First of all, I have to share some super exciting news with you....
I am
delighted, honoured and humbled to have been ranked at the
#23 spot in
the Top 50 Demonstrators in Canada
and at the
#192 spot in the Top 250
Global Demonstrators
(out of approx. 50,000 Stampin' Up! demonstrators worldwide)
WOW!
Along with earning the Grand Vacation to Alaska,
I've also earned top Leadership, Sales and Recruiting
with my business this year - AMAZING!
None of this would be possible without the members in my Serene Stampers team and my customers - so thank you all, from the bottom of my heart!
These achievements are especially sweet to me because, as some of you may recall, I had to put my Stampin' Up! business on the back burner a couple of years ago, due to some life circumstances and heartbreak I was going through. Last Fall I was ready to climb back in the saddle, set my goals and worked hard to rebuild my business - and I'm so happy I did it!
The beauty of being a part of Stampin' Up! as an Independent Demonstrator is the flexibility of this business. You have the choice to work as little or as much as wish, and to fit your life around it. My Stampin' Up! business has brought so many blessings into my life that sometimes I'm just at a loss for words. It has literally changed my life and I'm so grateful. Who would have thought that by sharing my love of stamping with others that I'd create a full time career, earn amazing vacations and bonuses, and best of all, form life-long friendships!
If you'd like more information about becoming a demonstrator, please

more about the Stampin' Up! opportunity!
Back to the OnStage event! What is "On Stage", you may ask? OnStage is an exciting event designed to bring Stampin’ Up! demonstrators together. Stampin' Up! holds OnStage events every April and November in North America, South Pacific, and Europe. These events coincide with the launch of our annual and seasonal catalogues so we can see all of the new products before anyone else (definitely a fun demonstrator perk!).
At OnStage we....
- Meet new demonstrator friends and reconnect with our dear friends we haven't seen in a while - for me, this is one of the BEST parts of On Stage!

Our dinner event was held at the Grand America Hotel - wow, what a place! There were four of these MASSIVE chandeliers in the ballroom. Just gorgeous. |
Jason Hewlitt was our keynote speaker/entertainer at the Centre Stage dinner event and we were delightfully surprised to find out he was also a presenter at our Centre Stage training. You can find out more about Jason here - he was awesome!
- And lastly, one of the best things about this year's OnStage Live event was the new "Stamparatus" reveal!
Everyone went CRAZY and rightfully so when the Stamparatus was revealed during OnStage - this new placement tool is fantastic!!!! I was part of the L2L team (Leader to 2 Leader) that helped develop this tool and I can't say enough about how cool the Stamparatus is!
