Bella Blvd event is She Loves Color event in October in Milwaukee. There might be seats still available.
Ali Edwards has Story Camp - there's one in Oct but it's very limited and sells out pretty quickly.

I have gone to a scrapbook convention just about every year. I have not made it so far this year. I am debating whether or not I need to go to the one next month.
They have a relatively small stamp convention in January here, then Scrapbook Expo in March, and GASC in June. Last year I went to all 3. Of the 3, I liked Scrapbook Expo the best. I think it had the most vendors. However, I did spend plenty of money at each of them.
I don't crop at conventions. Occasionally I take a class. Mostly the shopping is the reason that I go.
It's more fun to go with a friend if you can. Last year I went to all 3 conventions by myself. It was still worth going.

We have the Stampaway convention here in Cincinnati August 10th and 11th. It is mostly Stamps but many booths usually have scrapbooking supplies too. The big draw for me is The Stampers Anonymous booth Tim Holtz will be demoing.

I’ve never gone to one put on by a scrapbook company. I have been to some of the scrap expos and rubber stamp conventions. The expo in my area decent sized and the stamp convention is small. I’d think if a company puts it on you’d be limited to their products for shopping. The classes might be good though.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I just went to a big paper planner event in Austin. Heidi Swapp spoke and had us all in tears over her son's suicide. It was fun but I really do mostly card making/scrapbooking.

I know that Quick Quotes does a one day event at several locations around the country. I've never been even though there is one in my hometown. I prefer the vendor fair conventions with lots of product to choose from. www.shopquickquotes.com/Convention-Dates-s/2095.htm
