2008 Convention

The last couple of days have been filled with the early preparations for the 2008 Stampin' Up! convention in Salt Lake City, Utah. Yesterday morning (very early morning) I was able to register for the convention itself with no problems whatsoever.

Today when I went to register for a hotel room, it was a little different story. I didn't plan on missing out on the room blocks for the hotels nearby the convention center, but it happened! It began with no link on the SU! website for registering for the hotels, and then within 30 minutes of it being posted, all the blocked hotel rooms were gone.

Thankfully, my dear hubby saved the day by finding a hotel with a room and booked it for me. So, now I just need to get the creative juices flowing and start to think of what I'm making for swaps. I won't start them until after the retiring stamp set list is posted July 1st, though.

I'll post more tomorrow and make sure to include at least one project!

2011 Desktop Calendar

The image to the left of the calendar can be changed according to the season (winter, spring, summer & fall) by removing the image and placing one of the other 3 onto the velcro dot (attached behind the image). The corresponding side of the velcro dot is placed on the back side of the images. I used the stamp set A Flower for all Seasons , #111592, $14.95. And, the extra images are stored inside in a small cellophane bag. The calendar base takes only 1 sheet of card stock to make, measuring 9" x 6-1/2". With simple scoring and folding, it goes together very quickly. Another demonstrator had shared the calendar file that is printed onto printer paper and cut to size. All fit into the 1/2" library clip from the clips assortment (#112580; $6.95). There are 8 of them included in the package along with a couple of other style of paper clips. While they are still ...
