My First Video… Spring Retreat Highlights!

Alright, Ladies! Bare with me! This is my VERY FIRST attempt at doing any kind of video work, so be kind, lol! Actually… I think it turned out pretty good considering.

So this video is one big highlight of The Heartfelt Stamper's Spring Retreat Weekend. It's much too difficult to capture the excitement and energy in photos – putting a video together seemed to be the only way!

So the "Name Badge Runway…" yeah, what a HOOT wasn't it!?!? Oh my goodness I was in hysterics the entire time – never in a million years did I expect everyone to have THAT much fun with it!!! The whole idea of it was I mailed everyone a piece of chipboard  a couple of weeks before the retreat and they were instructed to use it in any way they wished to create a Stampin' Up! made Name Badge for themselves…

While, when they got there Friday Night little did they know how they would be used! Out came the Name Badge Runway and everyone took turns walking down it to music… Jen was in on it and brought a Black Boa with her… it saved the day and helped everyone to get into it! But in the process it just became so silly that there was no real judging of the name badges (our judges got a bit carried away with their number ratings as you could see in the video) so we ended up just drawing names for the winners, but EVERYONE was a winner!

I was much too busy laughing and videotaping to really focus on the name badges so did a terrible job at taking still photos… so I only have 2 to share with you, but here they are!

Heartfelt Stamper’s Retreat Weekend!

I am convinced that this year's Spring Retreat was the BEST Team Event we have ever had!!! It was so much fun, and SO much was learned by all.

We had 26 ladies attend – a record high!!! And people joined us from all over — long drives away, bus rides away and even plane rides away with our furthest attendees coming in from Florida!

It's nearly impossible to convey the excitement in photos, but I will try! Here is just a BRIEF look at the weekend. More in depth photos will be coming in the coming days and weeks! In addition, I'm working on a Video from the weekend as well… I'm just having technical issues getting the video camera to upload.

Lots more pictures and video highlights are coming SOON! Stay posted!

The tentative date for our next Retreat Weekend is October 22nd – 24th, so mark your calendars – we would love to have YOU there!! This next retreat is back to it's "old ways" and only open to Demonstrators on The Heartfelt Stamper's Team – so be sure to join today so that you can be there!!!
