Snowman Tic Tac holder was one of the cute projects we made... such a fun Punch Art Craft project to do with kids or any crafter this holiday season!

The "wrapper" is the Two Tags Die, and of course the snowman is created with punch art using lots of different punches.  I thought the ticket punch was adorable for the hat!  Color the Basic Pearls with a sharpee marker for the black coal buttons. (similar to coloring rhinestones in this video)

My friend Cindee is offering some of these cute projects on her blog as a kit...

visit her here to order yours if you would like a kit.

Here are a few more of the samples Susan and Janet had on display:

Fabulous Fall Card ideas from Founder's Circle

click to: Shop Online anytime with Patty

click for info: free adhesive in October

--------------------------------

One of the highlights of our Founder's Circle trip each year is to swap with 125 (+/-) of the top demonstrators in the company... I thought you might enjoy some of the wonderful Halloween and Fall card samples I received in the swap!

These 2 great cards were done by Denise Sullivan and Lynsay Mahon

Denise used the fun Toxic Frameable kit download with My Digital Studio.

look at the pretty sparkle on Lynsay's card!

I am guessing that she made a reverse mask and sponged Lucky Limeade on the cardfront and then spritzed it with Smooch Spritz or a mixture of Shimmer Paint and alcohol in the Stampin' Spritzer. Lynsay used the classic French Foliage stamp set in Basic Gray.. what a great look!

I have one last post for you with fun photos of my AMAZING week at the Stampin' UP! Founder's Circle Retreat.. then it's BACK TO STAMPING tomorrow!

 We were set up into groups on the first night, our group was Crane's Beach, and these were my fellow group members:

L to R: Diane, Tamye, Cindy, Patty and Aly

We are soooo spoiled on this trip.. this is a photo of the gifts I came home with ... believe me, packing was "creative" on the last night!

<< On our PJ Party Share and Swap night, I was asked to give a presentation about YouTube and how my videos have helped my business.

Below: 3 of the dearest people ever.. Sara, Mom Pat and Shelli:

Do you love this.. I had this little fabric tote and I added a fabric flower from Cindee to my tote... this was perfect for my cell phone, snail, camera and essentials while staying at the hotel.

How about this for a fun teaser... I'll show you how to make these flowers another time.. Cherry Cobbler Tulle gathered and heated with the Stampin' Up! Heat tool! (these were on Selma's apron)

I LOVE making new friends... this is one of my dearest friends Ruth (right), and our new friend Catherine.. what a SWEEEET lady!! 

 LEFT: our dearest friend at the Marriott, Carolyn

RIGHT: I love getting an annual photo with Shelli!

On Friday, we rode the bus from St. George to Kanab (about 1-3/4 hours) and toured the Stampin' Up! manufacturing facility there.. so exciting to see new changes!!

Below: My upline, Sandy and I at the Stampin' Up! Rock in Kanab

above and below.. our day trip to the Stampin' Up! manufacturing facility in Kanab, UT

we had a yummy BBQ lunch with the employees in Kanab!

Below.. CUTE thermal totes with our meal after the Glen Canyon Colorado River Float trip:

I will have ONE more Founder's Circle post later this week featuring our SWAP NIGHT activities.. but we'll be back to stamping ideas tomorrow. 

Thanks friends, for coming on my Founder's Circle journey with me this past week.. hope you enjoyed the photos!

September Customer Coupon & Special

See below for my Founder's Circle Special!!!

--------------------------------

Each year on our Founder's Circle Trip we are treated to a most amazing "event'.. we never know what it will be, or where, but this year the Event Staff DELIGHTED AND AMAZED us with a float trip down a 3 hour portion of the Colorado River!!  We launched right below the Glen Canyon Dam at the base of Lake Powell, and floated for 3 hours (insert singing here... "a 3 hour tour, a 3 hour tour") :) down Glen Canyon on the Colorado River!!

The photos speak for themselves.. God's amazing handiwork shows at every twist and turn on this river!

We launched right at the base of the Glen Canyon Dam.. Lake Powell is on the other side of this dam.

We went over this bridge above the dam to get here... the Glen Canyon Dam Bridge is 700 feet above the river... wow!!

Behind the dam is Lake Powell.

The water comes from the bottom of the lake under the dam and into the Colorado River.. so the water is super cold.... 47 degrees!!!! 

The weather was warm - in the 90's - but the breeze off the water was delightful as we moved..

Below: Stella and Ruth and I .. the sun was pretty brutal for us fair skinned girls, so the hats were necessary!

stay tuned tomorrow for more fun!
