I had a wonderful roommate from Michigan – Lori Watson – whom I had just chatted with on-line. She had participated in a lot of swaps and was very generous in sharing them all with me. My swap card had a Valentine theme but could easily be modified for another occasion. I used Blushing Bride for the base cardstock, did some embossing with the BigShot and added just a tiny bit of stamping – and a little bling too!
Jane and I (along with about 500 other Stampin’ Up! demonstrators) attended the Managers Reception at the Wild Horse Saloon. Here we are with one of the numerous colourful characters that live there! We enjoyed a lovely BBQ buffet supper and beverages included coke, lemonade, iced tea and water!
And when the conference was over, we were off to the Grand Ole Opry at the Ryman Theatre. It was a very entertaining evening (even though I'm not a fan of country music).
