Stamp Cafe

I was busy all last week getting ready for a customer event called Stamp Cafe. This is typically an event  I run with a few other leaders in my team and my family helps a ton!

Saturday was a little more challenging however, because our middle daughter was running a case competition at the U of A and my husband has been flat on his back now for 3 weeks with back/nerve pain. So our son Aaron was loaded with a lot of extra responsibilities. He really stepped up to the plate and did an awesome job setting up, running video/sound, doing the lunch run, and tearing down! I also enlisted the help of his girlfriend Kayla to run registration and prize patrol… and my mom helped with clean up. I seriously couldn’t have done the day without them!

Here are a few pics of the set up… I found this door post and sign at a Vintage Market here in Edmonton a couple of weekends ago. I LOVE it!!Stamp-Cafe-3Registration table…Stamp-Cafe-4Stamp Cafe was die-cut from fabric pieces and glued onto vanilla cardstock circles and then adhered to our kraft bags.Stamp-Cafe-5

Hello 2016

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and are ready to say Hello 2016! It has been a little extra busy at our house these few weeks, because our daughter Samantha got engaged:) So midst all the Christmas activity, we squeezed in as much wedding planning as we could while her fiance (Richy Marks) is here.

Christmas cards got sent out a bit later that they should have, because we were waiting for everyone to arrive home so we could take our annual family photo.Semler-Family-Dec132015-online So from everyone at the Semler household, we wish you a very Happy New Year!
