Wood blocks make for heavy suitcases!

Thought I would share a pic of the stamp sets and some (yes, only some!) of the merchandise I brought home with me from Convention. First up are the stamp sets - Trendy Trees & Circle Circus were in our Convention bags when we signed in (the bag is at the back), and the rest are sets I earned with awards etc - Eastern Blooms, Petal Pizzazz, Bella's Bloom, Time to Party, Flower for all Seasons. I'll let you in on something I learnt on the way home - all those wood blocks make your suitcase heavy!!

Stampin Up! always has a Memento Mall at Convention, where we can purchase logo wear etc to help in our businesses. They had some SUPER CUTE stuff there this year, including the Raspberry Tart Pencil Case and Pixie Pink Drink Bottle. I also got a very smart Certainly Celery business shirt, and you can see in the front a lovely Close to Cocoa Cardigan with an image from Thoughts & Prayers embroidered on the front (the cardi is sooo soft!)

No Stampin' Up! event would be complete without make n takes. Here is one of the projects we made, I will share the other 3 once I have completed them (hopefully tomorrow!)

I'm impressed that you've got so many of the stamp sets mounted already. You so deserve all those lovely rewards.
