I am back home after attending the Stampin' Up! Leadership Convention in Orlando. It was a fun, high energy learning environment. And of course we received some free product I am looking forward to inking up and showing you!
I thought you might enjoy some pics of projects showcased at the convention. Keep in mind the photos were taken of the large screen in the auditorium/theater for the large group sessions. I still think you can get a good look at the projects.
This was created by the very talented Becky Roberts. She is an amazing demonstrator and her site is Inking Idaho.
This card was created by Jenny Peterson. She stamped the lines from the Painted Petals stamp set above the Painted Blooms DSP and then covered it with the new White Jute Ribbon from the Occasions Catalog. Very clever!
And this card was created by Diana Gibbs. She stamped the tulips from the Love is Kindness stamp on the bottom of the card stock so she only captured the tulips. The sentiment is from the Build a Bouquet Photopolymer Stamp Set.
On the final day of the convention we had a keynote speaker – Jason Wright. He spoke to us about the power of the handwritten card or letter. He shared a personal experience of a teacher who wrote him a letter after his father passed away when he was in middle school. He was a fabulous speaker and it was a powerful story.
After the convention I drove up to Gainesville Florida to see our oldest son. We went to dinner and then to a concert by Black Violin. (check them out, they are amazingly talented) At the concert the violist, Kev Marcus acknowledged the music teacher who was in the audience who started him playing the violin. It was another powerful story of how in the everyday things that we do, we make a difference in someone's life.
That is certainly what I want to be famous for … making a difference in others lives.
Thanks for stopping by!
