So this post today is about Shelli Gardner and her “coming out” so to speak.  She’s starting her own Blog – which will include some tidbits of her personal life, as well as her own Signature Line!  She’s much nicer than Martha, and a little more normal, so it only seems natural she should have her own line.  It is nice that after 20 years of running a successful company that she can finally squeeze in time for us Demo Stalkers to stalk her a little easier.  Thanks Shelli!  Hm.. hope that didn’t scare her…  :D

SoShelli.com (Shelli’s blog)

During the first general session of Convention 2008: Celebrate ’08, Shelli made an exciting announcement–she’s starting her own personal blog! Beginning Monday, August 4, at 9:00 AM (MT), you can visit www.SoShelli.com to find all sorts of things, from gift ideas and project ideas to a personal look at Shelli’s family activities and fun happenings, both at home and at the home office.

“My main objective for this blog is simple,” Shelli said in the announcement. “I want people to visit my blog and have a better day. I hope to accomplish that by sharing a personal side of me that will help people feel uplifted, positive, and optimistic.”

One element of SoShelli.com that will be sure to catch your attention is Shelli’s creative challenge. She will announce each challenge on her blog and invite blog visitors to submit their project ideas; she’ll announce the winners on her blog as well. “I’m hoping in this way to recognize the creative side of both our demonstrators and customers much more frequently and in a very accessible way,” Shelli observed.

Shelli’s Signature Collection

During the first general session of convention, Shelli announced the launch of Shelli’s Signature Collection, a line of products that span the entire Stampin’ Up! product line, including stamp sets, home décor, and accessories. “These will be products that I either personally love or, in some cases, even played a part in developing,” Shelli explained during the announcement.

The first official look at the initial offering in Shelli’s Signature Collection will be in the Holiday Mini, which demonstrators should receive sometime between August 16 and September 1.

“Now I want to make sure you know that just because a product isn’t included in my signature collection, that doesn’t mean I don’t like it,” Shelli pointed out. “In fact, I love almost everything Stampin’ Up! offers. My signature collection items are simply products that I’m particularly excited about for a particular reason.”
