The end of Day 3

 Each Day there is a Plinko board at the Gathering Place and we get Prizes.  Today I got one of the Letterpress Fancy Fan!  Can't wait to play with it when I get home!  See the purse in the back ground.  My purchase today at a cute shop in downtown Kanab.  I guess you can say it's from SU, because I used the Gift card I earned from my Great Reward points that are one of the amazing perks I receive from being a SU demonstrator!  All of this is available to YOU if you are willing to join SU and Share what you love with others!

 Our Pillow gift tonight after returning from the Tuacahn Amphitheatre was this OMG CUTE Apron made out of SU Fabric!  LOVE IT!

 This is the flower that is on the pocket and it is removable to use as a pin.

 It was all folded up in this small box that is for the small dies for our big shot, of course it was decorated and tagged! 

Day Three Founder's

 Shelli (CoFounder and CEO of Stampin' Up) and Me at Kanab facility.  She has an amazing apartment upstairs that is fully furnished for her, her family and others that need a place to stay when coming to visit the Manufacturing facility.

  

I have been blessed to have taken the tour before but this one is the best yet.  One thing is to see how happy the employees are to work for such a great company.  Other is that from year to year see the growth.  Which in this day and time that is not usually the case.

 We were taken to the park for lunch.  This park was redesigned by donations from Stampin Up!.  It is a beautiful park with the mountian in the background.  We were served lunch in these CUTE baskets.. A yummy assortment of fresh veggies and fruit, along with potatoe salad and a turkey sandwich.. I'm talking like the turkey that make those great after thanksgiving sandwich kind of turkey. 

 On the spot Creme Brulee' served along with other yummy deserts, like keylime pie, cheese cake and Chocolate.  It was one high class Picnic

 Tags were handstamped (of course)

 A beautiful day, mid 80's and sunshine

Pillow Gift from Day two

 Each night on our bed is a pillow gift, We get gifts all day long but it is like SU Santa is here to leave us yet another treasure.  Inside this popcorn bowl included an invite to the Disney's "The Little Mermaid" Live show at the Tuacahn Amphitheatre here in St George Utah. 

We have just returned from yet another exciting day... Stay tuned for all the news later this evening.

Quilts and More

 Today warents Two post... possibly three.. I am off to our business share and card swap in about 30 minutes.. so you might want to stay tuned.  But today my Friend Patsy and I went to Susan Adams' Stamp room!  OMG  You just can't image.  She not only is a Stamper but a Quilter.  She and Janet Baker design quilts together and make them.  This one has her Grand Children's name on the stockings.  The stockings are cut with our Big Shot and then new Stocking Die found in the Holiday Mini

 This is Janet on the left.  She was the 2nd Demonstrator to sign up with Stampin' Up! back in the Day.  It was such a joy to listen to the beginnings, growth and trials to what we enjoy today.

 Me showing you the cute Witches Shoe filled with Chickletts made from the same Stocking Die/Altered.. Can't wait to share this with you all in Person.

Day two Founder's 2011

 After a long wonderful  breakfast out side by the pool with my old friends and new ones, we entered the "Gathering Place"  It has changed since last night.. Grown over three times in size and furniture and candy for us to just sit and hang out. 

 Today's Treats

 Love Yogurt parfaits especially with fresh fruit. 

Fresh flowers everywhere!

 As we entered the Gathering place this was what caught my eye first...Yep Cupcakes.. Notice the "today's " special.. Wonder what tomorrow's special will be?

 These are the girls that made it all happen  Cut fun apron's

 Several different varieties of pillows thrown around on the furniture and all made with SU's new fabric!  AHHHMazing!

 This food was better than we have ever had on the Cruises so you know it was delish!  Steak wrapped in bacon topped with something yummy, Mashed potatoes and gravy, Steamed veggies and a slice of watermellon.

 Then topped it all off with Cheese cake... and it was banana cheese cake with carmeral I couldn't eat it all I should have brought it back to my room cause about NOW is when I really have room for it.  Oh well.. I KNOW there will be more fabulous goodies tomorrow!

Back in the room, on my bed was this box, this is one of the small boxes for Big Shot Dies.  Inside the box is to be announced later... I have to keep it a secret for now, but 

YOU know I will be sharing.

Day one at Founders 2011

If you are my face book friend you probably saw some pics posted there.  This Pic is at our Dinner on Wednesday evening.  These other ladies are on the outside of the window of the hotel that was right outside of the dinning area.  So I pulled my chair out there to have some "tea" with them.  Stay tuned here and on Face book for more of what is going on.
