And what was IN that Box?

Beings this was my first Leadership conference, I had NO idea what to expect with the Make and Takes...but from the chatter I heard, WE WERE SPOILED!

Inside the box that I posted yesterday....these were the projects!

They provided us with: a Simply Adorned CHARM and chain, and a beautiful dangly pearl (sorry, can't think of the name of them, they are in the current mini), 3 INSERTS to make, some ribbon to use as the "chain" for two of the charms, a container of TRINKETS, and the fabric already cut to make the BROOCH....it was amazing!

Our Make and Take boxes of GOODIES~

I can't believe I didn't post these pictures of our boxes that had our make and take projects in them! Aren't they just so darn cute! It was literally like opening up a gift at Christmas not knowing what was inside. They totally spoiled us with projects...I will post them next....

Birthday Card for Rhonda~

One of the first stamp sets I ordered from the new catalog last year was Aviary, love the silliness of this bird....and I paired it with one of my favorite Designer Series Paper, Love Notes.....I made this birthday card for Rhonda, one of my FAITHFUL friends and club members~

"THE" Bag

So, being my FIRST Leadership, I had NO idea what to expect. I was pretty stooked at first just to be flying, going to Nashville, spending time with my friend and meeting up with gals I met over the interenet(inspiration girls), swapping cards, etc, etc....BUT, I almost forgot how exciting a Stampin' Up! event can be when you get to finally "meet" THE bag......and this year, it was more than a bag....it was a PURSE! And would you look at this? Isn't this beautiful? It's design is made to mimic the Wallpaper Embossing Folder and it even has Expresso Striped Ribbon sewn on it! And of course in Momento Mall, yep, we were able to purchase THE MATCHING WALLET~

Some more swaps.....

Most, if not all the swaps I recieved were from the Ocassions Mini or Sellabration mini.....there are so many that can "help" you decide "if you need a stamp set or not..." lol

Swap cards

Just a couple of pictures today on some great swaps I received.....

More "Inspiration Women"

Okay, so that last post didn't hold them all, but here are a few more......
