SU! Convention 2005 - WOW!

I returned from Convention in Salt Lake City yesterday and all I can say is WOW! SU! has done it again - providing a professionally done, creatively planned, family atmosphere Convention for thousands of it's demonstrators. The swaps were fun and fabulous! Scroll down for samples of a few of the projects I made at Convention. I'll post some of the swaps I received soon!

Yet another project I made at the Stampin' Up! 2005 Convention last week. This is a pocket card made with a couple pieces of one of SU!"s NEW Pockets & Pieces Kits , as well as an embellishment from the NEW HodgePodge Hardware Kit. The shading on the gable green layer of card stock is done using a technique called "direct to paper". Contact me to book a workshop to learn this technique! 

This was a 6 x 6 Brag Book scrapbook page I made at the Stampin' Up! 2005 Convention - 1st Session. Don't you just LOVE our NEEW HodgePodge Hardware Kit accessories on this page? Contact me to order your one - they come in pewter, aged copper, and antique brass with 100 matching brads and approximately 138 hardware pieces all for only $26.95 (tax & shipping not included) 

Isn't this a fabulous vintage design? This was one of several projects I made at the Stampin' Up! 2005 Convention - 1st session last week. Next year - you could be there too!  

Happy 25th Anniversary to my brother and sister-in-law!

I designed this invitation using the NEW Level 3 Host-Only set called Island Blossoms as they are having a Luau themed party. Also uses Sketch an Event and Wonderful Words heat embossed in sterling silver EP. Card stock & Classic Ink = whisper white, tempting turquoise & brilliant blue. Accessories = Coluzzle, small corner rounder punch, silver cord, mini glue dots and dimensionals.
