I may not be there.....Or Maybe I AM

Sharing

I love working for a company that encourages us to share what we love & love what we do.
At all of the Stampin' Up events weather its regional training or team training or at the largest event which is our yearly conference there are always display boards filled with hundreds of samples. I love these boards as they always show a variety of very different styles. At the yearly convention we join up with fellow demonstrators from France & Germany & whilst they use the same range of products as us here in the UK their style is very different.
This year at regional training we were all asked to supply a project made from the products on offer in the new summer 2012 Mini catalogue.
Here is the project I made for the Inspiration Board.

Using the Bordering On Romance set, the picture is not the best as the lighting in the hotel room was not too good.

Here are some of the other projects from the Inspiration Board

During the training event we had demos from Charlotte from Stampin' Up & a fellow demo Jenny McCormac These are what they shared with us.

I feel very lucky to able to share in these Ladies creativity.

I jumped in my car with my bag of stamps, my punches, and my apron on.

Driving to her house where my girlfriends with, to see my new catalog.

Here I am, and it’s time for me to shine.

Grab my bag, and I’m nervous like the first time.

It all seems so crazy!

I was looking for a way to make it.

Now we’re chilling out; having such a good time

Some are here for the very first time.

The special swaps
Many demo's too part in a Convention memento swap which is basically a mini scrapboo page that has a picture of themselves as a memento from convention.
I didn't opt to take part in this swap as the group ended up being 90 people & I knew that I would struggle to complete just my basic swaps, but I did get given three of these swaps as some people had made extra's to hand out.

Thank you ladies for sharing your Memento swaps with me.

Convention swaps Day 5
