I am still reeling from all I learned at the Stampin' Up! Convention 2012.  I have so much information rolling in my head.  Don't forget to look down a couple  of posts and watch the "I AM" Video.  It is absolutely GREAT!

Here are the classes I took:

• I AM MAKING MONEY Pam Morgan
• I AM A LEADER Brian Pilling
• I AM A BABY BOOMER Jason Dorsey
• I AM HAVING FUN! Shannon West
• I AM INSPIRED Donna Griffith
• I AM SAVVY  Meg Wheeler, Dawn Griffin, & Laura Milligan
• I AM DOING BUSINESS MY WAY - Bonnie Thurber, Ronda Wade, & Tami White

This is just the greatest song I have heard for a commercial.  Stampin' Up! did a great job lip syncing to this.  Watch it and let me know what you think!!

Wow, finally back from convention.  Lisa and I had such a GREAT time.  We met lots of new friends and got lots of swaps.  Our upline, Amy Celona, made us the most adorable purses out of Stampin' Up! material.  Everyone wanted one too!

Here are pictures of the new bags Stampin' Up! offered in Momento Mall.  Of course, I got several of each..... go figure.

I didn't get to post any swaps yet, so here are a few pictures.

Hope to get more posted tonight.

Project Instructions

Select three prints and one glitter solid. Punch two sets of circles for each eye using a ½", 1", 1 ¾" and 2" circle punch (total of four circles for each eye). Adhere these together and attach to the bag 2½" up from the bottom.

Cut a small triangle from a coordinating print; adhere in place just under the eyes.

Take the top section of the bag. Fold it over just above the eyes to create a crease. Extend the top of the bag back up. Fold the corners in to create a triangular top and fold back down above the eyes. Fasten in place using Glue Dots® or an adhesive foam square. 

Cut a square from a final piece of printed paper from the stack, ensuring that it is at least ¼" smaller than the width of the triangle. Fold the square in half diagonally and lay it over the top of the bag, with ½ of it showing in the front and the rest in the back.

Embellish your owl by adding a “bow tie” or “hair bow” with the gingham or polka dot prints.

Repeat as needed.

Insert your surprise, reseal, and enjoy handing out your party favors!

Tips

Customize your owls for girls or boys -- hair bows for girls and bow ties for boys keep things fun and extra cute!
