Z Fold Butterfly Card
A couple of night's ago was my card class. We had such fun stamping 6 awesome cards together. Here's one of the ones we made:

I got the idea from Ronda Wade and I love how it turned out. To fold the card base, you just fold in half like normal and then fold your front piece back. So simple and it makes for such a unique card!

Ink: Chocolate Chip Classic ink (100908)
Paper: Regal Rose CS (105130), Whisper White CS (100730), Chocolate Chip CS (102128), Apricot Appeal CS (105124), Welcome Neighbor Designer Series Paper Pad (118401 Sale-A-Bration)
Accessories: Beautiful Wings Embosslits Die* (118138), Scallop Trim Border Punch (118402 Sale-A-Bration), Chocolate Chip Sending Love Epoxy Brads* (117272), Snail adhesive (104332)
*Occasions Mini
This week is proving to be super busy. I had my card class; I'm preparing for my Stampin' Up! Garage Sale tomorrow and then I was asked by Stampin' Up! to demonstrate a workshop wow at the Regional Seminar next weekend so I'm busy making samples for that. I have to admit, I'm terrified to demonstrate in front of so many talented demonstrators…but, how do you say no to Stampin' Up!? lol.

One Kickin’ Party
This past weekend was my Sale-A-Bration (SAB) Kick-Off and we had a kickin' time!!! I really had so much fun!
We had 6 amazing and talented demonstrators who were part of our "Demonstrator Theatre". They each wow'd us with their amazing talent. Each booth hightlighted a set of products: Build a Bear, Cllng Stamps, Decor Elements, Chipboard, new punches & a make and take booth. Each attendee went from booth to booth to see the demonstrations. I heard so much great feedback on the demo theatre booths and really want to thank my amazing helpers! You ladies truly love what you do and it shows!
We had amazing samples shared on the share tables and in demo theatre! Alot of pictures were taken and tons of ideas shared!
We played a fun game of STAMPtionery. We had 2 teams, plus some very helpful easels! The ladies were given stamp set names and had to draw it while their teammate guessed. I allowed audience help and because I love to give out prizes BOTH teams won something!
AND more prizes…I gave away over $300 worth of prizes during the day. Our big draw was THE BIG SHOT and as you can see from the photos…this was a BIG deal! Congrats Michelle!




Lastly, the make and takes…we made 6 projects using the Sweet Pea Designer Series paper and Felt Pieces.


We have over 200 pictures of this event…if you're part of my team, you'll find the rest in our team gallery soon!
We've already started to plan for the next big event! You really need to join us! It's going to be a not-to-be-missed WEEKEND RETREAT in Westport, ON. Join us on the weekend of March 26th…find out more details at www.stampingirls.com
