Hello From Convention!!

I haven’t been writing for a few days because I was frantically getting ready for Stampin’ Up! Convention in Salt Lake City, Utah! Well, here I am. We arrived yesterday in the early afternoon. It is so nice here, very hot but not humid!

Before I left home I didn’t have time to finish creating my swaps for Convention (I will post pics of them soon), so I stamped on the plane! The flight attendants got a real kick out of all us demos stamping on the plane.

I am staying in the Marriot across the street from the Convention Center. How convenient is that!! AND Shellie Gardner the co-founder and CEO of Stampin’ Up! is staying in our hotel too! I met her last year and she is SO nice. I have seen her and various members of her family throughout the day today. It is so exciting to be here and see them. Hopefully I will get another pic with her again this year.

Last night after we arrived Gwynne, Laura, and I went swimming and then did some sight seeing in the area. We are across the street from historic Temple Square. If you would like to learn a little about the Temple Square click here. This is a picture of the Mormon Temple in Temple Square during the day:

The Temple at night looked so striking, I couldn’t resist another picture. Check this out!!:

There were banners all over the city welcoming us to Salt Lake:

That was pretty much my first day in Salt Lake. Today was check in day for convention. I was able to shop at Momento Mall and best of all received my advanced copy of the NEW SU! CATALOG!!! it is beautiful and there is definitely something in this catalog for everybody. Some of my favorites like Tart n Tangy are going to be in the catalog!!! I was so excited about that. I will post some pics of Check-In day tomorrow.Right now it is midnight and I am cross eyed. So, I am going to bed. Talk to you tomorrow!!

Happy Stamping!
