Welcome!!

Good evening happy fellow stampers!

I am getting back into the blogging mode - so while I am on a learning curve, please bear with me.

Getting my blog back up and running was all due to my attendance at my very first Stamp'in Up Convention held last month in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. 

I met so many wonderful, like-minded people (both guys and gals)...and to all of you new stamping buddies/friends I met, and who get to read this blog entry, a huge hug from me to you!!! 

Thank you all for your inspiration, sharing, creative loving hearts, and sheer inspiration (and yes, the beautiful energy during those hectic days and nights - no wonder some of my fellow stampers who stayed home forgot to mention a small, oh so wee detail, to keep in mind during convention attendance -you are up around 5:30 a.m. and to bed around 1:30 a.m.ish or so! Oh, and no need to worry about missing exercise class - all the foot miles of walking/rushing to/from/between events gives even the most fit individual a run for his/her money! - wait till next year gang!)  I LOVED IT ALL!!!!

So, I now present to you the card I made 81+ times for my Late Nite Stampers swap (which was so fun to do!)
