Good morning to you all
So I am at the Minneapolis airport right now waiting on my connecting flight home
Whow it's been a week I tell you
My friends Lee and Sandi have been the recipient of so many wonderful awards
Let say this
I am Soooo proud of them
Lee received an amazing award yesterday but I can't share that yet cause I think it should come from her blog before I post it!!!
Let me say this I am so honored to be her friend sigh!!!
It was sad to say good bye to my friends but I look forward to our next get together real soon!!!
Soooooo you ask about BLOG candy right??
I have a photo with a HINT to the blog candy
Everything In the photo is what we received as a convention attendee oh yes see that's why you Wanta be a demonstrator!!!!
I know it lol
Anyway there is one item in these treasures that will be yours if you are the lucky blog candy winner
I also have a special gift from momento mall
But I was not able to photograph that cause I was in a hurry last night to pack as I had to be in a taxi by 3:30am!!!
My second photo is of Lee and Susan at our favorite italian restaurant in Salt Lake City
The third and fourth photo of our a nice dinner at Christopher's don't them raviolis look scrumptious??
It was so yhummmy not mention the great time we spent with fellow demonstrators
The last photo is a the new dies that will be available to you in August 1st with the champaign glitter paper
Ouh love the glitter paper it will make amazing snow flakes and other Christmas cards
Oh yes Christmas card buffet event is coming - hope you will attend it will be on Sunday August 19th starting at 1:00pm
The cards will range between $2.00 to $5.00 each. You will get to select the cards you want to make
Should be so much fun!!
Everyone is welcome I just need you to email me if you are attending
stampinstressaway@me.com
Hope you will be able to come stamp and get a head start on them Christmas cards!!!
So that will do for me for today
However i do want to say that i will be unable to post tomorrow
You See on Tuesday (first day I arrived in salt lake city) I received a phone call that Rex's sister's son was a fatal car accident
Very very sad. Jason was only 29 years old
So very tragic for the Sluchinski and the Stout family - loosing a child is the hardest thing I personally think and my heart goes out to Randy and Kathy as well as to Chad his older brother and Leanna his younger sister. Jason also leaves behind a little girl - tear!
Therefore I will be attending Jason's service tomorrow with my family.
Hope you all understand and look forward to reading your comments so you can have a chance to win BLOG candy!!!
The draw will be on Saturday July 28th, 2012!
I wish you all an amazing Sunday
Embossed hug from me
Carole'Anne Sluchinski

Carole'Anne, I'm so sorry to hear about your nephew. That had to be hard to be in the middle of something so exciting as Convention, then to receive such terrible news. I pray for his family, especially his daughter.

My heart hurts thinking of that poor little girl growing up without a daddy. I hurt thinking of a family without a son, cousin, brother, friend. I am praying for you.

You are taking a pretty good haul home with you. Can't wait to see what comes of it!
Wish that I could attend your Christmas class!
