What
a fun weekend!! My friend, Cheryl, came
to visit from Charlotte, NC and we joined a group of our friends for a
delicious supper at the new Monterey Mexican Restaurant. Cheryl and I shared a Fajita for Two. Yum!
After this we headed to Beverly’s house where we all sat with our
computers, watching TV, and visiting.
Needless to say, I fell asleep in the chair, and woke up there the next
morning all covered up. My friends take
such good care of me.
Saturday
we were off to Georgia for the stamp convention. It wasn’t a large show but still a lot to
see. I picked up a few new embossing
folders (someday I will have to count how many of these I have – or not), two
new stamps, and more cardstock. I also found
some lovely paper at Marco’s that I think will be perfect for those wedding
items I am working on for my daughter.
The
delight of the convention was getting to meet my fellow Sparkle N Sprinkle
designers, AnneTemple and Brigita (Gita) Skopas. We had
lunch together and I really enjoyed visiting with them. I think I talked their heads off. I sure hope we can spend more time together
in the future.
After
the show we headed to Archiver’s. On the
way there we spotted a Hallmark Outlet and decided to peek in. How disappointing to find out that it had
nothing to do with cards and ornaments. It
was like a junky outlet store, though I did get a great deal on a K-cup holder. Then on to Archiver’s, where I found a great
holder for my Spectrum Noir markers.
We
did some additional shopping and, of course, had a great dinner together before
we headed home. Here’s to a great end to
a fantastic day with the best friends a woman could ever have!!
Just
a reminder - I posted the promised tutorial for my frog card on the Sparkle N Sprinkle blog today, as promised. Check
it out.
Thanks for stopping by.
