I am starting to put together a list what I need to take with me to my first convention. I have two lists and advice from two scrapbookers.
When I come up with it I will post it here and let you know if it works.
Have a blessed day.

I finally got back into blogger.
Hello, Welcome to my scrapbook and card making BLOG. I have been away far too long.
Update. My dear friend M has been giving me support and pushing as well to get me out of my rut after surgery. It is working.
She has encouraged me to join her card exchange group. Last week we choose a potential card and I made an example.
Yesterday I started to create the cards. First I stamped a special rose on white card stock. Then I embossed a green background. Next white card stock was cut for the body of the card. I kept the hardest part for last. The stamp has a matching die that makes a three dimensional rose. I had several stamped papers that were not acceptable and I practiced. Then I used the die to cut the cut the good papers. I could have done better and may make additional stamped papers before finishing the cards.
I am in a holding position on the next step. I need to use pop ups to hold the die dimensional areas up and then fasten the various layers together.
Monday is my goal.
Ta da. Have a great day.
