Dee a regular with wonderful Carol Duvall

Dee was one of four regulars on HGTV's Carol Duvall Show for years 2 to 11 of its eleven year run. Some shows were shot live with a live audience and this made them both a challenge and fun. Today you might possibly catch encores of those shows or catch Dee on reruns of the Sandi Genovese Scrapbooking show on the DIY Channel.

Posh had 6 stores including Southern California's South Coast Plaza

This is Dee sitting in our last store located in Irvine CA. Better Homes and Gardens put this picture and a surprising, amazing and humbling 17 additional consecutive pages about that store in their May 1999 issue. It was a shock first seeing it nestled between Cosmopolitan and Newsweek in the local supermarket.

Dee Warren in South America

For the first five years of marriage, Dee and Warren taught American children in a school for U.S. Steel in Venezuela, South America. They absolutely loved it. Here they are with a boa constrictor wrapped around them for their, believe it or not, Christmas card photo. Pets down there were a dog, two parrots and a sloth.

Posh Impressions' Combined staff

Though Posh Impressions had 6 stores, there were never more than 3 at a time. Here is the combined staff at the annual Christmas party when there were three stores. Posh was blessed with some extremely talented people that were good at trying new challenges before others. The manager was entertaining here in her 10,000 sq. ft. home. With a home that size, the Gruenigs felt like they should work for her!

Dee taught Asian, European & American craft instructors for the military

The U.S. Department of Defense twice sent Dee to Germany, Korea and Washington DC to teach military art directors how to scrapbook and rubber stamp. They in turn taught military personnel and their families. It was excellent for creating scrapbooks to record military experiences as well as for sending handmade cards back home. Here is a photo of Korean art directors Dee taught. Notice how precise and excellent their work is. Notice too that they took the work very seriously.

Dee assisted in beginning Stampin' Up. Here she is with original founders LaVonne and Shelley.

It is not common knowledge that Dee helped introduce rubber stamping in the first video for Stampin' Up that was used for approximately their first three years to recruit their thousands of personnel. Here are original founders LaVonne Crosby (left) and Shelli Gardner with the picture taken in one of their living rooms where the video was made. In it, Dee showed how stamping was done and Shelli and Lavone followed with the recruiting pitch. It all worked very well as today Shelli, CEO, oversees 500 employees and 50,000 sales consultants called Independent Demonstrators. Dee was also their featured guest speaker for their earliest nine (9) conventions held right on the strip, the Flamingo Hilton in Las Vegas

Tim and Dee are long time friends

Tim and Dee have much respect for each other. Here Tim had come to Dee's studio in California so they could experiment together toward coming up with possible new products. Their styles are quite different with Tim famous for altered art using lots of muted vintage colors while Dee is known for her love of bright vibrant colors. Tim works and demonstrates inks and pigments directly for Ranger Industries while Dee works under license to develop and demonstrate inks and pigments for Uchida of America (Marvy).

Club Posh Moderator and Project Stamp Artist Daylene Strickland earned the cover!

A number of our Club Posh members still get published. Daylene earned this prestigious Rubber Stamper cover. And like Daylene, all club members can have their own stamp art gallery in Club Posh where their work can be seen by everyone. You can join Club Posh and enjoy the fun. It's now run by JudiKins and is free.

On television you've seen Dee's home studio desk. Here is her art desk at her studio at work

Dee used two desks in her studio away from home. This one was for working with art. Another, against another wall, was for administrative types of work. As at home, every inch around each desk was accounted for and everything was where she could easily reach it. John: Delete Nearly everything you see in this picture is available for sale on the Sunday International web site, because Dee sincerely believes in and uses the products she has a part in creating.
