There were over 5000 Stampin’ Up! demonstrators meeting up all over the world at their OnStage Locals this weekend.
I travelled up to Telford on Friday afternoon to attend the Centre Stage event in the evening with fellow Silver Elites and above.

The theme for CentreStage was to dress 1980s style. My teenage years were in the 1970s so I really had to use my imagination (and the internet) to come up with an idea. In the end I went for a kind of Bananarama look!
On Saturday we attended the OnStage Local, where there were just over 500 excited demonstrators who just couldn’t wait to get their hands on the 2018-19 Annual Catalogue. This will be available to customers from 1 June. I’m sure that sneak peeks will be appearing long before then though.

Getting our hands on the catalogue early is just one of the many perks we receive for attending the event. There are also prize patrols, make n takes using some of the new products and a great bag to hold it all. Of course there’s some business talk too.
OnStage also gives me the opportunity to meet up with other demonstrators from around the UK and catch up on all their news and generally have a great time. The social side is in my books just as important.
We had 80s music blasting out during the breaks and everyone had a great time singing along to some old favourites.
Just under 4 mins to go
This year Stampin’ Up! are celebrating their 30th Anniversary so these OnStage Locals were the kick off events. I’m sure that Stampin’ Up! have lots of secrets and surprises up their sleeves. The whole anniversary year will culminate in a very large OnStage Live event in November, which is being held in Orlando, Florida.

It was a full on day, starting at 9.30 am and ending at 5.30 pm. There were video recordings with news/messages and stamp/product showcases from Sara & Shelli, and recognition of demonstrators who reached Stampin’ Up milestones since the last Stampin’ Up! event. There were also live stamping showcases from UK demonstrators and 4 make n takes for us to do. Of course there was a lunch break, and mid afternoon we stopped for another break and a celebratory cupcake.
I arrived back home last night and as always came back with lots more than I took. The bag on the left is the one we were given and it contains all of my hoard of goodies! The bag on the right contains all of the WOW swaps that I received and I will share these with you later in the week once I’ve had a chance to take a photo of them all. I also had an overnight bag but that’s boring so I didn’t bother to take a photo of it.
I’ll be back tomorrow with some photos of the WOW swap that I made.
