When I attended convention, the make & takes were divided in two separate areas.  In the second area, I created 4 make & takes to die for!

This Hello card was just radiant (in real) Love the new crushed curry.  I’m usually a bleu girl but this yellow is growing on me like a charm.  You have got to challenge yourself and try it.  Stamp set was Hello again which we received in our convention bag.

Then there was this cute :  Things I love Cello Bag of Cards with matching envelops.  We used the things I love stamp set .

What a great hostess gift!  Book a workshop and receive one of these:  Call me 613-675-1555 or email me:  kim@riverfrontstampin.com

Not enough chocolate:  Why not try making one of these cute Hello Box to hide delicious chocolates:  We used the Hello Again set and Retro Remix Stampin’Around wheel.

And here is my favorite make & take this lovely 8.5×8.5 page…  I love scrapbooking and just because I can share my favorite things: for the one’s who know me NEW SHOES ( lol Cindy Major), chocolate, shopping and my girls:  Megan(9),Jordan(4), Lauren(7).  What wonderful memories of convention 2009.  Maybe tomorrow, I will share what I won at convention this year!

Memento Mall is one of the COOLEST things about Stampin’ Up! Conventions… demonstrators wait in line 4 and 5 hours to get in and buy fun things Stampin’ Up! offers ( for attending demonstrators only!!!! )  One of the great purkes of being a demonstrator!

I got a few items for my direct downline, my best sellers and recruiters, can’t wait to give them their gifts at my demonstrators award ceremony!

Every year stampin’up creates clothing out of designer paper!  Just love the creativity

Here are a few pics of convention Make and takes.  There was two parts.  Today I will share part one.  I call it Christmas in August!  All images are stampin’up copyright 2009

I am still in Salt lake city, Utah for Stampin’up convention.  Here I am (left) with Maggie Patterson(right) on main stage.  When you are a demonstrator and achieve milestones you walk the main stage in front of all demonstrators attending the convention.  It is a stampin’up tradition to celebrate our accomplishments.  Yesterday I walked the stage because I earned the southern cruise, today for my sales and tomorrow for recruiting and promoting.  It was very emotional.    Who knows, if you join my team, maybe you will be walking on stage next year with me.

The first 5 demonstrators to join my team in August will receive a suprise bonus product from the new mini catalogue! (This offer is valid through Kim only)
