Two days of fun!
I volunteered as a helper on Friday for the Product Playground. All attendees got to ‘play’ with the Big Shot, Arrows embossing folder, the Feathers Framelits dies, the Gift Box Punchboard, Blendabilities, the Under the Tree heavy weight patterned Designer Series Paper and of course stamps and ink!! They also played a game where they had to stamp and draw while blindfolded with some very interesting results and then everyone got a little prize! Plus in between all this, they had a chance to win more prizes! It was great fun and no one knew until the ‘playing’ was finished what the Make & Takes were going to look like. Here they are…
A Chevron gift bag all decorated up, a Gift Box made with the Punchboard using the Under the Tree DSP, two cards – one stamped with Four Feathers and coloured with Blendabilities and the other die cut and layered with embossed Coastal Cabana cardstock and Typeset DSP.
Saturday morning I attended the business class presented by Dale Hampshire, manager of Stampin’ Up! Canada. It was informative and humorous. (Dale’s impression of a rapper with the microphone was hilarious!) Saturday afternoon was a party complete with a game show, prizes AND more Make & Takes. These were a surprise again as we just created parts of the projects at 6 different stations and then at the end, put them together.
We used the Gift Box Punchboard again, circle dies and the Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlits to create some Halloween projects. It was hard to photograph the curvy box which was fast & easy to make and so cute!!
If you have a chance to attend one of the Canadian conferences, sign up now – don’t miss out!
