Spring Fest 2012

I had an awesome time this weekend with 80+ stampin’ friends at the Spring Fest event in Buffalo, NY!  It is always so much fun to meet up with these ladies… some of them I only get to see this one time out of the year.  After months of planning, the weekend always flies by too quickly!  The only thing I’ve unpacked so far is my camera, so here’s a few photos of the day…

Lynn, Tracy (our leader), and Cheryl… ♥ these ladies!

Some attendees waiting to get started…this is about half of the tables.

Arlene and others hard at work…

Here’s just a few of the projects these talented ladies brought to share!

Fab table favors made by Beth (who seems to have escaped all my photos).  Perfect for our Wizard of Oz / Over the Rainbow theme!

A few of the wonderful doorprizes that were so generously donated!

A lucky recipient of some Crafters Companion goodies…

Tracy put together a candy bar with several of “Dorothy’s” baskets…

Time for a break!  Greg and the kitchen crew spoiled us with a great lunch!

Some ladies brought a dish to share and Laura Albertson made these CUTE-AS-CAN-BE olive penguins!  They were really yummy too!

Having fun, Lisa?

Our “LUCKY” winner, Pam, and Lou Ann…

MaryAnn looks like she’s having fun.  And could that be the elusive Beth in the kitchen?  I think so! 

Sherry Czarnecki was very “a·muse-ing”  ;0)

What a fun day!!!  After all of the clean-up, everyone shopped at the best stamp store ever…Buffalo Stamps & Stuff.  Then we went out for a yummy, relaxing dinner.  Here’s our annual shot before we say goodbye…a few left and missed the photo.  🙁   Cheryl, Lisa, me, Michele, Tracy, Jeannette. 

I’ll be back with photos of my projects soon.  Have a great week!
