Convention 2011

 
Hi Stampers!!
OH MY GOODNESS!! Can you say FUN!?!?!? Linda, Deborah and I had a FABULOUS (exhausting) time at convention in Salt Lake City last week. The convention theme was "GROW" so, I thought the photo of these adorable flowers was appropriate.
We were able to take a tour of the "home office" and distribution center in Rivertown, Utah, which is located about 30-40 minutes away from the Salt Palace Convention Center. Here is a glimpse of the outside of the building. Even THAT is "pretty". (Remember, you can click on any picture to make it bigger)

Here are Linda and I on the bus headed to the facility

Deborah, in the home office display area, dreaming of Christmas

We all walked to the entrance to get a photo with "the rock" and made it  just before the rain!

Here is Barbara looking "Convention Happy"!

What child would not love a party with this decor!?

Here is an up-close shot. 

Who needs a crystal chandelier when you can have a paper one?!? This is gorgeous in person!

The kind of sweets I need!

Don't they look yummy!

Neat idea for some artsy decor.

Celebrating the convention theme in the atrium of the home office.

Atrium of the home office. Kind of what MY workplace looks like....riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight! LOL!! 

I will post more about convention in the days and weeks to come. Check back later. If there are no new posts, just know I am working on YOUR order! (smile) 

Happy Stampin'!

So Shelli Bookmark

Hi Stampers! 
Today I want to share this bookmark with you that Shelli demonstrated on the cruise. It uses the "Clearly For You" stamp set that made it into the NEW 2011-2012 Idea Book and Catalog (from the Occasions Mini catalog!) 

YES!! The NEW CATALOG IS HERE!! 
(come by and pick yours up any time this weekend!)

(FREE to club members and to anyone who places a minimum $30 order or books a workshop. $9.95 value)

Now...back to the bookmark! (grin)
Shelli used Naturals White, Basic Black and Pear Pizzazz card stock and Basic Black and Pear Pizzazz Ink for this project. She used 1-1/4", 1-3/8", Scallop Circle and Corner Rounder punches. 
The bookmark measures 
1-3/4" x 4-1/2" (at least the one I made from her example does) 

Enjoy your Holiday Weekend!!
Happy Stampin'!
