Birthday Party Invitations

I made 52 cards for all of Elina’s Grade 1 schoolmates for their end of school birthday party / 4 Girls Birthday Party!  Her party webpage is at http://anker.ca/endofschoolparty/

P.S. I am aware of the spelling mistake – YOUR=You’re!  Sorry Kindergartners, Teachers & Parents!

Vespa Renovation

A few years ago I put on a Stampin’ Up Decor Elements Manhattan Flower – yesterday I picked it off (that easy), used some “Goo Be Gone”  (adhesive remover) and put on some new elements Ginormous Flowers I (Pink).  I even used our scalloped punch and 1″ circle punch to cut out some vinyl from some of the larger pieces I didn’t use…I’m tempted to find a olive permanent marker to touch up the leaves a bit.  Here are the photos:

Oops…I Did It Again!!

Got to say that that “something:30″ wake up call made it all worth while to be at the front of the line, but this is icing on the cake, to make  to in the demonstrator convention highlights photots:

Final Day – Home Bound (At Airport)

Hi ladies:

I’m at the airport – having had to leave early today

I had a spectacular time this year – as usual.  I have taken so many photos and can share a few more bits (and even a few that I promised NOT to share (wink wink Stella!!!)

Will post more when I’m home and settled…

SU rocks and so do my new friends and acquaintances!!

Day 1 – Updates (Finally)

[View with PicLens]

Started this AM really really early…I’m not gonna say when but please consider my watch says EST zone so I’m not crazy (really!).

We got to enter through the big slide up doors and our group of 9 got our front row and enjoyed the first day

There was dancing

There was swapping

There was a cool demonstration of the “My Digital Studio” (which I saw in Leadership in Orlando).  Cute [beep] was that last years in colors were included the the color pallet – Its still cool but still NOT available until “stay tuned for an announcement in September”

We got to also see the new Build-a-Bear workshop and the big secret Momento Mall purchase for today was a teddy bear from Build a Bear!  Elina will love hers.

I had to skip out (my bad) on my 3 workshops this afternoon after lunch and Make & Take (next paragraph) because of the tooth things.

The Make & Takes were stinkin cute but CRAZY fast….dizzy fast & rushed.  But cute just the same

Supper with the girls and a small portion of the awards night to see my upline place #3 in Recruiting and #5 Demonstrator of Canada!! (YEAH & EH)

Here are photos will be here on facebook for now (sorry – the gallery thing on my blog is kaputz!!)

Minor Dental Malfunction in SLC

I really apologize ladies for not keeping you up to date

I had a bit of a dental malfunction (broke a piece of tooth connected to a filling and well for the last 2 days it was so sore (the tongue) that talking was difficult.

AND you all know  how much that is hard for me to stop doing

So I found a Emergency Dental clinic and I feel like a Million bucks with my mouth back in full force

Off to finish dinner and then to awards night

Having a blast….!!

Start of Check-In Day

Awake at 6:30

Hot Mexican Food

We just spent a few hot hours at the Blue Iguana – wonderful company, a few swaps, yummy margarita’s – however, it was so hot inside – without air conditioning – I’ll post some fun photos soon.

I’m sitting at the Marriott hotel lobby with a flurry of swapping women – with the most spectacular swaps I’ve seen yet – and the convention hasn’t even started yet (officially)

My roommate arrives at midnight and tomorrow we do check in (I don’t have my name and bag tag) and Momento Mall and then the Bag and goodies!

I’ll be doing the SCS Dinner & Swap tomorrow night.

Photos to follow!
