Final Convention Round-up

So today I'll share the rest of my Convention memories - it was such a fun experience.  First off my lanyard and name tag at check in time!

A view of just a few of the stampers there from the escalator.

Main stage where all of the general sessions were held - they always decorate it so beautifully.

The unveiling of the new Holiday catalog - I placed my pre-order today and there was sooooo much stuff I wanted, but I was able to real myself in a bit and start slow - mostly things for my Halloween projects for now.

 

A couple of the cute little projects we were able to make and get our hands on some of the new product.

Our Crazy Stamping Ladies' Group -

 

Diane, Toni, Xandra, Jeri, myself and Heidi!

A fun Paper Pumpkin promotion set we were able to purchase.

A special leadership/years of service award full of stamping goodies.

Our annual end of convention dinner at PF Chang's with a couple friends.

And when I got home - this was my haul - actually there are even things missing.  It was really an amazing time - the final convention as we know it.  From now on it will be semi-annual OnStage events held all over the world - so I am glad I was able to attend this one in Salt Lake City.

Stop back soon.  Stampingly, Maureen

Our Team Got Awards......

Convention is always fun ---- but this year was great --- we got a lot of prizes and awards.  Heidi and I both got to walk to recruiting and leadership awards.

 Here I am walking the stage for 15 years!

Then of course, Heidi made the top ten to make it on the Artisan Design Team for the coming year - how amazing is that - and well deserved!

 Next - five of my downline team were able to walk for their 5 year anniversaries -

 Sandy, Maria, Heidi, Julie and Diane - all celebrated five years with SU!

and finally Heidi got to walk the stage for earning the Hilton Head get-away trip this September.  She and hubby Aaron have never had a real honeymoon - so I am so happy the two of them will be able to get away on this trip.

Our group was also winners when it came to this year's PRIZE PATROL - with five of the 11 of us winning great prizes.  What a wonderful experience convention is.  Can't wait to go back next year!!

Here's our entire group of Crazy Stamping Ladies that attended convention.  Back left to right: Heidi, Sandy, Lois, Julie, Maria, Shawna and Toni.  Front left to right: Christel, Jacqui, Me and Diane.  Thanks ladies for a marvelous time!! ~Maureen
