I had an amazing time in Salt Lake City at Stampin’ Up!’s convention! I am excited to share that I earned Founder’s Circle as Demonstrator of the Year #91. Founders Circle are the top 100, so as you can see, I squeaked in JUST under the wire (they are letting in the riff-raff now). In any event, I will share an all expenses vacation to St. Georges, Utah in September with the Shelly and the WONDERFUL staff at SU who make that event AWESOME. Yes, I will behave, I will behave… and certainly practice my curtseys!
Convention Display and Boards – always the highlight of MY convention attendance is the displays and this year did NOT disappoint!

Wow Amy these are great pictures!!! Now that I have retired, I don’t see convention in my future (unless a lottery comes in!) and these picture just put part of me there. Thank you so much for your hard work doing this.

You are very welcome… at least something good comes out of airport delays and cancellations… I don’t know if I would have had the time otherwise!

Thanks for sharing the photos. I found a few of my projects, and in one close-up just the corner of one of my scrapbook pages. When I was able to go to convention, I always took photos of every display…the eye candy was one of the best parts for me of convention and it looks like this year did not disappoint on that front! Thanks again…
[Reply]
I just want to say thank you so much for posting your photos. I completely enjoyed looking at all the projects. You made my day!

Well Amy, what can I say. I will begin with, actually meeting you and having had dinner with you and Amanda at Olive Garden have to be on my Top 10 List from Convention 2011. I laughed so much that I don’t know what hurt worse, my jaws or my sides..ok, maybe both. Thank you so much for help making my first Convention a memorable one!! You are just as awesome as your blog. I truely hope to see you again next year and congrats on Founders Cirlce. But watch next year for me as a Rising Star!!!! Thanks again and I too have enjoyed the pictures you have posted.

I bet you guys had a wonderful time! I have been seeing some wonderful pictures from gals in the blogger world. I can’t believe you took this many photos. It is such a wonderful thing to share them with us. I am getting ready to sign up as a demo. Under heather, can’t pass up the great deal su! Is offering. I don’t quite have time to look thru all pages and was wondering what pages contain the most christmas and halloween creations?!?!

Thank you for the wonderful exciting tour of Convention 2011. Your pictures were so great and covered the entire convention and displays. Thank you really does not say enough, but Thank you.

Thank you so much from someone who was unable to attend Convention – this gives me a little taste of being there. I know this was a tremendous amount of work for you and I really appreciate it!

Your pictures are amazing!! Thanks so much for sharing.

Just squeeked by = so silly. You achieved a great thing! That would have been so even if you were #100 on the button!!! You are the creme de la creme and you certainly have worked hard to achieve your success. Love all the photos of the conventions. It is like I was there myself looking at all of them. Thank you for all the uploads. Thanks also for always helping me. I was in Utah a few years ago but I missed the conventions dates by a couple of months. Maybe some year soon I will see you there. Again, thanks for your great pix and your support. Liz
