Founder's Circle Day 1

I will be sharing all my Founder's Circle pictures with you for the next couple of days. I just returned home from this awesome trip I earned from Stampin' Up! This all expense trip is awarded to the top 125 Stampin' Up! demonstrators each year and I am very fortunate to have earned this honor two years in a row!!

Arriving at the Marriott in St. George we are greeted by the awesome Stampin' Up! staff and this beautiful sign!!

We arrived from the airport in this huge bus with only us 6 ladies on it. This is a great time to visit with ladies we have not seen for a while or we have just met.

AND look at these beautifully decorated doors to the Marriott!! These are Stampin' Up!'s Decor Elements and they were all over the hotel!!


Once arriving at the hotel we are offered lunch. They sure know how to feed us!!! Do you see that Dr Pepper in the background?? If you know me well you know that is one of my favs!!!!

After eating we headed to the Gathering Place. This is where you get signed in, receive your name badge, play a game and say hello to others that have already arrived. So much fun!!!

Look at all that candy!!!!! Stampin' Up! sure knows how to spoil us!!!

Here I am acting kind of goofy!!!

We were given a game to play, kind of like a get to know you game. We had to collect different colored butterflies and when we were finished we were given our very first awesome gift of a brand new stamp set that will be in the Occasions Mini that will be coming out January 5th, 2010. Too stinkin' cute!!!!! (I will post a pic of the stamp set in a couple of days)

Look at these beautiful chairs!! They had these and couches set up for us to sit, relax and socialize with everyone. Here I am with Robin and Stella (in the middle).

Heather and baby to be are loving all the goodies!!

Look at the doors to our rooms!! We each had our own name and the best part is these are our Decor Elements and they are removable!! I brought mine home and can't wait to get it up in my stamp room!!

Just look at the view from my room!!

This huge room was just for me!! We all get our very own room but none of us are in there except to sleep and shower!!

Lookie at this cute card my best gal, Robin, made for me!! She saved my birthday card and present to give me while we were here. What a sweetie she is!!

AND look at that loot she gave me!! Love her!!

After unpacking we headed out to the pool to catch up on some email but the Wi-fi did not reach all the way out to the pool so we just relaxed and chatted for awhile!! Look at our cute little NetBooks decorated with our Decor Elements!!

The first evening we have our welcome dinner. Everyone has arrived by now and we all get together for a wonderful dinner. Just look at our table setting!!

Robin and I enjoying our first dinner together.

And Shelli is right there with us all week long!! She is an amazing lady!!

Does that not look yummy??

AND that dessert!! Oh my!!

Robin was in heaven with all that chocolate!!

After dinner if you liked you could get together with the new Rising Stars and listen to how they achieved this awesome honor!! It was great to listen to this new group and see how they did it compared to my year last year. The numbers and the ways they all do it always differ so much so there is not an easy guide line to follow. Just do your best!!

After retiring to our rooms (around midnight) we are greeted by our very first Pillow Gift!!! This is the most wonderful thing!!!! To receive such awesome gifts from Shelli on our bed!!

This is another brand new stamp set that will be in the new Occasions Mini that comes out January 5th, 2010. We got to use this stamp set for our make'n takes we did while we were there. We also got some ribbon and markers too!!!!

Until tomorrow for day 2 pictures!!

Enjoy,
Tiffany
