City Creek Mall

This is where we went yesterday after we checked into the hotel.  This is a beautiful outdoor mall with some really cool stores.  We had lunch at the Red Iguana.  Then we went to Swarski, Tiffany's and Pandora.  Checked out some other stores but I don't remember the names of the stores.  Today I went back for lunch at a place called The Blue Lemon and then I went to the Brighton store and Nordstrom's.  The weather here is great.  Pretty warm but there's a real nice breeze.

Maybe I'll have time later to post some stampin pictures.

Killing Time

I'm just sitting around in the airport in Denver killing time.  When I booked this flight I never looked at how much time there was between flights.  So in a few minutes I'm going to go and find something to eat.  I've been up since 3:00am and now it's 11:00am.  (Michigan time).  Still a couple of hours before my flight. 
So here's a cute card that my sister showed me and I used it at the last card class.  This card is generic and it would be just as cute in green and yellow. 

I'll be posting all week from convention.  And on Saturday there is going to be a big announcement from Stampin' Up! so check back for that.  If you're a Stampin' Up! demo you can see the announcement live on the Stampin' Up! web site.

Somehow I've gotten totally out of the groove.  I think it was the vacation last week and then coming home to no power.  But there is some good news.  I've got all my swaps done for convention and to celebrate I went to Lansing today and bought some new clothes for convention.  I didn't really need them but, like a little kid, I wanted them.  So I think I'm ready for convention.  And this weekend we have two family reunions to take up my time. 
But I do have a couple of cards to show you.  These cards use the stamp set "Embellished Events".  This is a very versitile set for anyone but I think it's great for beginners becasue there's a great variety of stamps in the set. 

It doesn't show up very well but there's a Dahlia on this card.  I love those little flowers. 

Papaya Collage

Here are three cards made with the new Papaya Collage stamp set.  We did these cards at Ronda's new catalog kickoff.  I'm just really slow getting things posted.
