MORE Convention Photos

Are you sick of hearing about Convention, yet!?  I hope not!  There are so many things from it I want to share.  To make it easy for you and me I made an album with some pictures of some of the display boards.  Each display board has dozens of cards/project samples.  Make sure to zoom in so that you can see them up close.

Lots of Samples from Convention

ONE of the MANY things I love about Convention is seeing the creative ways that people use to make projects.  Many times I will flip through a catalog and imagine using stamp sets in a set way and then see people use them in a totally different, very creative way.  This is what I felt about the Domestic Goddess Suite.  Although I thought it was cute, I didn't really envision using or buying it.  Well, of course, it is now officially on my wish list.  Take a look at these cute samples and you'll see what I mean. 

 I love these creative projects, but also the fun soft colors from this DSP set.

Cute, right?!  Let me know what you think.

Trip to the Stampin' Up Home Office

I took a trip to the SU Home Office on Day 2 and was wowed with it.  I want to work there when I grow up!  It was full of ideas, beautiful scenery and looks of displays.  Here are a few pictures:

I have 350+ pictures to share.  I will select the good ones and share some every day this week.  Come back to see more!

Day 1 SU Convention Highlights

So this is my new BFF Shelli!  LOL.  Yes, I was a total groupie today and jumped at the opportunity to take a picture with Stampin' Up's Co-Founder/CEO.  And, YES I even got her autograph.  I tried to act cool like she was any other person but she's not.  She is the genius that created SU and I think she is adorable.  Last year I missed this opportunity so when I seen her posing I dropped my lunch and power walked over there.  LOL

Okay, so that was super fun but there were a lot of fun things today.  First, I got my free stuff:

• Four Stamp Sets
• A Really Nice Bag that has a ton of compartments
• A Binder with the Catalog and Page Dividers
• A Simple Sent Kit- that they gave away at the end of the day

Another big surprise was that they showed us the new Holiday Mini Catalog that will be release in September.  While I can't show that to you I can show you some projects using some of the new Christmas projects:

Stockings!!! There are lots of stockings in the new catalog including a big shot die that was used to make these.  Aren't these so cute!!!  Can you tell how excited I am over these!!
