These little  buttons that read “10 in 2010” were handed out to us at Convention this year.  They had lots of them in various colors.  I guess I wasn’t paying attention so I had to ask someone what they meant.

And this is what I found out – that Stampin’ Up! set a company wide goal to recruit 10,000 new Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators in the year 2010.  I asked if I could take some extra buttons home for my downline and they said sure!  So I grabbed some extra ones and when I got home I decided I needed to present them in some fun way.

While we were at convention we had the opportunity to get a new stamp called “Share what you love”.  I got mine luckily on the first day because after that they sold out quickly.  I used a portion of the stamp for this tag for my button.  Share what you love is exactly what it’s all about.  I used the two-tags die and my Big Shot to cut the tags and added the button on the scalloped end.   If you have ever considered joining Stampin’ Up! as a demonstrator I would be happy to answer any questions that you have and would love to have you be a part of my team.

Shelli Gardner, Co-Founder and CEO of Stampin’ Up, commented at convention about changes happening in the company.  And on her blog this week she said “As we move forward, I anticipate making changes that are more visible to our demonstrators and customers, changes that will make it even more fun and rewarding to be involved with us! So stay tuned. . .”    I’m excited to hear what’s coming and I hope you are too!

And now it is time for Monika’s BLOG BINGO!
