Yesterday was day 2 of the Stampin' Up! Convention.
The doors opened to music and plenty of dancing.
We are always on the "look out" for the Stampin' Up! celebrities.
The rest of our group was roaming around and look who I found,
Bonnie Farley. She is a wonderful, hysterical woman who works at the
home office. We LOVE when Bonnie does a presentation.
She is so funny and makes everyone feel at ease.
Of course I had to have my picture taken with her.
Next General Session started. Shelli Gardner's (the CEO and Co-Founder of
Stampin' Up!) daughter, Sara Douglass gave a very moving talk.
She had everyone in tears — great job Sara.
There were marches (walk across the big stage) for Getaway and Grand Vacation
achievers. Here is Tina and I as we come down the stairs. The nice young man
helping this old lady down the steps was Shelli's son-in-law Jason.
Prize Patrols started — WOOHOO. All six in our group ended up winning a
Prize Patrol today. We can't show new product yet but I think the Ornate Tag Punch
covers the stamp set enough — Amanda, Katie and I all won a new Hostess stamp set and the punch.
One day left tomorrow — so sad that it's almost over but I'll be coming home
with lots of energy and ideas.
