I’ve been a demo since 2003 and this was the first year I earned the Stampin’ Up Incentive Trip. I could not have been any more thrilled! Thank you so much to everyone who helped me earn it! I totally love and appreciate you! Two weeks later I received an email telling me the trip had been cancelled due to Covid. Stampin’ Up has demos from all over the world that wouldn’t have been able to attend. Many of us were very sad, as you can imagine. Steve and I will be doing something special with the cash pay out I’ll receive. I will still get some fun “pillow gifts” next May that I’ll be excited to show you as soon as I get them. 🙂 Below is a picture of me just moments after finding out I had earned the trip. My sweet friend and team mate, Barb, arrived at my door with balloons, telling me she just promoted to Silver Elite. That gave me the rest of the points I needed to earn the trip.

I made this Congratulations card for a friend who just became a Grandma for the first time. How exciting! Here’s a Live Video showing all the details about how we put this card together as a group. Sometimes it’s fun to put a card together with ideas from several people. Steve had the idea to pin the teddy bear up by one ear and that makes my heart happy.

National Cat Day

Stampin Up Sweet Stocking Christmas card designed by demo Beth McCullough.  Shop 24/7 and see more card and 3-D gift ideas at https://stampingmom.com/national-cat-day #stampingmom #cute&simple4u

Doesn’t every kid dream of waking up on Christmas morning to find a sweet pet under their Christmas tree? The kids are probably hoping for a kitty or a puppy. The parents are hoping a goldfish will suffice. My Christmas card is showing all the possibilities. I think we can all agree that no one is dreaming of a mouse under their tree. 🙂

The background paper is Peaceful Place. The tree is from Whimsical Trees. The animals were all fussy cut from the Sweet Stockings Designer Series Paper (DSP).

It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge!  This week’s challenge #FF0095 is National Cat Day World Day which is October 27th.

The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE or more of the items in your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge  I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us. If you want help entering, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and I’d be happy to help you! From the Inspo List I used cat, fish and mouse.  Your entry doesn’t have to have anything to do with National Cat Day.

For more inspiration, be sure to visit the rest of the  Festive Friday Challenge Design team.
