I went up for a good part of the day & was so lucky to be able to spend some time with my sweet friend, Ashley (from the Etsy Inspired Challenge Blog and Heart Hugs Designs) and I asked her to join me at the event. I had planned to go a little nuts, so I made sure my credit card could handle it before doing all my shopping. :)
It was a really nice time, though. There were a lot of shoppers - super nice turnout!! Way to support your LSS, Elk Grove!! Wooo! There were make n' takes (which we stood in line for) and cookies and we found out some hot & exciting news about the new Tim Holtz product line which is to debut at CHA!! CAN'T WAIT!!!
But the new stamps....are just gorgeous. So many really beautiful backgrounds, clings, woodmounts, clear... the options are endless. My shopping bag weighed a ton. I bought a bunch of the new clings, the new Silhouette Grass wooodmount stamp (so glad I bought that as they sold out really quickly), and 2 sentiment sets. I even received quite a few freebies, too. It was just a great time. So happy I went, got to spend a bit of time with Ashley, and got my mind off of my stresses for a bit.
Of course, then I was up til the wee hours last night/this morning finishing my Christmas cards (ugh!), but they're at least done and on the way. Hope they brighten your day a little knowing how much YOU brighten my life, my friends.
Leaving for Las Vegas tomorrow to spend my Christmas with my mom & dad. So, until I get back...Merry Christmas my beloved friends. Thank you for all your prayers, good thoughts, happy vibes. Every last one of them were (and are) appreciated. It's for people like you that I sit here and smile today. Many hugs to you, and blessings to you as you celebrate (however you do...IF you do) on Christmas.
Much love,
