FUN Pics from our crop @ SDV

Here are some more pictures of the Scrappers Dream Vacation at the Disney Resort. We had a huge crop room, and the grounds at the Contemporary as you can see were beautiful.

Back from SDV in Orlando!!

All I can say is "What A Blast" it is always so much fun to just scrap, eat and chat all day long with great friends and meet new girlies.

Everyone was soooo nice, I had an awesome time. I always feel a little sad as I drive away because I always make new friends and meet my old buddies. I received lots of very nice compliments on my classes too and that is always a good feeling. So I want to thank those ladies that signed up for my classes.

Here are some pics of the girlies in my classes. We all had a good time and it was great meeting them all.

As I mentioned in class. Please leave your comment and I will pick a name out of a hat and that person will win lots of BLOG CANDY!!! So dont forget to leave a comment

The Mermaids are Coming!!

This is a sneak peek of my next project. I am using the brand new "Scrap Within Reach" papers which even though it wasnt meant to be for an underwater layout ... for me it fits (LOL). You will see what I mean when I finish the layout.

I am using some of the "Paper Boy" collection and some of the "Cottage" collection for the layout. I also used alot of Mark Richards bling which has a great selection and is very reasonably priced.

I am packing to go to the Orlando Scrappers Dream Vacation where I will be teaching two classes, so I will not finish this cute mermaid layout till I get back. So in the meantime, check out the cute DOUBLE SIDED papers from Scrap Within Reach

CHA ORLANDO SHOW PICS

Well I had a great time at CHA ... there are so many beautiful products and talented designers out there that it makes my head spin. I wanted to share some of my favorite samples with you.

I also went to dinner with Debbie Gunion and the "Girls" at Bucca di Peppo. We were seated in the "POPE" room. The ladies from Stampendous and Mr. Chris joined us and we had a great time trying to move the lazy suzanne in the middle of the table so the "POPE" wasnt staring at us while we ate.

There were alot of awesome make-n-takes at all the booths, and they were all packed waiting and people waiting in line to get their turn. Here is a picture of the make n take at Nikki Silvils booth.

Here are some pictures of samples from Nikki Silvils, 7 Gypsies and Tim Holtz. There were so many beautiful samples made by such talented people ... I just wanted to stare at them and hang out, but I had to break away because I was working the show and had appointments to get to (LOL)
