What happens at a Stamp It Demonstrator Gathering?

What happens at our Stamp It demonstrator group gatherings, stays at our group gatherings...unless we are learning how to use the Periscope App. My demo group is scattered all over the United States, and we connect every day on Facebook. Last night a small group of the local gals got together at my house from some stamping fun. One of our topics was learning how to use the new Periscope Live video app for your smart phone. What better way to learn it, then to do it lol. We actually had more of our demo group watching live from around the country, then were actually at the gathering, which was really neat. Check out the replay video and put faces with the names of the gals you see when you meet a few of the Stamp it gals. You've seen featured on my Facebook and blog hops. Including my Mom and most importantly meet Flash the beagle.
