The gifts keep coming from Stampin' Up!
Look at these darling things they sent us to travel with!
A large travel carry on bag with a darling flower lining.
Then the other day I got my travel tickets, tags , etc in this darling matching pouch. How fun is that!
OK, here is the not so fun part. I have been working diligently for WEEKS making my 135 card fronts for my swaps! You see on one night we have a big pajama party and can swap out cards if we choose to. I was hesitant but my little girl did not want me to be left out and said she would help. Well she is so social and not around much to be of any help.
My wonderful customer, Patty came over to help me one day and my customer Kerry stopped by that day to pay me and pitched in too. My awesome downline Evelyn, offered to help but I finished early with my little girl doing the gluing part with her tiny,little fingers. For the most part, I did them on my own and what a chore, but this way I won't be left out on the Pajama Party Card Swap and get to bring home 135 card fronts, which will be great to get workshop ideas for!
Here they are all packed up in plastic containers and ready to go. They take up my entire carry on bag that they sent me .
I am the type that has to be ready before an event!!
I will be sure to take photos while I am gone and share them when I get back.
Am I excited? Not yet.
Am I nervous? Very!!
Am I outgoing and friendly? VERY!
But I am also VERY shy when I am in a large group of people who already know each other!!
Oh I forgot to add, the best part that I am so excited about, is I get to meet Bridget Lopez , my blogging and message board friend! She is coming to the airport to meet me for about 5 minutes before I have to catch a bus! I am so excited! I love that girl!! Too bad she can't bring her 4 boys with her!!
