By the time you read this I will be in Salt Lake City anxiously awaiting the start of the Stampin' Up! Convention.

All the stress of preparing for the event will be forgotten and replaced by feeling of excitement and happiness.  Friendships will be rekindled and new ones made.  I will be surrounded by so much creative energy and I plan to soak it all in.  Wouldn't it be great to have a creativity reservoir?  I plan to post an occasional update to my Facebook page  https://www.facebook.com/astheinkdries.  Most of all I just want to bask in the comraderie and energy of being surrounded by other people who love working with their hands and making stuff with stamps, ink and paper. Sounds pretty awesome, right?  A little part of me will have wished that I made more swaps or did more of whatever but I am going to really try and just focus on being there and soaking it all in.   Wish me luck.
