Saturday was the last day of Leadership and we closed the event with a bang, wonderful presentations, lunch, and of course prize patrol! After all who doesn’t love FREE and Stampin’ Up! does pamper it’s demonstrators!!!

This is my friend Marni and I with the Balloon Bash giveaway. (I can’t wait to play with this set after seeing all the fantastic items made with it!)

Here are my goodies – my pillow gifts and prize patrol. I almost had a problem getting it all in my suitcase!!! Great problem to have? right?

And of course I love the bag from this year – it’s so cute and will be great this summer too. It’s such a great size that what didn’t fit in my suitcase fit in my new bag! (If you’re wondering what the shot glass is doing there it’s a little goodie I’m bringing back for my new team members as a surprise. I know it seems odd, but shot glasses are great for holding our Multipurpose Liquid Glue. LOL.)

I just love the Bermuda Bay stripped pattern on the inside and as always that Stampin’ Up! logo makes it extra special.

Here are my roomie and I Kathleen taking our last Leadership selfie as we leave the convention center. Tired for sure after long days of sharing but excited to share what I’ve learned with you!

And to wrap up the night I joined my “adopted” SINKS family for dinner at BJ’s Restaurant

where I had a simply yummy Kale and Roasted Brussel Sprouts Salad with Cajun Shrimp on the advice of my friend.

(Now there is something my hubby would never try! But I’m so glad I did…. LOL)

There is so much from Leadership I’ll share a bit each day this week, but right now I bet you’d love to see some of the great projects I’ve seen there, right?  Check out these boards –

These first cards were made with the Something Borrowed Designer Series Paper and other items that you’ll find on pages 42 and 43 of the Occasions Catalog.

I thought the little dress was too cute and the Sahara Sand 7/8″ Lace Trim  is lovely. I’ve just added it to my must haves list. And if you haven’t seen the Something Borrowed Embellishments you won’t be disappointed since they are gorgeous!

These cards were all done with our NEW Colorbox Chalk Ink Pads that you’ll find on page 25. They are soooo cool!!! I’ll be using them as part as my up coming Coffee & Cards and Technique Class in March so you’ll be able to try them for yourself too!

And these projects using the Sweet Dreams Designer Series Paper show you it’s not just for baby! Look at these all occasions projects – you definitely don’t think baby.
