Spraguefest 2011

This time last year I had just arrived home from a fabulous week in Chicago - enjoying the CHA Supershow and SPRAGUEFEST 2010. What an awesome time.

The CHA Supershow (Craft and Hobby Association) was an awesome experience. So many wonderful crafts to try (and buy - heehee) I got to finally meet and spend time with online friends that I have known for a few years. Shown here is my friend Kelly (from Simply Kelly Designs) and our good friend Aprile. While we had never met 'in real life' before this event, we had a great time - it was like we had known each other for years!

Spraguefest 2010 was simply awesome. The crew at jessicasprague.com planned an incredible time for us in the windy city. Digital classes, a walking tour through Chicago and wonderful dining experiences. Here is a picture me of with Jessica Sprague. i was thrilled to finally meet her (after taking so many awesome digital classes from her online) She is down to earth and a fabulous gal.

That was one year ago - flash forward to today - I am 50 pounds lighter and my wallet is lighter too! I have booked my airfare and registered for SPRAGUEFEST 2011 - this year it is being held in LasVegas in October. My bags are packed...I'm ready to go....(okay, not literally - but I am soooo excited)

Hope to see you in Vegas. Here are the details for Spraguefest 2011.

Habe a great day....by the Shore
