Well … the 2016-2017 Annual Catalogue Launch Event has come and gone … and it was a wonderful day to create a range of cards using many of the new products from the latest catalogue!
… and it was definitely an indoors-type of day … lots of rain and dreary looking outside … but inside was filled with lots of laughter from a wonderful group of eight lovely ladies, many of whom I have worked with and others I am fortunate to have come to know … all of whom I call friends …
On arrival, each of my guests were given their personalised
…’bag of tricks’ for the day – catalogue, eight project packs, a treasure hunt and a bonus activity sheet, wishlist and catalogue guide …
… and then it was time to start working through each card station … each table was set up to complete two of the projects.
… there was also a display table of some of the new products – DSP, punches, embellishments and ribbons, stamp sets … and a display stand with many of the new framelits/thinlits and some samples …
This is my first attempt at a ‘selfie’ – my daughters will be appalled …
There was even a mini PRODUCT PLAYGROUND for the Popcorn Box … an extra project for anyone who was interested.
Have I told you that I had an awesome day too …
especially with all the goodies giveaways drawn during the day – washi strip under the Stampin’ Up! logo on the grid paper sheet, raffle ticket draw – tickets given out when projects completed-prodcut names used-helping others … treasure hunt and bonus prizes … and the lucky door prize …
The Launch started at 10 – eight ladies, eight projects, laughter and lunch … all over by 3.30 … I was up for more crafting!!
