Stampin' Convention Day 1

Our day started bright and early Thursday morning as we boarded buses to take us to tour Riverton...the corporate offices of Stampin' Up!  It would be an awesome place to work.  

We even got our picture taken by a Stampin' Up! photographer sitting on a couch in the Legacy Room.

The opening session was last night at 5:00.  The highlight was the convention bag...a beautiful silver and white backpack.

After the opening session we went to the Gathering Place and helped to assemble birthday kits to give to the children that are patients at a local hospital.

We also participated in trying to set a Guiness Book world record by mailing the most stamped greeting cards in a 3 hour period of time.  We were to send a card to someone who has made a difference for us.  Here is Hanna and Andrea, the niece of a fellow stamper, with the postman that was there---ready to take all of the letters to the post office.

It was a great first day.  I can't wait to see what they have in store for us today. 

Here is another one of our swap cards.
