Hey everyone! Welcome to my blog! I am SUPER excited about today’s blog post and I know that you are going to be as well! I have been extremely fortunate, thanks to my incredible customers, dowline, and family to have been able to run a sucessful Stampin’ Up! business for almost 10 years now! During this time I have been blessed to have been in the Top 100 Demonstrators group several times! Due to this honor, I have met some of the most AMAZING demonstrators from all over North America! These friendships have led to the treat that I have for ALL of you today and for the 15th of EVERY month here on out!!!
Our group of 13 incredible demonstrators is called the “Stampers’ Dozen”! We will have a different theme for you each month! So be sure to join us on the 15th of EVERY month for some projects that are certain to inspire you! Remember! There are 13 blogs for you to hop on through! Be sure to visit every one!
This month, our theme is tied in to the Olympics! We chose “Go For the Gold”! All of the projects that you will see on each blog is “gold” themed! At the end of each blog, you should find a next blog and a previous blog button so that you can be sure to navigate through ALL 13 of them! Be sure to leave comments for us too!
I have decided to create a project using our gold foil paper and vanilla cardstock. The project also features the stamp set “Chalk Talk” as well as some good ‘ol embossing to give it more flair!
