The Best Part of Stampin' Up! Convention.......

 
.....is stamping with your on line friends in person. (left to right Becky Roberts, Di Gibbs, Kim Sinclair) There is the picture of the four of us but I could not bear to post it because my forehead was super shiney-hey don't laugh,it's the make up artist in me!

..... watching one of your good friends win a Cruise To Alaska! (Paula Jensen) and Kim Sinclair also won!

 

.....sitting on a GIGANTIC STAMP!

.....seeing your work on the Stampin' Up! display boards and finding out you were a Finalist for the Artisan Award Contest! (I found 6 of my projects on diplay and was one of 22 finalists!)

.....participating in a super fun Organized Colour Challenge Swap hosted by Stacey Shcafer from Stacey's Stamping Stage. (she hosts a great on line weekly colour challenge, is super nice in person, and I most likely chatted her ear off lol!) The colours were Whisper White, Baja Breeze,Melon Mambo and Crumb Cake and  all of the swaps I received back were fantastic.

....watching the extremely talented Heather Summers present on stage. She has to be one of the most genuinely sincere people you will ever meet and I can not wait to see her in a few weeks!

.....learning how to water colour from THE MASTER! Di Gibbs is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G and I can not wait to try out her tips and techniques.
  

So what do you think? Does the Stampin' Up! Convention sound like a whole lot of fun?! I would love to have you come with me next year:)

Happy Stampin'

Although I am in no way surprised - CONGRATS that you were one of the finalist! I still can't believe your gorgeous creations didn't win - but it must feel really special to know you were so close. Next year!
