I’ve helped Ann with 8 catalog roll outs and this one has been the most, er, interesting.
Since it’s Throwback Thursday, I thought you’d like to see how far I’ve come! You can click on any of them if you want to see me up close and personal.
I was unpacking boxes when I was pretty young. Stampin’ Up!’s 20th Anniversary was in 2008 but according to our files, this was taken when I was almost 4 in 2009.
This first catalog picture was during one of the years that they had two full catalogs a year. I’m just 2 years, 3 months in this picture which means December, 2007. Ann had to roll up my shirt!
Can’t believe I guessed this in order, but this is 2009. Ann served on the Stampin’ Up! Advisory Board while this Crushed Curry catalog was in play.
OK. Here’s my favorite picture. Aren’t I handsome?
Same catalog. Different pose. Summer 2010. I’m almost 5!
2013 and it’s my first cover on the new website.
We didn’t take a catalog picture last year. What WAS Ann thinking? Notice that I’m starting to gray in 2014 just before I turned 9. I know this was catalog time because Ann had lots of new product in those boxes and we bought that sign as a prize for her bunko group that comes to play with me every summer.
I’m even more distinguished in this year’s photo. I’ll be 10 on September 2nd. I’m itching for a grand surprise party – hint, hint.

StamperDog, you ROCK!! How wonderful that you help out Ann. We help our Mom, Sue, also. We keep her company when she’s walking around her craft room. Greyhounds lay around a lot; we take retirement to heart…Since there’s 3 of us, that makes 12 feet and legs she has to walk around/through. Since we are of the larger canine family, Greyhounds, we’re easy to see on the floor. So she doesn’t step on us, or trip. You should hear her yell at the 3 CATS, as they are always on the floor, and they are black and she doesn’t see them like she sees us.
Please tell Ann that our Mom loves her newsletter, videos, and all the tips she shares. Mom said that she wished we would take more of an interest in her cardmaking like you do, but we don’t work anymore, but we do give her inspiration. She’s made several cards depicting Greyhounds that she’s donated to Greyhound Adoptions Groups for fundraising.
Thanks, StamperDog, glad to meet you.

the cats,
Louie, LuLu and Lucy (altho they don’t really help Mom. They hide her stuff sometimes but that doesn’t make her happy.
Oh my dogs! I just love people who help retired dogs. You must have a pretty nice mom.
Don’t eat so much card stock that it colors your back yard!
