I can't believe that this time next week I will be in Brisbane having a cuppa with my good friend and downline Jean!! We are just beside ourselves with excitement and are counting down the days! Since I have been busy getting all my swaps labelled ect, I haven't had much time to actually make a card as such. So, I thought instead I would just upload pics of my swaps for you all to see! Don't be shy if you see me at convention - please come and say Hi! - I would love to swap with you! The bag above I have decorated for someone I will see at convention - hope she likes it - its filled with all types of special goodies for her!!
There are all my card fronts - I am really pleased with how they all turned out!
These are my ATC's, Big Clippie Pouches, Magnetic Bookmarks and the little tiny wee scallop punch bags filled with M&M's!
This is a close up of the little tiny bags!! I have absolutely no idea how I am going to pack these so that they travel safely with me - please if you have any suggestions for me - leave a comment! lol

that bag looks so pretty!!! Whoever receives it, will surely be thrilled.
goodness me, you have certainly been very very busy getting things ready for the convention! I hope that you and Jean will have lots of fun there!
I love these swaps, I just wish i was able to go this year. Oh well, maybe next year...
With packing your swaps is there anyway you could use one of the boxes that the catalogues came in and pack it in the middle of your bag with all your clothes around it? You might still have to carry the gorgeous gift bag but it would probably keep the scallop bags etc safe
WOW, Karen you swaps are amazing, you have been busy!
I wish I was attending, maybe next year!
Hope you and Jean have a blast and look forward to hearing all about convention!
Have a blast!
Take Care, (((hugs))) XX
Oooohh, I hope the bag's for me!
They all look so great. I cant believe how many you made. Maybe I should make a few more...
Anyway, looking forward to meeting you in person next Friday!

Wow, you have been very busy with swaps. Well done and they are all stunning. Enjoy Convention - I'm sure you will have the best time.
My, you have been very busy. They all look great and I'm sure everyone will want to swap with you!
You might have to take the M&M's on board with you - but remember, NO eating them !! LOL
Oh my gosh Karen ... you're going to put us all to shame. Your swaps are just gorgeous. I had better get cracking before next week. Can't wait to say hi in person.

Hi Karen, LOVE your swaps! You did a great job! I was wondering what those cute little grasshopper thingies are to the left and right of the photo? Bookmarks? Candy Covers? Let me know the details if you have the chance! We're busy starting to think about Convention here in the US. We still have to wait 4 more months though. :-( I'm really hoping to go this year... Hope you have a great time! We'll all look forward to hearing the great stuff you learned there.-
Wow Karen...you have done soooo much! My small amount of swaps looks sad next to yours! LOL I hope that bag is for me too! I looks lovely! Can't wait to see you on Thursday night! Only 6 more sleeps!
Love Chrissie
