Well it has been a bit.  lol  I have been trying to get my camera to talk to my computer so I could share pictures of my trip but haven't had any luck.  Convention was awesome!!  I learned so much I am still trying to wrap my head around everything.  I didn't take as many swaps as I wanted but I now see why everyone gets so excited.  There were all kinds of things being swapped.  And I got to see some of my favorite blogging ladies.  Angie from  Chic n' Scratch , Diana from Stampin' With Di, Kimberly from Stampinbythesea, Dawn from dawnsstampingthoughts, Jan from stampspaperscissors, And best of all I saw Shelli in person soshelli!!

It was great and am planning on going again next year!
