CKC Convention - Mesa Fun, Fun, Fun!!!
My sassy friend, Ilene, and sweet friend, Gwen, @ our CKC Convention in Mesa on Friday morning. Suffice it to say that we had a fabulous time, got loads of exercise walking & "weight lifting" (our totes full of product & class supplies), had 2 fantastic classes (not bad - 2 out of 3), were totally exhausted by Sat. @ 5:00 p.m. and spent waaaay too much money (but please don't tell our hubbies)!!! ;-) Though we were heartbroken that Spellbinders did not host a booth, we still managed to have a great time, find lots of bargains, and enjoy ourselves tremendously! The Technique Tuesday card class, A Greeting for Every Reason, was AWESOME, both in terms of product, techniques, prizes, useful tips and quality teaching! Best teacher I've ever had in any class (a former college professor, so not surprising)! Our Paper Crafts Joy of Card Making class by Phoenix's own Kim Kesti was equally fabulous!
Only thing better would have been IF Deva and Caryn could have joined us! Judy was also there with her BFF Kristi from TX, but they took different classes & though we saw them, I forgot to take their picture - darn! If you ever get an opportunity to attend a CKC Convention anywhere, we wholeheartedly recommend it!!!
Also pictured are the adorable free Make 'n Takes hosted by Scrapbooks, Etc., a different one each day!

The exquisite Swiss Dots embossing folder, MS Doily Lace punch and gingham ribbon really popped this card's spring beauty. For even more fun Gwen created a fabulous inside for her card and matching envelope to top it all off!

Designing Deva's March 2009 Get-Together
My photography skills are still sorely lacking, but by being the (albeit lousy) photographer, I didn't have to be in any of the photos -- LOL!!! This was our DD (not Dear Daughters, but Designing Deva's) get-together at my house recently. Thought it was high time we posted some photos here on our blog that's been vacant for far too long! We have 6 in our group. Such a fun bunch & these ladies are so very talented!!! It's always sooo exciting to see what each has brought to share!!! ;-)
