All of those blues were making me blue so I decided to cheer up with a touch of Rose Red. Red is a definite confidence builder! I am packing my red suitcase and heading to Salt Lake City next week for convention. That's the same red suitcase I took to Leadership in January. When I landed in Nashville, I went to a shuttle desk and said I was an SU! demo who needed a ride to the Gaylord. I took out money for a ticket but the clerk said, "Oh honey don't worry about it. It's all taken care of. Your friends are on the first bus out front. Just hurry and jump right on it!" So I did!
As I sat down to catch my breath, I caught bits of conversation around me - incentive trips, booking workshops and recipes.......recipes? Everyone was smiling, friendly and excited but they were definitely talking about making dip! I was on a bus full of Tastefully Simple demos also headed to the Gaylord for a conference after a Meet and Greet event at the airport! No problem - I had a red suitcase, confidence and plenty of experience consuming dip to see me through!
Let's not do that in SLC this year! :) I think the direction you want to head is to the beach from your card! Me too! It's great and I love the touch of red!! I'll look for your red suitcase in the airport Wed!

Hilarious story! If you don't arrive at The Plaza on time, Ginger, Mike and I will come looking for you! Fabulous card! I love the pop of red with the blues!
ReplyDeleteGreat story! I hope to catch up with you in SLC. This card is just fantastic, I never would have paired the flip flops with this set, but you, as always, have just made this look like they were made for each other.

ReplyDeleteWhat a hilarious story!!! I can just picture you on that bus!!! Your card is so fun and wonderful. I love the flip flops on top! I will have to add a touch of red to my next blue card.... ooops first you have to see the blue and yellow one. I love your card. Hugs,
ReplyDeleteLinda, I am so upset that the year you are going to Convention I am not. At some point we will have to coordinate attendance. I love this card and so glad you punched up all the blues with the red. Just fabulous. Your ribbon treatment caught my eye right away. And by the way, my suitcase is RED!
ReplyDeleteLinda, I love this card, it's adorable. Especially how you added the red in it and how you used the arrow pointing to the little shoes, little stars, and ruffle along the bottom. Also, have fun at convention.
ReplyDeleteThe Gaylord is gorgeous just like your card! Love the scrunchy ribbon and the bit of red! Your are too funny ... love your post!
ReplyDeleteThe blues look great with a pop of color!!
ReplyDeleteHugs, M
Can't take my eyes off those cute little sandals! I wonder where they are going off to!!
