The whole event was hosted by Michelle, the creative mind behind CAS-ual Fridays Stamps. She is a truly wonderful lady - a great hostess and an amazing talent. I have to admit to getting a quick sneak peek of some new stuff that's coming from CAS-ual Fridays and it's going to be a great release. They started peeks today on their blog!
And to make it all even more amazing, the wonderful Stacey Schafer came in for the event (we gave her honorary Coloradan status for the day). We managed to do quite a bit of craft shopping and ate some huge meals (even after the feast shown above). I took her to the airport early this morning so the weekend is officially over!!!
I had thought that she and I might spend a little more time celebrating over drinks - this was the first time we had met in person!! But I totally wore out by the end of each day with all of the crafting craziness!! I had made this card for her in advance of our wild times! (Stamps by Paper Smooches)
I did use the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches for this card and the sequins and chevrons from the CAS-ual Fridays challenge.
I am sure you all had a wonderful day! I certainly looks like it. Happy for you and a teensy bit envious too. ;)
