Gosh, this week has been crazy! Good crazy that is! ;) Catching up after being gone in Atlanta is keeping me and my peeps very busy! I have been able to download some more photos from the Scrap Etc. event last weekend to share with you.
This is Lucy. The queen bee at Scrap Etc. She put on the event with her wonderful team. She's one of the sweetest people I've met in this industry, and I am *forever* thankful for the opportunity she gave us last weekend.
And then there is Gail and I enjoying some creative workshops. Gosh, such serious faces! As an onlooker you cannot tell how much fun we are having. I guess we were diligently trying to get our projects finished in time.
One of the coolest things from the weekend was the Scrap Etc. silent auction held during the nightly crops. The silent auction turned out to be an extra loud bidding war for Margie's (my self-proclaimed new best friend!) hand made apron.
All the money from the auction was donated to Breast Cancer Research. It was so super humbling to see such a wonderful group of women give and give and give... Scrap Etc. raised nearly $4,000 during the event. Wow! It was awesome! The energy was so contagious that Bella decided to auction off a custom made 8x8" mini album to the highest bidder.
"Sold, for $150 to the lady in the back!"
Thank you Lotti Bosko! We can't wait to create your daughter's first birthday mini album!
It was great and I hope we will be invited to return for next years event!
Next week brings much more business! I am insane inspired and working on the newest product collections for Bella! I can't wait to show them to you!
Have a fabulous Mother's Day weekend! Ciao ciao for now...
Stephanie!!
