We had two winners to this month's creative challenge which was to make a new bucket/basket for our door prize tickets. Congratulations Lisa and Jackie! They both won $20 to spend in the new catalog!

• Next Meeting Dates: September 12th, 6:00 PM- make and takes are $5. If you live long distance, add $3 for shipping and I will mail them to you! 
• August Business Challenge: Schedule a Fundraiser
• Creative Challenge for September: Halloween- anything goes! I will pick a winner who will win a Halloween stamp set form the catalog! Let's get lots of participation on this one!! 
• Swap Theme: Halloween- cards or treat holders

Door Prize clarification: It becomes very time consuming (making our meeting way too long) for me to give door prize coupons for everyone on the FB Live feed. But, I do want to include each of you! I am working on a way to figure that out. I do want those who participate in the live feed to play along, but we've got to find a more effective way of working that out. Stay tuned... :-)

Ok, that's it for me this week! Don't forget to get your Holiday Pre order in and start creating some samples for your customers to see as soon as it goes live on September 1st! And get that Holiday Catalog Kick Off event scheduled! The Holiday Season is HUGE for our business!!

Our theme this month was Birthday Fiesta! I had this fun surprise for everyone at the meeting. 

Inside I put new ribbon, doilies, ink spots, ink daubers, Dazzling Details, Stampin' Write Markers, Stampin Sponges, Binder Clips and lots more! It was STUFFED full! 

We  were all very calm about it until it broke open and then everyone turned into  8 years olds again, diving for the goodies! So funny to watch! 

 Here is what one lucky lady got.

 

Next, we had a nacho bar and Fiesta Birthday Make and Takes!

You can find the Birthday Fiesta Class Planner here.

You can find the Creating Success Class Planner here. 

Team Meeting Agenda and Business Training here. 

One thing we talked about was getting a link for direct payments to your Pay Pal account. The info can be found here: 

https://www.paypal.me

Next month, we will not have a regular meeting, but I am offering an all day Quarterly Training. 

All the details and registration can be found here. This event is open to all Stampin' Up Demonstrators. It is also available "to go" for all my long distance downline. 

And lastly, we had some great swaps!
