Animal Outing Stamp Set by StampinUP & More People Pics Thru the Years!!

 For this card, I used the Animal Outing Stamp Set &
the Animal Expedition Designer Series Paper.

A group of stamping customers and friends from WAY back!
We had card class, and celebrated my Mom's birthday in Galesburg, IL.

Jenny and Tina acting silly after a card making class
in Knoxville, IL.  Those were the days!!

A Stray Ducklings Demonstrator meeting in Peoria, IL.
If you live in Central IL, are a demo, and would like to attend sometime
please contact me for a schedule.  We are a close-knit group, but we also
take in "strays" who might not have an active upline to teach them.

Awe...... here I am with my buddy Julia Jackson or
J.J. as I like to call her!  I miss her like crazy since she quit
being a StampinUP Demo and moved away from Galesburg  : (

 
I hope you have enjoyed my walk down memory lane the last couple of weeks.  I have shown you some old photos from my 19-year StampinUP Career.  It's been SO fun to share pics  : )  I have a FABULOUS
group of friends (both customers & demos) that I never would have met if it
weren't for this awesome hobby & past time we all share!!  I AM TRULY BLESSED!!
Also, a big THANK YOU to my Blog Followers......Stamping Hugs- Lori

Let’s Have Some POP w/ a Little ROCK N ROLL! (Pop of Petals Bundle by StampinUP)

 Please scroll to the bottom of this post to view the You Tube video w/

Stamping classes are fun.....you should consider joining us sometime!

Terry M., myself, and Bonnie A.  (PIC#2)
This was taken in Morton, IL at a Christmas Card event.



I'm having fun browsing thru old photos from my 19-year StampinUP Career so........

stamp together when they can!!  The first Thursday of the month, we
make cards at the downtown Peoria Library.  (Contact me for more details).

Pic#2.....Terry on the left is from Peoria, IL and used to be a StampinUP demo.
Bonnie on the right, is still a StampinUP demo and waiting to serve you in
Washington, IL where she holds very fun classes and card buffets on a monthly basis!


Well, the end of July I will celebrate my 19th year w/ StampinUP!!  Yes, its hard to believe but I started with this fabulous company on July 30, 1999.......WOW-- what a fun adventure it has been!!  I think this calls for a "SPECIAL OFFER"- don't you?

  • You will have from July 19th until July 29th to place a minimum order of $75.00 (before tax and shipping).  Anything from the current StampinUP Catalog.

  • If you go over slightly, we can just add that to your total bill, so you don't have to worry about getting exactly a $19 item.

Lemon Zest Stamp Set.....Life's Short-Live It With Zest!! (More Pics from the Archives)

Card Swap by Jen H. of Princeton, IL.
She used the Lemon Zest Set along with the Eastern Medallions Thinlits.
 
Here is the side view of this circular card.
Jen even stamped the back!

Lynn F., Myself, & Jenny T.  (2 gals from Galesburg).
We LOVE to go to Stamp Camps in the area! (PIC#1)
 
 This really old pic was taken in Galesburg, IL with demos local to that town. (PIC#2)
Many of the SU Demonstrators shown have long since dropped, but some of us are persistent!!

This picture brings a few tears, but need to show none the less. (PIC#3)
Nell Grohs and my Mom, Evelyn Lievens (they were friends long before stamping)!!

 
 I'm having fun browsing thru old photos from my 19-year StampinUP Career so........
Pic#1....This particular Stamp Camp was held in Farmington,  IL.
We same 3 gals are going to a similar event in Canton, IL this coming Saturday for all day!
If you are interested in something like this, please let me know & I can keep you in the loop.

I think Julia Jackson took the lead on this event, and we had a couple as I recall.
(J.J. is smack dab in the middle of the back row- MISS HER SO MUCH).
Pic#3.....Taken at my Mom's house in Knoxville, IL.
She always hosted a Christmas Party for a great group of stamping friends.
Sadly, Nell (sitting) has passed away and my Mom no longer stamps due to health reasons.

I'm showing some old photos from my 19-year StampinUP Career so here is one from 2015 (Salt Lake City).  From Left to Right.....me, Bonnie, Shannon West from SU, and Nancy.  Our shirts say:  "You can't buy Happiness, but you can buy StampinUP which is pretty much the same thing.....(and I say it's true) !!

Well, the end of July I will celebrate my 19th year!!  Yes, its hard to believe but I started with this fabulous company on July 30, 1999.......WOW-- what a fun adventure it has been!!  I think this calls for a "SPECIAL OFFER"- don't you?

Here are the details for my 19-Year Anniversary Special......

  • You will have from July 19th until July 29th to place a minimum order of $75.00 (before tax and shipping).  Anything from the current StampinUP Catalog.
  • To qualify-- the orders must be placed thru me and not my on-line store.  (309-221-5241)
  • Or email:  stampinfool2006@yahoo.com
  • As your FREE gift from me, you will get a $19  SU item or items that you choose yourself!!
  • If you go over slightly, we can just add that to your total bill, so you don't have to worry about getting exactly a $19 item.
  • Again, spend $75 and get $19 for FREE which calculates to about a 25% savings!!
  • The Host Code Free Gift below is not valid because you will be getting the $19 Gift instead
  • THIS ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL IS ONLY THRU LORI HELVICK AND ENDS AT 10 PM (central time) ON JULY 29th!!
Since 1999, I have truly appreciated everyones' business and local class attendance, and viewing my blog etc etc.  First and foremost though,  the friendships over the past 19 years are what its all about for me!  I just can't imagine my life without StampinUP and the people I have met because of it.  Thank you SO much, and Happy Stamp-a-versary to me.....Lori
