There are few places better than the Stamp & Scrapbook Expo for paper crafters! The latest & greatest – the tried & true – the fancy machines and all the thing-a-mah-bobs – all that pretty paper – all that shiny bling! Seeing all the vendors we love & embracing all the new vendors taking that brave step & finally venturing out on their own! Seeing smiling faces – people doing what they truly enjoy!! Women from 90, to a few 12 year olds their with a family members, to everyone in between. Happy to be in person again, catching up on the past two years! Soaking it all in.
I love introducing people to what i do & love. I really enjoy the look on their faces when they’ve completed that card or that page or that book!! But nothing compares with sharing with others of like minds & creativity. Always learning – always reaching! This is our little slice of heaven!
I was sitting at the make n take tonight & i realized the entire room was working on one card from the same, cloned kit, but what we produced individually was unique to us. They all looked similar, but each person put their own creative stamp on their work! That’s what makes it so cool! There are no two alike -just like snowflakes – just like us! We were all just as happy as the next – happy to be back in our happy place – happy to be living our best scrap happy lives!!!!
Smile – say cheese – yep , that one is going in the scrapbook!!!!
