Our final day at Founder's Circle!! What an awesome fabulous trip this was this year!! Got to see old friends and make a ton more friends!! Nothing gets better then this!!
A group of us chit chatting at breakfast that led into lunch!!Patti, Dawn, myself, Ann and Tami
Everywhere you looked there was welcoming messages for all of us!!
And we had several babies join us. Is she not the cutest thing??
And desserts everywhere!! 
Really loved our door art that we all had on our doors to our rooms!!
And of course we very carefully removed them and took them home with us!!
What a goof ball I am!!!!LOL!!
And Robin too!!!
Here I am with Heather. She is an amazing women from Canada. I loved meeting her because I am a BIG blog stalker of hers!!!Check out the Decor Elements behind us. Stampin' Up! decorated the whole hotel with our lovely Decor Elements!!
I also met Linda whose blog I just love and she also has an awesome stamping school.
Glenda is getting lessons on how to do her own You Tube videos from some of the masters of videos. Can't wait to see what videos Glenda puts together!!
Here are a bunch of ladies in the Gathering Place stamping away with Shelli.
And others, Deb & Patti, working on their computers.
Lookie here I caught Ruth on the phone!!!
Here I am with Jodi. I met her at last years Convention during Awards Night. I had no one to sit with in the Founder's Circle section and ended up sitting next to her and her downline, Karen, the year I was named the #1 Rising Star and Karen the #5 Rising Star.
Look at these fabric flowers that everyone was making while we were there!! Shelli had demonstrated these on stage at Convention. While we were there some ladies ran to a fabric store and brought back tons of fabric for us to try our hand at making one.
Look at all those fabric pieces!!! AND yes our Big Shot cuts them out perfect!!
Here Robin is cutting out our pieces so we can get started sewing.
Some new Rising Stars this year working on their own fabric flower pens.
I am actually sewing!!!!
Here is Missy showing off our wonderful boots we got the night before. Is she not the cutest thing ever??
Before we went to the Gathering Place where we were making our fabric flower pens we had headed out to the mall for some shopping. While passing through a book store we spotted some Twlight merchandise. We noticed they now have a stamp set for this movie and we all know that our adorable Glenda is the #1 fan of Twlight so we decided to purchase the stamp set for her (this is the ONLY time you will see Stampin' Up! Demonstrators buying a competitors product!!). We decided to wrap it up and give it to her on the bus to our Farewell Dinner.
She had no clue what was in the package and was wondering why she deserved a present from us. Well Glenda you are an awesome lady and love each one of us Demonstrators like your own!!!
Now just look at her!!!! It just puts a huge smile on your face when you can surprise someone like this!!!! We all love you Glenda!!!
She was like a little kid at Christmas time!!
She is such a nut too!!! She is totally in love with Edward!!
Shelli and Sara just had to see what Glenda was so excited about!!
Having fun on the bus to our Farewell Dinner, location unknown!!
Robin and I
Utah is just beautiful!!
Once arriving at our secret location Robin just had to do some of her famous posing for the camera!! She is a hoot!!
Myself, Robin, Ruth, Martha and Kari
So many photo opportunities!!
Dawn and I. This place is just gorgeous!!
Just look at our table settings
Shelli welcoming us to our Farewell Dinner
We all had these boxes at our tables. Shelli asked us all to wait to open them until she told us to.
She finally told us to open our boxes and look at what was inside!! She wanted us all to open at the sametime so our butterflies would all fly out together.
Some flew off but some decided to stay around and visit for a while.
Are they not beautiful?? And perfect for our week long theme of BLOOM.
We wanted a picture with Glenda showing off her stamp set we bought her. The gift was from Tami, myself and Robin. I can't wait to see what Glenda does with this awesome stamp set!!
Here Shelli is opening her box of butterflies. One of them did not want to leave her!! Kind of how we all feel about Shelli!!!
Just look at our view from our dinner seats.
This place was just geagous!!!
Robin and Kim Peck
This lady was a real sweetie to me when I first arrived at the airport. We along with Susie Wook talked the whole 2 hour trip to St. George. What an amazing lady she is!!!
Catherine, Jessie, Jen and Robin
We were all out on the lawn waiting for the sun to go down.
Is this just not beautiful?? I would love to see this every night!!!!
After dinner the UPS man came in looking for Shelli. We were all just buzzing!!!
After our wonderful evening that we all hated to come to an end!!
Back at the hotel I just had to snap some pictures of the wonderful Decor Elements that Stampin' Up! put up for us all over the hotel.
I believe this one is my favorite of the two of us!!
And our very last picture with Shelli!!!! This is the only one I got of myself and Robin with Shelli and just look at Robin!!! Hopefully Robin got a good one with her camera!!!!
After that awesome evening we all head back to our rooms to pack and get ready for leaving the next day and look at what was waiting for all of us!! Another pillow gift and this one was totally awesome!!!!
Just look at what was in that cute little box!!! PERFECT!!!!
I added these charms to my necklace I got last year from Shelli.
And then I decided to pack. I didn't know how I was going to get everything back home!!!!
I also met Linda whose blog I just love and she also has an awesome stamping school.

After dinner the UPS man came in looking for Shelli. We were all just buzzing!!! This big box was marked Confidental all over it and Shelli asked if we wanted to see what was in it. Well of course we all yelled "YES"!!! She said before she could open the box we had to put our cameras away so there are no more pictures after this until we are leaving to go back to the hotel. What to know what was in the box??? Well we got to see the boards of all the stamp sets that will be in the Occasions Mini coming out January 4th!!!! Belive you will LOVE each and every one of them!!!! AND the best part of this is that we all got to pick one to take home with us that evening for FREE!!!! I just love this company, Shelli and the awesome staff!!!! Now we did have one condition though and that was we could not reveal any of the stamp sets that will be in the new Occasions Mini except the two we got at Founder's Circle. This third one is suppose to be kept confidental so my lips are SEALED!!!!!
