Oh what a day!

What an amazing experience I had this weekend. If you haven't visited my Classes Blog, I've been planning a NSB Day crop at one of our local hotels and it went down this past Saturday. PHEW! I'm tuckered out! It ran from 9am to 5pm and we had challenges & contests, prizes & giveaways. I taught 6 classes that were so much fun and we had a couple of mini-stores set up for a little shopping too! Boy it was busy.

I remember watching a video post on Donna Downey's blog after her Inspired event last week and laughed to myself when she confessed that she didn't take a single photo. I thought, that's really easy to avoid...but you know, I didn't get any either! So technically, other than my tired feet and my totally disheveled studio, there's no evidence of the event!

I've already booked the same location for next year's event and I'm hoping to get more people to attend. We'll have a vendor's fair (gotta love the shopping!) and maybe it'll be over 2 days...man, I feel tired just thinking about teaching for 2 solid days!

A big warm thank you to everyone who was with us for the day (a very special thank you to my husband, Ray for keeping an eye on things when I was out of the main room teaching) and thank you to the hotel staff for helping me put on such a fun day. Can't wait for next year!!!

If you live in the Whitehorse area (or neighboring communities) the 20% discount on store merchandise is good for the entire month but restricted to in-person purchases (online sales do not qualify). Each time you make a purchase, your name is entered into the draw for 6 months of FREE couture collections! If you want to get your name in the draw, the studio is open Mon, Weds & Fri 10-5 and any other time by appointment. If you purchased goods at the Crop and already turned in your coupon, you can make additional submissions with each purchase so you can enter more than once!

Open Crop night is scheduled to run as usual this coming Wednesday so c'mon out and bring a page or two to work on. Hopefully I'm able to put the studio back together by then!

Happy National Scrapbooking Month everyone!
