Team gifts for Convention

We couldn’t go to Paris as a team without commemorating the occasion in some way. As I’ve mentioned before on here, every time one of my team attends an official Stampin’ Up!® event, I present them with a bead for their keyring. They earn a keyring from me when they achieve their first SU promotion and become a Bronze 2 demonstrator – so yes, sometimes they have a bead before they have something to put it on!

Instead of a bead this time, I thought we should have something special – so found these cute little Eiffel Tower charms. I’ve cheated and had mine on my keyring for weeks – thankfully, nobody has noticed! I packed them up using the fabulous Two Tags die, scored twice and folded forwards this time. The Scallop Circle is only attached at the top, so that the flap fits under it. I used the Artistic Etching stamp set because it has an Eiffel Tower stamp in it – sadly it wouldn’t fit on this project, but the thought was there!

Again, all different colours – got to use those scraps!

Stamps: Artistic Etchings, Tiny Tags
Cardstock: Wild Wasabi, Certainly Celery, Baja Breeze, Not Quite Navy, Very Vanilla
Ink: Not Quite Navy, Cherry Cobbler
Accessories: 1 3/8” circle punch, scallop circle punch, Two Tags Die, Big Shot, Heart to Heart Punch

    As a recipient of one of the above I can assure you that they were fantastic and a wonderful suprise for me as I am only an "adopted" member of Helen's team. We also all received a jute bag decorated by Helen, again a lovely suprise and much appreciated. Many thanks Helen and thanks for an unforgetable weekend. See you soon Ann X
