JoyOfStamping

WOW!  What an experience!!!!  So much work… but so much fun!  The experience was amazing.  Just wanted to share some pix I took…. sure wish I took more. (Click on any of the images for a slightly larger view)

 This is a picture of our Make and Take Table.  Cami, Marianne Walker, and Debbie Olson rocked with showing very cool coloring techniques.

 Kimberly rocked it, too! :)  Isn’t she just the cutest?

How fun was it to see our stamps in the store.  Here are my co-owners with me. (Kimberly, Me and Cami)

It was great to see some of my favorite vendors.  Nicole from Imaginisce is just too cute.  And it was great having a table right next to Fancy Pants.  I was able to trash talk about sports with Jared.  Him and his adorable wife are the owners of Fancy Pants.

Everyone from Archiver’s was so helpful and so sweet.  Amy was one of my favorites.  She always went above and beyond to make sure that we had whatever we needed.  We *heart* Amy!

We got to meet a lot of cool customers.  There were a few that we ran into quite a bit.  Natalie was everywhere… even the bathroom.  She named herself the Bathroom Stalker.  Her and her mom were so cute!

But, the best part of the trip was hanging out with friends.  Having dinner with everyone and even meeting the sweetest waitress that made you smile every time you looked at her.  She was so great that we had to go back the next night to see her again! :)  Boom Boom and Blue cheese all around!

 I am already looking forward to next year!

It’s crazy to think that a year has already gone by since Taylor Released her first stamp sets?  I remember that fun day of getting together with her a few friends packing orders.  I think I got the most “extra credit” points that day…. yeah, I’m Taylor’s favorite…. jk! :)  I’m so proud of what she has accomplished.  What an amazing girl!

(my aplogizies for the bad picture…. of course there was no natural light when I finished my project.  LOL!  I’ll re-take and re-upload! Ü)

The Places You’ll Go is the 3rd stamp set in The Taylored Expressions Giving Tree Program designed to donate proceeds to a different charity each quarter. For each The Places You’ll Go stamp set sold during September, October, November, Taylored Expressions will donate $7.00 to the Books for Kids Foundation: http://www.booksforkidsfoundation.org/. Note: This set is the same deeply etched rubber you have come to love! However, in order to cut down on manufacturing costs and donate more to charity, The Places You’ll Go set will need to be trimmed when the customer receives it.

Happy Birthday Cuppie and Stamp a Sweet Impression! :)  To celebrate, check out some other girls with some other awesome samples:
