New Blends are Here & Team BBQ!

I am super excited to share the news that all of our new blends have arrived at long last!

Last night was my monthly team get together and this was one of the make and takes we had, this design was by our lovely hostess Amye! Just love this card using the Lillypad lake bundle! We use the blends to color all the elements on the front of this card.

So very thankful that the thunderstorms and rain didn’t hamper our lovely evening together outside on Amye’s patio. She barbecued some chicken, hot dogs, hamburgers/cheeseburgers, and had a delicious spread of salad, deviled eggs, pickles, baked beans, and cookies-it was a feast! Thanks Amye!

One of the things I always like to do with my team the month that we launch a new catalog is to do a scavenger hunt a.k.a. new catalog quiz to see how well they know our products. Here is everyone taking the quiz.

Here are all the prizes for the scavenger hunt.

Everyone won a new prize of Stampin’ Up! product- I love to do these giveaways with my team!

We also decided to do something new at our June BBQ- we did a homemade gift exchange, this is something we always do it Christmas time and boy it was super fun. All 12 gifts were so sweet and fun, we drew numbers from 1 to 12 and we played that you could steal a gift from someone else. I think Kara had the most gifts stolen from her, sorry Kara! I wish I had taken a photo of every single gift, they were all fantastic!

This was the sweet little gift that I came home with, these four cards were in a nice little box with a ribbon and look at the adorable decorated tea cup with this cute plant. My gift was made by Tiffany, thanks Tiff!

This was my gift for our exchange, I did a framed art piece with the word home and the interchangeable O. I included 12 monthly themed items in a cute little box. These are magnetic and hang very easily. I have a couple more classes coming up in August and September, let me know if you want to take this class and make this project!

Here we all are, I forgot my selfie stick so this group photo is not the best, but I love it! And I love these girls and I’m so thankful they decided to join my team, we have a lot of fun together! Stampin Up is offering a great special for the month of July, you will receive a free set of new ink pads, I will block more about this tomorrow but if you’ve been thinking that you’d like to give us a try let me know I’d love to chat with you!

Don’t forget my June giveaway ends tomorrow, leave me a comment on my blog post to be entered to win. I love to hear from you! Be sure to use #Lynnzcrafters.
