Back from Convention

Convention just flew by!  It was my very first convention and because it was the 25th Anniversary of Stampin' Up, it was over the top.  There is really too much to share.  I worked like crazy on swaps in the days leading up to convention.  I made cards for two organized swaps and card fronts for general swapping.   These were my general swaps.  My Big Shot and punches really got a work out.


 
The next two cards were for the organized swaps.  The first was a New DSP swap. 
 
This second was for a WOW card swap.  I procrastinated on this one and had a hard time coming up with supplies for 20 cards.  I was still putting them together on my plane ride out to Salt Lake City!
 


 
I don't really know if it qualifies as a WOW card but it is a special type of card.  I thought the criss- cross card was fun and I paired it with the stained-glass technique.  Usually I stay away from embossing because it always sounds like a lot of work to me.  Last week I was an embossing fool!
 
Hope you enjoy looking at my convention creations.  I'll be back tomorrow to tell you about some exciting new additions to the Stampin' Up product line. 
 
Thanks for stopping by!
