What an exciting few days I’ve just had at European Convention, which was held in the wonderful city of Brussels this year …. and my goodness, you can’t say that every other shop is a chocolate shop, but almost every one. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so much chocolate in one place …..
Swaps are a big thing at any Stampin’ Up! event I wanted this years swaps to have a slight twist on them. I used the 25 days Stamp Set that is promoted for making an Advent Calendar for the base of my card swap to create a quirky New Year’s card.
Thankfully she loved it … but perhaps a little too much, as she declared that she’d not be using it, through fear of spoiling it.
We met some lovely people there. Demonstrators from all over Europe. Some who I’ve met before or spoken with over the internet and others I met for the first time, but will most certainly be looking out for again … but there’s one person who offers great support and guidance and has been there from the word go ….. Chris Lee from our Demonstrator Support Office and I couldn’t allow Convention to pass without an Annual catch up with him.

What a darling album! Would love to know how to make it. Just found your blog from your tip on the keepsake box – excellent! Thank you for the inspiration:)
Oh Judi, please forgive my delayed reply, it's been mad busy here since Convention. Thank you for your kind words and I'm so pleased that you found my Curvy Keepsake Box tip useful. You'll save a whole heap of card stock from cutting them this way.
The album was made following a Youtube video by a fello Demonstrator, Traci Cornellius. Her instructions are ever so easy to follow … pop over and give it a try for yourself …. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YaRvc7A7vo
