VIDEO TUTORIAL: Flower Garden Shimmer


Posted on July 30th, 2011, no responses.

flower-garden My video tutorials are back! After breaking my thumb in a motorcycle accident (click here for details) videos had to get put on hold for a few a little while. I’ve missed them! This video was filmed before the accident (what a nice looking right thumb!) for my stamp club last month. I’m finally able to get back to both filming and editing (yeah!!!).

I LOVE this card, it’s so pretty. Along with the new Flower Garden Impressions Folder, it also sports some “shimmer” and a fun label technique. My stamp club members also get photo/written instructions for this and all of our exclusive club projects, along with the video. Click here for more info on my clubs >

stampin-up-in-colors1Teresa Howe made this super cool cards to show of Stampin’ Up!’s new In Color collection. She shared them at our Stamp It demonstrator meeting this week. She did one card in each of the new in colors: Pool Party, Calypso Coral, Lucky Limeade, Wisteria Wonder and Island Indigo* (I missed taking a picture of Island Indigo, sorry). Teresa used sponge daubers (102892) to apply the color to the background, she embossed the Fabulous Florets stamp (123025 wood, 123027 clear mount) with White emboss powder (109132) and used the new Houndstooth impressions folder (123134).

Stamp It Demo Meeting Fun


Posted on July 22nd, 2011, no responses.

p7216936Last night was one of my favorite nights, my Team Stamp It demonstrator meeting! It was also a convention recap, my friends Dawn Gutro and Tami Morken spoke about their convention experiences. You could almost feel, and catch, some of the excitement we felt being there. It was not our traditional demo meeting in that it was sooooo hot in my meeting room that we opted to hang outside inside until it cooled off a bit! So fun!!

Another fun part of any stamping event is swapping. At the meeting we not only swapped our own cards, but we swapped “swaps” and got to see what everyone else got for inspiration!! And I loved that our group is growing, it was fantastic to meet the new members of our family and share together.

Since my group is spread across the United States, not everyone can attend. I will be posting photos of many of the swaps (and 600 convention displays) on my group website today. If you are interested in joining my group, for inspiration and to save on stamps (maybe earn some extra $$) hurry and jump in while the July special & free gift is still on…it ends on a week: www.stampwithtami.com/demonstrator.php or contact me at tami@stampwithtami.com

A Taste of Convention


Posted on July 19th, 2011, no responses.

stampin-up-approved Trying to describe Stampin’ Up!’s annual convention to people, is like trying to describe the Blue Man Group experience. No matter how much you see of it in stories and pictures, there’s nothing like actually being there. The energy level, and the excitement! And it’s everywhere, when we go out, stampers are there…and even if you don’t know them (yet) they are friends…a sisterhood of traveling stampers lol! I got a kick out of this restaraunt’s sign out front. They were truly getting in on the buzz…”Best burgers in the city, Stampin’ Up! approved!”.stampin-up-door

It seemed everywhere we went, we were welcomed with signs from the local businesses!

My friend (and downline) Liz Miller, made these super Stinkin’ Cute “convention survival” kits!! It was to die for. It was all I could do not to eat the candy in it, but I didn’t want to ruin the pretty package.

Convention Excitement


Posted on July 18th, 2011, no responses.

2011-stampit My favorite part of going to Stampin’ Up!’s annual convention is seeing everyone! I get to see gals in my demo group that don’t live close, and sometimes this is the only time we see each other in person. Every year I look forward to new gals in the group coming and joining the fun! Speaking of newbies to convention, there was a march on stage for convention First Timers and I think I heard over 1/3 of the attendees were there for the first time. That is just plain AWESOME!

One of the highlights of this convention was walking across stage with 3 members of my demo group for recruiting!! Congratulations to Dawn Gutro, Liz Miller and Oksana liz-on-stageSemenska!! I’m so proud of you gals!! I wish I had a photo, sadly, along with being great recruiters they were also the photo takers in the group hehehe. Here is a group shot of us all at dinner.

My friend Liz also got to walk across stage for her 5 year anniversary with Stampin’ Up! Wow, we’ve been together 5 years, and she still loves me…imagine that!! LOL! I love bragging on them, and I can’t help posting a picture of her up there on stage. I’m a proud momma.

If you are interested in joining Stampin’ Up, there’s still 2 weeks left on this great special (click here) and you can come to convention with us next year!!!! Or email me at tami@stampwithtami.com.

2011 marked my 5th consecutive year in the Top 3 of the company for sales. Along with this, I was able to share a moment on stage with some of the gals who topped the sales charts this year in the company. What an honor!  This year also marked a milestone for me, I hit $600,000 in Career Personal Sales (in 7 years!!). Shelli Gardner (CEO and Co-Founder of SU…and all around amazing lady) actually called me at home to congratulate me when I hit this milestone. WOW!!! That was a pretty fantastic feeling.

#1 Demonstrator of the Year - WOW!!!


Posted on July 18th, 2011, 28 responses.

I’ve just returned home from Stampin’ Up!’s annual convention, and still all I can see is WOWOWOWOW!!! BEST CONVENTION EVER!!! If you’ve been following either my Facebook, and/or Stampin’ Up’s Facebook for convention highlights, you heard this on Awards Night…if you missed it…
stampin-up-demo-of-the-year-announcementI was named Stampin’ Up!’s #1 Demonstrator of the Year for 2011 (US)!!!!!!!!!!

OMG!!!!!!!! WOW!!! It is an honor, and truly amazing feeling. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! To all of my demonstrator group, my customers, my stamp clubs gals and of course my family for all of your Stampin’ Support!! You made this possible. I LOVE YOU!!!

founders-circle-bagI think it’s finally sinking in, it came as an unexpected shock. Let’s start at the beginning way back to last week when I checked into convention online. It notified me I had won an award, and that I should go to the awards booth when I arrived at convention, it did NOT tell me what I had won. That was exciting!! And honestly, I was worried…I was still pretty bruised and banged up from the motorcycle accident and I thought I might need to buy a new long sleeved, high collar dress to hide all of the marks lol! Great news, amazingly most of it had faded, only a few war wounds were still visable and I am almost fully recovered (broken thumb still a work in progress). When my mom and I arrived, we made our way to the awards booth and they announced that I had earned a spot in the Top 100 Demonstrators of the company, called Founders Circle!!! I received this amazing FC bag. Just learning that I had earned a spot in Founders Circle was exciting…and of course they still don’t tell you exactly what spot you’ve earned. We anxiously awaited awards night for the news.

stampin-up-demo-of-the-year-announcement21There are 3 categories that the Top 10 Demonstrators in each are recognized - Sales, Recruiting & Leadership…I’m soooooooo stinkin’ excited to announced that I ranked in the Top 10 of ALL of them!!!! Holy cow!! Then the Top 100 Demonstrators of the Year are named. The DOY (Demo of the Year) is overall performance. As they were counting down my nerves started to kick in the lower the numbers got. My mom was next to me and we were squeezing each others hands so tight we lost circulation with anticipation with each name. My friends Cheryl Flynn and BJ Peters were across the aisle from me and when they called the #2 DOY (which was me last year) and it wasn’t me…we ALL lost it…my friend Cheryl came running over, we all were shaking and crying…it was very emotional. And then I realized, I still had to walk up to the stage. I wasn’t sure if I could pull it all together and everything was a blur after that. all I can say is WOW!!!

stampin-up-demo-of-the-year-announcement1

And this is just the tip of the convention excitement!! Stay tuned this week for more.
