Three little boxes….

Three little boxes arrived separately from Stampin’ Up! today. Each box held a pin that signifies a huge step in my Stampin’ Up! business. I love creating and working with SU products, but I also love the care and attention that SU gives to their demonstrators. The lovely notes at the top of the boxes brought a smile to my face and some tears.

This year was a big one for me in my Stampin’ Up! journey. The pin on the left signifies 15 years as a demonstrator. The pin in the middle signifies a personal title advancement to Silver Elite from Silver. And the last pin signifies my personal sales reaching $100,000*.

I have met so many people over my 15 years as a demonstrator – both customers and fellow demonstrators. I’m proud of my achievements in title advancement and personal sales. But I’m also so grateful to my customers who are now friends and the joy they bring me when they discover the love of creating. My fellow demonstrators are so supportive and we all want to help each other out. That’s a rare thing in the world today and I appreciate that kindness.

I look forward to the next 15 years as a demonstrator and the journey that it will hold. I’m off to attach these pins to my Stampin’ Up! apron. Remember that crafting is therapy and I hope you find some therapy in your life too. Thank you for all your support.
