Well wasn't that an awesome tour,

The links are gone for this tour,
so I hope you bookmarked all your favorites.
Our next tour will be July 27 and 28.
It will coincide with the launch of the yearly US Ideas Book Catalog,
so be sure to stop back here in July for updates!
Now for Blog Candy, this is the first time I am offering it,
we recently had a Stampin' Up! Convention right
here in Canberra, Australia on May 1-2 and was it
AWESOME or what!!!
I picked up some goodies from Memento Mall,
these items are exclusive to Convention, so
you get a chance to win something from the stash below.
You could live anywhere in the world and are
eligible to play, you won't know what you've won,
it will turn up in the mail, how cool is that.
All you have to do is enter comments on this page only and
you will be eligible to be in the draw,
I will pick 3 winners and they will also
receive one of the cards below.
P.S. you don't need to own a blog to be able to play,
you just need to be able to email me when you have won.
Go right to the bottom of this update and click on COMMENTS
only comments appearing on this page will qualify.
You have until Wednesday May 20th midnight to enter your comments.
I have taken into consideration the time zone factor so it will be
Thursday for me that I will draw the winner.
You will then contact me via email with your postal address
by Friday May 22, if I do not get an email from the
winners by May 23, Saturday I will redraw.

Hi Bridget, Loved the pink Flower Pot best, but then I'm a pink girl :-) Always being the kind, generous one Bridget.... I think this little quote sums up Bridget... (wonder where I got it from)

by how he treats those who can do nothing for him ~ James D. Miles

Hi Bridget,
Lovely of you to share your convention loot with an international audience. I'm betting that the drool is showing up just by osmosis so I hope you are wearing your "Wellies" (not sure how to spell that just that that's what my mom calls her gardening and rain boots). It hadn't occured to me to use the Embrace Life flowers in this way until I saw your entry for the blog hop. Stellar idea!
The Aussie SU Con looked awesome from the pictures I've been seeing on Aussie friends blogs. I think I saw you in some of the pictures too.
Thanks again and mucho visitors couldn't happen to a nicer and more talented lady. Bet you make 100,000 within the year!
Hugs from a sister demo ...
Cheers - Jean
I love the flower pot. Can you email the instructions (template). I would love to try these. How sweet you are to offer some blog candy from convention. Just what is that little pink thing? A little calculator?

Hi Bridget,
Great cards. I love the flower pot idea especially the pink one.
Please put my name in the draw for the blog candy.
Hi Bridget! Great flower pot cards ! I went to Convention but- alas!- had spent all my money just getting there- so no cash for Memento Mall! Would love to win something! Thanks for the offer!
Hi Bridget, I didn't get to convention this year, but I am glad you all had such a fabulous tim! Thankyou for sharing your cards and your blog candy is a super idea. I saw the bog Tour link so I will go have sneak a peak! Blog tours seem to be the in thing at the moment, and I think they are a fabulous idea.
Take care and have a stampy day :)

I have loved reading about the SU! Convention and seeing the pics. Love the cards you have made with the Embrace Life set too.
I love the colour combinations you have used. Purple is so me! It sounds like you had a blast at convention this year. Bring on Sydney 2010..
Hello Bridget I would like the pencil case please - you know my address ROFL!!!! I was so mad I missed out on those :-( Last year there was still heaps left on the
2nd day. Gotta be quick! When I go through my swaps your cards are the ones that stand out so much- they are just beautiful and I'm going to have a go at the flower pot cards!
Take care

Beautiful cards!! I have to get this set!
the way you have used your oval punches in the flower pot cards is very clever, it looks like pretty ribbon.
Thanks for sharing your blog about the convention. Nice idea for a great stamp set.
Hey girlfriend, love those plant pot cards, you did an awesome job on them.
And BLOG candy, you rock.
I was a bit curious as to the Kiwi flower pot - then I realised you guys call that colour green Kiwi - don't you??
Lovely cards :-)
How exciting, I get to tell my friends and family I'm emailing someone in Australia! Pretty exciting for someone in the southern part of Ohio!! I love checking out your blog each day. Fifth Ave. Floral is my favorite stamp set right now so I am loving what you have done with that set. Thanks for the great ideas,
Mikesgal
