A day of stamping with friends :)

A bit of history.........I LOVE stamping get-togethers.....when we moved a few years ago I didn't really know any stampers in my new area so I stopped hosting the fun get-togethers I had been hosting for years and I can tell you, that made me very sad. If you know me, you know I am a people person. I LOVE being around other ladies who enjoy the same things I enjoy. As time has passed, I have met more and more local stampers, one of them being Denise Marzec. We hit it off right from the start :). She is a sweet, sweet lady and I just love her :)!! Well, we put our heads together and decided we wanted to have a stamping get-together. Our first meager event was held at my church this past fall and included 8 fine ladies. Our second event was this past weekend at L&L Rubber Stamps in Ephrata and guess what??? Our group doubled since the first get-together :). How exciting!!!! Our group is actually larger yet, but some of the ladies couldn't come this time and we sure missed them!

I look forward to watching this group continue to grow as we find more and more local stampers. And I will be planning events as my schedule allows so if you are one of these fine ladies.....watch those inboxes :)!!

Now how about some pics from Saturday's get-together :).....

Denise fondly named us the Purple Papercrafters when the four of us showed up in purple :)


I finally got to meet Jen Nevil....what a sweetie :)!!! I wish we could have chatted more, but we were at opposite sides of the room. Next time!! :)


Carol snapped this pic of me by myself....I rarely pose for pics like this, but how could I not for Carol. She is such a doll :).


And here is the whole group :)....



Yes, that is a WALL OF STAMPS behind us and if you "rent" to room, you can stamp those images to your heart's content :).




Denise had to leave a bit early and when she was done packing up she was just chillin' at the table so I snapped this adorable pic of her. This pic totally makes me smile :)! Love you, GF!


Ok, now I have to run. Monday morning and all that jazz!

Watch for more info soon about our next event. If you are in the Eastern PA area and want to be included in our emails, please let me know!!

Hugs and smiles,
Korin
