Convention Survival Kit

During convention I am sharing a hotel room with a demonstrator from Adelaide. I have not met Laura before, but know that she is very excited, but also quite nervous about attending her first convention, so I wanted to put a special gift on her bed for when she arrives. I came up with the idea of a Convention Survival Kit, and rummaged through my craft room to find a suitable tin that I could alter. I am really pleased with how it all came together!

I filled the tin with little items that I thought Laura might find useful over the course of the weekend. It included Tissues, Panadol, Plasters, Lip Balm, Hand Cream & of course Chocolate (no stamping event should ever be without chocolate!).

That's gorgeous Sharlene - I wish I was sharing as room with you!! LOL I'm not even going so there's no chance there!! She will be very amazed at the effort you put into it I'm sure - have fun. I can't wait to see what you come back with.

When you explained it to me it sounded pretty awesome. It looks even better in picture. Laura is one lucky lady to have you for a room mate.
