You’re Brilliant!
I don’t normally share much of my personal life here on the Blog……but it’s been a bit of a crazy time here in our house these past few months and I haven’t had a lot of time to sit down and reflect. In order to fill you in, I need to prepare you for the fact that this will be a longer than normal post as I have lots to share! So grab a cuppa and sit tight! (those of you who follow me on Instagram and Facebook will already know about some of this!)
First of all, thank you so much for continuing to read my blog! I truly think it a privilege to be able to continue sharing my passion for paper craft on here with you all – your support is quite simply brilliant!
This year my eldest daughter completed her HSC – yay! This was out first foray into the world of senior Secondary study ……and I’m pleased to report that we all survived! My admiration for all those who sit through the rigours of such a mammoth undertaking (and also those who support them through it) has grown immensely.
These past few months have been full : we’ve had my sister visiting from OS, the launch of the Holiday Catalogue, an HSC music performance and 2 major works to complete, the HSC exams, Kitchen renovations, the Penrith Paper Craft Show to organise and then last weekend headed to Stampin’ Up! Onstage in Melbourne for the launch of the new Occasions Catalogue!
In between all of that I want to thank my fabulous Stampin’ Up! team, customers and blog readers for your continued support of my business this year! Stamping was definitely my therapy this year more than ever and it was great to be able to share what I love with you all. I truly feel that I am part of something amazing 🙂
My Stampin’ Up! Business
This year I have celebrated some special Milestones and achievements – all of which make me very grateful for the opportunity to be a part of the Stampin’ Up! family for the past 11 years!
In August I reached the 600K CSV Milestone (just over $900K) and in October I celebrated 11 years as a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator!
Here I am receiving my 600K Milestone Award :
I am also honoured to be among the group of Demonstrators who earned the 2018 Alaskan Cruise, in the top 250 Globally (#197 out of 50 000 Demonstrators!) in the Top 15 for both Sales (#8) and Leadership (#11) for my country and in the Overall Top 20 for Australia (#19)!
Stampin’ Up! is more than just stamps, ink and paper…….it’s a unique opportunity to build friendships and community as we collectively help others make a difference through our individual efforts on this creative journey. And the journey continues……..
Introducing the Stamparatus!
At our Onstage Event last weekend, we gathered to see the launch of the brand new Occasions Catalogue! One of the best parts of being a Demonstrator is that we get early access to the new products before they are available to customers!
I will be posting again later about all the excitement of Onstage (include pictures of sneak peeks from the new catalogue!)
