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!!

I had so much fun today and am ready for bed (it's only 7:30!)   but first.....DO YOU WANT TO JOIN ME NEXT YEAR?!  DO YOU WANT TO GET A DISCOUNT ON SU PRODUCTS OR MAKE MONEY OFF OF STAMPS?  Check out this offer...

P.S.  The mobile idea wasn't as great as I thought.  Sorry, I'll have to do my post the old fashioned way ;) 

Convention Swap #1 & Testing

I am busy packing for Stamping' Up's annual Convention but thought I would take a break to post one if my swaps and test out my new mobile Blogger app.

First, the swap. This Little Additions stamp set is from the new catalog. I loved it the minute I seen it. So my swap number 1 is made with this set. Some people make 200 swaps to take to convention. I am only taking a fraction of that this year. I can't wait to see what I get in exchange.

Testing, well I thought it would be fun to post a few pictures while I am at Convention so I downloaded an app that let's me blog from my phone. Let me know what you think! I know the pictures are not great, but hopefully you will enjoy following along with me on my trip.

Talk to you soon from SLC!!
