Can You Say Flower Power Party.......

......Yes we can, Stampin' Up! style. On Wednesday evening, during Convention, Stampin' Up! threw a Flower Power Party and challenged everyone to dress in their grooviest clothes.

After the party was over, we went back to our hotel and had our group gift exchange. It has become a tradition that we exchange gifts with each other at Convention. These ladies are so talented and I loved all the wonderful gifts I received.

Today I will show you the gift that I made for everyone in my group that attended convention. I made a magnetic board, customized with the first letter of each person's name. They are 8" x 8" and the ribbon is attached through Jumbo Eyelets.(I used the Crop-A-Dile to punch the holes and set the eyelets). I used Sweet Pea DSP (now retired). There were several different designs.

Magnetic Board



















Close up of Magnets that I made for each, designed based on which piece of paper I used from the DSP pack. I used one button magnet and 2 small clothespins with magnets attached on the back. I covered them in DSP and decorated each one. Also I printed the Convention Logo off the computer and had that hanging off one of the magnets.















So much fun and I will share some of the other gifts with you later on this week. Thanks for stopping by and check back for more convention pictures and swap cards.

Live, Laugh, Love and STAMP!
