SU Convention Day 2

Here are some more pictures from the second day at Convention. I hope to get through all 900+ pictures of Convention for you this week!!! AND I am not kidding when I post 900+!!! But that is actually down a few hundred from last year!!!!

Here is a picture of myself with Mary Polcin. I have actually nicknamed her "Million Dollar Mary" because at last year's Convention she was honored on stage for being the very first Stampin' Up! Demonstrator to reach a million dollars in sales!! That is such an achievement and I hope to make it that far someday with my sales!!! AND Mary is also one of the nicest ladies you will meet!! She actually paid me a complement right before this picture was taken and I about fell over myself!!! She said that I help her out with my scrapbooking ideas because she struggles with that part of the business. I was like "ME??" Thank you so much Mary and it means the world to me that you can take inspiration from my scrapbooking layouts!!

We are in General Session just waiting for everything to start. I love looking around at all the creative things people are showcasing. Here is an awesome banner someone made out of our Pennant Bigz xsl Die. What a great way to let your friends know where you are sitting!!!

Here I am with Connie Babbert. We are both on the Late Night Stampers Design Team and are members of several other Yahoo Groups. I just love her work!!! She is one talented lady!!


AND look at this AWESOME hat this lady was wearing!!! She actually made it using our Big Shot!!!! Love it!!

Here I am pictured with the non other Sherrill Graff, group mom on Late Night Stampers Yahoo Group. She is the sweetest and kindest ladies you will ever meet!! If you are not yet a member of this Yahoo Group go HERE and join, it is FREE and open to anyone (demo or non-demo).


These ladies were honored on stage because they are the few demonstrators that have been with this awesome company since it began 20 years ago!!!

Look at Robin and I walking on stage for our very first Milestone!! Stampin' Up! not only recognizes their top demonstrators they also honor demonstrators for their career to date sales and time. Since I started with Stampin' Up! back in July 2006 I have had sales totaling $100,000 plus. For each $100,000 in sales you are recognized on stage, receive a check for $1,000 and a Milestone Pin with a red diamond on it. Now that I have reached my first Milestone I will be going for my next Milestone of $200,000 in career to date sales and will receive again the recognition on stage, a $1,000 check and another Milestone Pin but this time it will have two red diamonds on it. Stampin' Up! also recognizes you for how many years you have been with the company. So for every 5 years you get to walk across stage and receive a pin stating how long you have been with the company. I am going on my third year so I have a little bit of time before I reach that first walk.



I mentioned above about Mary reaching a million dollars in sales in her lifetime with Stampin' Up! last year well this year we had one other lady meet this awesome goal, Lisa Fast. Congratulations girl!!! AND if you can't read this huge check they gave her let me tell you it reads $10,000 made out to Lisa Fast!!!! WOOHOO!!!!

Is he not the cutest thing ever?? We have partnered with Build-A-Bear and will be coming out with our own exclusive stamp sets and dies for our Big Shot with our brand new Holiday Mini that will start September 1st!!! With this huge announcement Stampin' Up! had little bears made up for us with the Stampin' Up! logo, Stampin' Up! apron and a cute little stamp attached to the bears hand. Too cute!!!!

AND Build-A-Bear himself came out to visit us!!!!! Sooooo exciting!!!!

Now Convention would not be Convention without swapping and that is what we did at lunch. This one is an organized swap we did with a Yahoo Group I am a part of called SSUS. This stands for Sensational SU! Swappers.

Look at all that loot I ended up with!!!

And here is a group shot of those SSUS ladies that were at Convention.

That is all I have for day 2 of Convention. Check back for day 3 and 4 later.

Enjoy,
Tiffany
