Hello,
Hope you are having a great start to your day! This week, I’m in Raleigh North Carolina for the Stampin’ Up! Onstage Event. This three day event is for demonstrators! We will see new product being released from the new 2025-2026 Annual Catalogue, watch presentations, attend break out sessions, a welcome party and so much more.
This is my first inperson event since 2019 and seeing all my friends is like one big happy reunion! It truly has filled my bucket the last few days and just what I needed!
It was so good to see my friend Amy Combs from California and catch up on things!
Meeting up with more friends in the lobby, so great to see them and get big hugs!
I met Patty Bennett back in 2011 at an event and we have been good friends ever since. She has been a great mentor to me! As you can tell from our smiles, we were excited to see each other in person!
A group photo of some of my team members with Patty and I after dinner!
More group photo of friends while hanging out in the lobby.
The last picture is of my good friend Mary! We spent some time with her in Ohio and then started our road trip down to Raleigh. I met Mary at one of Stampin’ Up! event and we have been good friends every since. The best thing is that we network and share business ideas.
As I’m typing this blog post, I’m sitting in the lobby of my hotel and it’s buzzing with so many Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators. There is lots of laughs, smiles, hugging, swapping and chatting going on. It truly is good for the soul!
If you want to follow my adventure at Onstage, make sure to follow me over on Facebook at Stampwithanne.
Must go, it’s almost time for checkin, swapping, main stage and a welcome party!
Happy Stampin’
Anne
