If you remember, this was my first year attending Leadership convention.  I was so excited that I had promoted to Manager and so I had earned an entry into Manager’s Reception.  Well, this year, Manager’s Reception was at Harry Potter’s Wizardly World in Orlando.  Um, yes please!!

The whole weekend was super fun and so I just had to try to start committing at least some of it to a scrapbook.  And I found that the Sent with Love designer paper was a fun way to accent this first photo I scrapped:

The title here was actually made up of two different elements that I cut out of one of the pages of the Sent with Love Designer series paper (and even though you can’t see some of the pieces, I promise you they are from this page :

See… isn’t it perfect?  And oh so true because the adventure of earning Leadership and then going their with my Mom (who is also my upline) was a blast!

Then, for a bit more whimsy on my page, I took squares of the designer paper and cut them in half to make triangles and then stacked them like arrows.  I totally mis-cut some paper, so when I fixed it I had thin strips of paper which I glued as a center piece in the triangles.

Then I used my Tombow liquid glue to draw dots where I wanted my twine to do loopty-loops along the side of my page and then pressed my Island Indigo baker’s twine into the loopy pattern on the right!

The sad thing is that I love this paper and I completely hoarded it and suddenly realized that it is retiring in 2 days!  Yikes!

And since I’m in a reminiscing mood… I thought I’d share some of the other memories I need to scrap:  Harry Potter and Manager’s Reception, Amazing on-stage demonstrations, winning Prize Patrol, and meeting Shelli!
