A Rose Swap
Well Convention is all over for the year and it was a great couple of days, It all went so fast but I am looking forward to next year already which will be in Sydney {yay}. It was wonderful meeting new friends and catching up with old ones, I shared the first Convention experience with two of my wonderful downlines Kylie and Maree {Hi Girls} and hoping that more of my team will attend the next Convention {hint, hint to the others}. As it was my first SU Convention I did not know what to expect but I was not disappointed. One of the many highlights was taking part in card swaps I was so happy with all the card swaps I came home with, I was a little slow to start swapping due to fear of people not wanting to swap with me after I swapped with a few girls I knew I was fine. I just thought I would share my swap card with you here…. I made 64 of these….{am I Crazy or what!!!!!!!!!!}

Great card. Love your work.
Wow, thats wicked, I love your bow, how did you get it so perfect!
Yep, you’re crazy all right! LOL
Your swap was THE best swap of the entire Convention…I think I’ll frame mine ;o)
Stunning Teneale! I was lucky enough to see an original you swapped with Marelle. You always do such amazing work and you inspire me. Chris xo
Beautiful card as always. What an task 64 cards you must have been exhausted. Lovely ribbon tying. Wish I attended convention (changed my mind at the last minute).
Hi Teneale
I lurk on your blog and when I read that you were coming to convention it was YOUR swap that I wanted to get the most. I knew it would be beautiful and I was so glad that I was one of the lucky 64 to receive one. THANK YOU!

I swapped with you at Sydney Regional and loved my swap but unfortunatley i missed out swapping with you at Convention. But i sure wish i had. Love this card.
Wow, I bet the other demoes wished you’d made 500 swaps, an absolutely gorgeous card, as usual!
who wouldn’t want to swap that?? you must be mad cutting 64 of those roses out tho!!
You were right in an earlier blog when you mentioned how many layers you had in your swap card!! This is beautiful. I’m not a crazy big fan of roses, but love the bella DSP and love the card you’ve made here. HOW DID YOU GET SUCH A PERFECT BOW!! I really need to work on my bow technique. xxx
Hi Teneale!
It was fantastic to meet you at convention and I am sooooooo thrilled to have gotten one of your gorgeous swaps! I agree with Marelle – I think it was THE BEST swap of convention!
Luv Karen

It is just beautiful Teneale. I meant to come and find you at convention to say how much I LOVE your gorgeous cards but it was Sunday before I knew it so will have to tell you here instead!
Take care, Sue
Hi Teneale I am so glad that you yelled out to me to swap cause i would have forgotten with the hype and all and of course i would have been sooo disappointed but i don’t have to be cause i got one of your beautiful cards
thanks so much.
Hi Teneale,
Just had to drop by and say it was so special meeting you at convention, what a talented and lovely lady you are! Your swap is just gorgeous – so disappointed I wasn’t the lucky recipient of one – will make sure I get one in Sydney 2010! I trust this year is a wonderful one for you, and many thanks for the beautiful inspiration you share with us all.
Love Ngaire
Hey Teneale,
I was thrilled to see you at Convention.
You’re card is just stunning… as usual. 
Wow, this card is even more fab then the last card. I am so happy I found this site. Great work.
You make such beautiful cards, Teneale. This one caught my eye on Splitcoast Stampers. It will make the perfect Mother’s Day card. I hope you don’t mind…
Definitly crazy! But very, very cool crazy!
I was one of the lucky demos who managed to get my hands on this fabulous card at convention, and believe it or not, but it looks even better in real life!! Thanks Teneale, it’s just fabulous! Sharlene
I cannot believe you made 64 of those?!?! It looks amazing! Can’t say I had the pleasure of getting amazing swaps like that at events. The ladies you swapped with must have been over the moon when they saw what you were handing to them!
TFS!
Cindy
P.S. LOVE that ribbon bow!
