Life sure has been crazy busy for me this past few months! So, I finally have some time to share with you one of the samples that I created for my presentation at Stampin' Up! OnStage in Minneapolis in early April. What is OnStage? It is a HUGE get together of Stampin' Up! demonstrators in regions throughout the world and allows demonstrators to get a sneak peak at some of the new products that will be released – Woo Hoo! It is truly an honor to be selected and to create samples for everyone to enjoy. The stamp set that I was asked to present ideas on was "Crafting Forever". So, here is one of my cards that I created – what do you think? You can place your comment at the end of this blog post – I would LOVE to hear them!
