Wine Glass Cozies

Hidy Ho Stampers,

Oh my goodness, this is such a fun time of the Stampin' Up! year.  We have the retired stamps and accessories lists out; we have the new catalog coming in, last minute classes to say so long to some of our favorite sets and making new cards and projects with all the new stuff!  OH SO EXCITING!  Remember to check out the Discontinued Lists and the Clearance Rack.  Make sure you hurry and get what you want now, the items are going fast (I'm not kidding)!

One of the gifts I made to bring to my Advisory Board friends while we were on our incentive trip to Disney were Wine Glass Cozies.  They were so easy and so cute.  I just love them.  So here is how you make them…

You start with our wonderful Stampin' Up material found in our catalogs.  Then I used the Clear Circle #114533 Die – HURRY THIS IS A RETIRING DIE!  Make sure you go to my website and purchase it NOW!

 

After you cut them out (three per cozie), you will lay one circle down with the right side of the material facing you.  Then you will take two more circles and fold them in half with the RIGHT sides out.  Lay those two "half" circles onto the full circle, pin and sew all the way around.

I made lots of these.

Next turn them right side out and I used my Bone Folder #102300 to make the circles perfect.

Slip them onto your wine glasses (you have made different colors so that each person can identify their glass).

 

wah lah….aren't they the cutest little things ever.  They absorb the sweat from your glass and identify YOUR glass.  They are so easy to make!

 

Next I wanted to share more pictures of our amazing trip to Disney.  Our last event of the trip is always the most anticipated event!  ALWAYS, no matter what trip it is…the last day or night is always above and way beyond what you could ever think up.  The Stampin' Up Events Team is totally out of this world!!!!  So we all lined up to board our buses….

We were all loaded and ready to head out, where were we going….

Oh my gosh…we were at Hollywood Studios at the Indiana Jones Show.  See the Stampin' Up sign on the stage.

The show was an exclusive show for JUST Stampin' Up! Incentive earners!  All those people are US!

And if you've ever seen the show, you KNOW they pick people from the audience.  Yes, those are demonstrators!

And that guy…that is our own Scott Nielson, CFO of Stampin' Up! and a great sport!  We all love him.

So the suspense began…

More stunts by Stampin' Up demonstrators.

here is my good friend Linda Heller with Indian Jones.  She was one that was chosen to be on stage!

woah…as they were performing their tasks, the wall started to open…

and they had tables and chairs….I've seen this show and KNEW that was not part of it…

then the food started rolling out…

even Scott had to take a double take…what was going on…

the stage hands were just ignoring what was going on and the show rolled on…

but they didn't finish the stunt show….instead they invited us to

COME ON DOWN AND WE GOT TO EAT ON THE INDIANA JONES STAGE…..OH MY GOSH!!!!!

It was beautiful!

Here is my friend Matt Heller stealing some goodies!

We had to join him of course!

I went up in the stands and took a picture of the entire event.  It was unreal!

Another view….it was awesome.

And the FOOD!!!!  mmmmmmmmmm

How cool…the decorations were incredible.

we had a DJ

and some friends to take pictures with!

Oh and how could I forget, there were Belly Dancers and a Belly Show!  :0)

More friends!

 

Oooops, Had to give my new friend a smooch!
