More Convention Gifts

As I stated before - convention gifts are just part of the overall convention experience for stampers - I got a few more great gifts this year!

This adorable decorated giant clothespin to hold a picture or a card sample in from Jeri!

Jeri also gave us all this yummy jam and Huckleberry candies - it is (I mean was :) delicious!!

And a little treat bag for my chocolate fix from Diane.

Thank you to everyone who attended convention from our group - it was great seeing you all there.  And thanks for the goodies!! ~Maureen

Convention gifts

So convention kicked my A$$ - my autoimmune has really been giving me a hard time the past couple weeks -and convention nearly knocked me out. I had ha amazing time - but was exhausted and still have not recovered.  I'm doubling up on my supplements, and trying to eat well and get enough rest - so hopefully I'll see an upswing in my health soon.  So - I am sorry about the lack of posting - will try and do better.   But I did want to share the final pictures of the totes I made for convention gifts -

After decorating I added the goodies you see below -

Here they are just before I packed them up to take down to the convention hall - I think they are so cute.

Watch for more convention news in my upcoming posts!  but for now - nigh, nigh ~Maureen

Roommate Gift Number 2

So today I'm sharing another one of my adorable Roommate gifts from Convention - this one came from Sarah.  I took a picture from another angle - but it came out way too dark.  So this one will have to do.  It is a cute little gift bag made from a sheet of DSP - the sides are gusseted and the top is punched and a ribbon threaded through  to close it!  It is so cute - and inside - a Starbucks gift card - she knows ME!  Reminds me of a little clutch purse.

Stop back soon for some more pics of great things I got at Convention!!  Wanna join me next year - be sure to check out the "Become a Crazy Stamping Lady!" at the top of this blog.  ~Maureen

A quick post - and apology

I must be getting old - I simply can't believe it's been a week since I blogged.  Between Convention - extra work at my day job - a vacation - and then EVEN MORE work at my job - time is just slipping away from me.  But enough is enough - as this little gem below says - YOU'RE FABULOUS - for sticking me - so more great posts are on the way!

This cute little post-it note holder and pen was a gift from one of my roomies, Devin, at convention - isn't it great!!!  I love it, and had such a great time getting to know her better at Convention.  Thanks again!!  ~Maureen
