Novi

I had the pleasure of attending the Great Lakes Mega Meet in Michigan this weekend with three super fun ladies. The following are a few of photos I took. I came back very inspired and ready to create...
I got my hands on a few scrapbook lines and embellishments I've been coveting. I also saw a TON of ideas for classes at the Bertram Inn...
The Melissa Frances booth was one of my favorites. Their banners were AMAZING. And their ledger paper was on sale!!

Tim Holtz was there and his booth area was swamped...

Lots of cute and compact projects. Also lots of fun and bright colors.

I am completely hooked on Cosmo Cricket these past 4 months. Can't get enough!! Tina is quite the enabler...

After the convention, we headed to Scrappy Chic. Laina told me it was her most favorite store ever...so of course we had to stop. We stayed there forever...I didn't want to leave. That store is AWESOME. If you ever get the chance, do yourself a favor and take a road trip there!!
Despite a stormy ride home, we made it back without incident. A much needed girls day out is always good for the soul. Lots of laughter and a dinner without cutting up someone else's food, combined with outlandish stories and fun car games made the day fly by...

And today...I can't wait to create...
