I am so sorry to have been MIA since last Wednesday, but we hit the ground running early in the morning for OnStage and by the time I was back to the hotel room I was wiped out! So much to experience and so many people to catch up with since the last time we gathered a year ago. The 2025 Annual Catalog was revealed along with the 2025-2027 In Colors, stamping demonstrations featuring new products coming our way, achievements for 2024 were celebrated, and evening events for gathering and stamping together filled the days.
Pool Boy and I are currently in the northeast corner of Georgia with friends in Cherry Log. It was pre-Covid since the last time we visited their home and their family! We are planning to head home on Wednesday of this week, so I may not be back posting until Thursday. We were so very fortunate on our Raleigh to Cherry Log drive with the weather – missing the horrible storms that swept across the states – but I know many travelers were caught with postponed flights, unexpected layovers, and driving issues due to the weather. Here’s hoping our return drive on Wednesday will be uneventful and smooth!
The best part of any Stampin’ Up event is always the opportunity to reconnect with friends. It’s those friendships that truly are the shining part of our stamping journey. Having those chats – no matter the length – leaves a warm spot in your heart, a pep in your step, and fills your cup with warmth and joy. I met ladies in person that read my posts on this website, others whom we’ve connected through social media only – SO NICE to put a face to the names now! – and still others from our years of being part of Stampin’ Up. Stampin’ Up truly is bigger than you and me. We are building a community, supporting others by crafting from the heart.
Until next time, whether tomorrow or when we return home, God Bless!!!
