hey there bloggers! hope you had a great weekend, and if you were in the workshops at stampers ink we definitely did. thank you to tanya and her team as well as all of the incredible students who shared in our creative adventures. the weekend of workshops were so much fun. i taught 4 workshops over the weekend using just about every ranger product, idea-ology embellishment, all packed with loads of techniques and ideas. the teaching space was perfect, lot's of great lighting, plenty of space, even a banner, and of course filled with very talented students. my sincere appreciation to you all for the willingness to embrace imperfection and simply share in the creativity...
a huge shout out to tanya (owner of stampers ink) for her genuine hospitality, keeping us starbuck'd up, and fed with some good kansas bbq - not to mention the weeks of planning and organizing everything for a flawless teaching event. i have to say that the students this weekend were so kind and thoughtful as well to us with hand-made divine baked goods daily (you know who you are...), and check out these t-shirts a group of ladies had on throughout the weekend - very cool (i want one please)...
so all in all it was a perfect weekend, and now i'm at ranger for the week to get everything wrapped up and finalized for the cha-summer trade show next month. we have some very cool products coming your way so it's time to get sample boards figured out, booth layout designed, and samples created - it's showtime! update: i've added a couple more events to my calendar so be sure to check them out...t!m





Wowza - I can see why you want those t-shirts. Tres cool!

Sorry I missed it, but want to thank you so much for signing my apron that my dear friend Candy was sweet enough to buy for me.

The shirts are amazing. Looks like it was a bunch of fun...too bad it was so far away from me. Maybe next time...

Looks amazing. Counting the days til the cruise (jumping up and down!!!) To think that I'll actually participate in your workshops and join in on the fun (or should I say creative madness?!?) Wondering if they have Starbucks onboard.... Can't wait to see what you have coming next!
