Demonstrator Training Blog Hop - July 2023

Monday, 10 July 2023

I'm excited to be training with Bruno and Kylie again this year and participating in our monthly Blog Hop with amazing Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. The purpose of the group is for the group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators that are part of the program...to share ideas and to learn from each other...to help us in our Stampin' Up! Business. Our theme for our blog hop each month is "Thank You".

My thank you card this month features one of my returning favourites in the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue - Petal Park! I love this punch bundle. Check out the pretty colour combination of Parakeet Party, Pool Party and Lemon Lolly. We were challenged to use this combination to create a project on our recent Creativity Abounds Fresh as a Daisy Stamp Camp. Love how this card turned out!

Place an order with me in July and one of these pretty cards will be on its' way to you!
