Scrapfest fun with pictures

I went to Scrapfest this past Saturday and met up with many friends and had a wonderful time! I got to meet 2 gals for the first time  from the Hero Arts Flicker group, Trinh and Robin and got to see Anita again too.  And of course I met up with my local peeps Barb and Linda- it's always great to see them. I also ran into Jenn B. early in the day but she had to scoot and get home and I forgot to get a picture of her...darn it!

Barb and I did a couple of make and takes but honestly the lines were incredibly long this year so unfortunately we passed up some that we really wanted to do. So we went a did a bit of shopping at Archivers instead!! Ya have to shop at Scrapfest- right? We actually went 2 times....gotta use those coupons!


                                        




    I picked up these 2 Hero Arts stamp sets!Love those new matching dies on the Christmas set- going to have lots of fun playing with them.










All of us Hero Arts Flicker girls met up with Shari and Jennifer at the end of the day and had a lovely dinner at the Twin City Grill. Here I am with Shari after dinner.  She is so nice and told us lots of funny stories!

                                Here is an other dinner shot with Barb, Shari, Jennifer, and Linda!


                                   We all swapped friend themed cards after dinner as well- that was so fun!

                      Here is a shot of some of the CUTE cards Doodlebug had at their make n take booth.

We all did the 2 Hero Arts stamping classes and they were a blast. We made 3 cards in each class and of course learned many new inking techniques- Jennifer and Shari always have the best ideas! Here is a picture of one of the cards we made. I LOVE the main image stamp here- so cute. My inking didn't turn out the best so I added the big felt snowflake to cover up my boo boo.

Scrapfest was a blast again this year!!  A great day to get together and meet new and old friends and of course shop and see all the new products out there! I"ll be going again next year.....maybe I'll meet you there!
