Convention Fever!

Yep! I caught it!
Pre-Convention I considered myself a "hobby demonstrator"... not putting too much thought into it. In fact, the ONLY reason I even went to convention was to get away from real life and just enjoy some stamping fun with a few of my fellow Crazy Stamping Ladies (that's the name of our group of Stampin Up Demonstrators) Well, one of the classes was on workshops and sharing what we love. I absolutely LOVE stamping... the whole point of signing up to be a demonstrator was so that I could get my fun stamping product at a discount. I've never had a workshop before but I HAVE done competitions before... especially when there were prizes involved! So at this workshop class, they announced an awesome new hostess promotion AND put forth a little competition. SO I sat for a few minutes browsing through the new catalog but I just couldn't stand it... I love competition! So I started making phone calls and sending text messages to a few of my friends and guess what? They said "YES"! SO it looks like I will have to do a few workshops now. At first I was nervous, but now I'm super excited! The theme for convention this year was "Share What You Love" and at my workshops I plan to do just that!

My hostesses are going to be happy they said yes too! Here's a quick look at this great promotion:
