Three days into the New Year and I’ve already made changes with my resolutions for 2008. The good news is that I now feel stronger about the possibility of actually achieving those goals.

I have tried to compile a list of conventions and festivals for 2008. There are so many to choose from and they all look like a great resource to inspire and excite you. I’m sure it means buying more, but many of these conventions have door prizes, goody bags, give aways, classes, and fun. You can find the list and simple directions as to what to expect at a convention or fair here:

Just as a reminder, I am continuing to take names of anyone interested in joining in on the Valentine’s Day Card swap. The rules are simple. The swap includes one rubber stamped Valentine’s Day card with envelope and one Valentine’s Day accessory valued under $5. (A rubber stamp, brads, templates, etc) Check out the basic ideas of the swap in this article:

Further rules and sign up for the swap can be found in the forum. It is free to participate, but you must sign in as member.
