Hello LBH Friends & Family!!!
We are finally all together (that is all 6 of us) here in sunny, CA! Susan and I arrived early to attend the "Tim"ster's All Day Education Workshop which of course was ..."Oh SO InSpiRiNg!!!" We can't wait to share some of the wonderful techniques and Ah HaH moments that we experienced!!!
Here is a look at the convention center where we will be spending the majority of our stay here...
Surrounded by palm trees...it is quite a beautiful place to be!
While Susan and I were having all the ArTsY FuN with Tim....
our dear friends were fighting with flight cancellations, stuck behind CaTs going thru airport securtiy...(I'm not even kidding...actual CaTs...humungous, XXLG CaTs)...I'll let Rhonda tell you about that later :) and let's see what else...oh yay, screaming toddler on the plane, space hoggers, but from what I'm told there was an occasional trip to the bar and some extremely gorgeous Italian guys that kept Elaine distracted from all the downside to non-rev travel....LOL!!!
Here's a special note that we texted to them during the workshop...
We were certain it would make them feel all better....
Now back to the ArTsY Fun...Here's a picture of what we arrived to find at our space for the "Tim"ster Workshop...Best part about these goodies?????? We got to keep them ALL!!!!!! Thanks Tim and Ranger for being so generous!!!!
We had so much fun creating and experimenting with NEW techniques...some of which you will be so surprised by?!?!?! I wish you all could have been there...He is such a great educator!!!
Well, the gals are hollering at me to hurry up....we have to leave soon! Today is all about Vendor Presentations for those of us who are members of Crafter's Home! ...and a Private Vendor Fair tonight called Craft Mania...I promise to post more about it later...
In the meantime, here are a few more pic's from our Workshop...
Oh...and The Little Blue House won a bag filled with the entire line of Stickles for our Studio! Woo Hoo! Hopefully we will WIN lots more KEWL stuff today!
AND...I was given LOADS of SAMPLES yesterday of some of the NEW goodies and I want to share them with YOU!!! So I will be drawing names everyday from our CHA posts and give some lucky commenters these FaBuLouS goodies! So what are you waiting for....Follow our BLOG and POST a comment... I'm super excited about sharing some "HaPpY" "CRafTy" "FuN" with YOU!

ReplyDeleteI can't believe my married daughter would be attracted by handsome Italian men but married or not she is only human. It sounds like the Tim workshop was fabulous. Someday I would love to take one of his classes. You guys have a great time and maybe you better craft some blinders for Elaine.

ReplyDeleteI want to go with you next time!!! What fabulous goodies.
ReplyDeleteI have seen Tim from about 20 feet at the Arlington Scrapbook Convention last year when he came with Stamper's Anonymous but to have him teach you technique (besides via youtube videos) would be so awesome. Loving the markers and all the new stickles. Seeing all this is making me want to go home and make some valentine goodies
