WOW!!!! I just got back from Stampin' Up!'s Annual Conventionin Salt Lake City, UT, what an amazing event. I have sooo much news, ideas and more to share with you this blog will be rockin' over the next few weeks with cool new convention ideas! One of the biggest highlights for me from convention was the annual Stampin' Up! Awards night. This photo to the right is of a few of the demos in my group (including my mom). They are the BEST!
Upon check in I was surprised with a "Founders Circle" bag, which meant that I would be awarded a spot in the top 100 demonstrators of the company, and am invited to the annual Founder's Circle retreat. That's all I knew, I could have been anywhere from 100 to 1. I was shocked and shaking when they announced I had earned:

Artistic Etchings Newsprint
July 21, 2010 by
This simple, vintage Artistic Etchings (118517 wood, 102573 clear mount) card also used the new Newsprint Designer Series paper (117166) and the new Vintage Wallpaper impressions folder (120175). A little sponging with cherry cobbler on the edges, and a spritz gives this card the perfect amount of "vintage".Convention or Bust! Salt Lake City here I come

As this post makes it's way to my blog, I'm heading out to Salt Lake City, UT for Stampin' Up's Annual convention!! I'm soooo stinkin' excited I can hardly stand it. I will have lots to share from the event. One of my favorite parts of any stampin' event is swapping, this is one of my swaps that I'm bringing.

This gorgeous sample of the new Because I Care hostess stamp set was created by Jane Rappleyea. She stamped the hydrangea in sahara sand and colored with stampin' pastels. The effect is subtle and beautiful. The colors are bashful blue, chocolate chip, pacific point and very vanilla.

I'm soooo excited about the new Stampin' Up Idea Book and Catalog, and one of my new favorites is the Because I Care Level 1 Hostess set (118384 wood, 120118 clear mount). The hydrangea on flower image is gorgeous!! This card was created by my downline Sue McQuiston, she's very talented and I love, love, love getting her cards. Sue enhanced this card with some sponging and used the new Vintage Wallpaper impressions (120175) folder for the Big shot for the background.
