Kraftin' Kimmie - It's my Birthday! and pics of CHA

Hey everyone! Happy Saturday! I do love the weekends! It's time for a new challenge over at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge Blog. Our hostess with the mostest is the Kween of Kraftin' Kimmie herself!  Since yesterday was her birthday, she chose Birthday to be the theme for the new challenge! Yay! So here's what I came up with for this one.


I chose to use this adorable cutie pie Lulu in a bathtub from the set of three Lovely Lulu's.  It comes with three adorable images and awesome sentiments.  It's stamped with Memento ink onto X-Press It cardstock and colored with Copic markers. It's then cut out with Nesties.  The papers are from Nitwit Collections matted with Bazzill cardstock.


There's lots of machine stitching on this one. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts enhanced with some rose leaves and branches from Martha Stewart punches. The ribbon is May Arts silk. The sentiment was my own that is computer generated and matted with more Bazzill cardstock.


Please be sure to pop over to the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge Blog to check out all the amazing creations by my teammies, and then we'd love it if you'd play along! And don't forget about the amazing sale that Kimmie has going over at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps! there are over 100 stamps on sale for either 41% off or $4.10 each!

Ok, I've got to say I had the most amazing time EVER at CHA!!!! It was a pure delight that I will always remember! To get to meet so many of my unbelievably talented design team sisters, as well as friends that I've had on line for years...well how often does an opportunity like that pop up? So grab a cup of coffee and enjoy!!


I am still pinching myself that I got to meet Lols!!!  She is my DT sis from Papertake Weekly, and was working with Simon Says Stamp. They're lucky to have her!


A pic of Lols, myself, and the amazing Ms Patti Jo! Patti Jo colored almost every one of those tags you see hanging in the booth. What talent!!!!  She was also so gracious to host a class on flower making for all of us! It was awesome and the cards are gorgeous!


And here I am with the oh so sweet and talented Cabio! What a treasure she is!!! I got to spend the entire afternoon coloring next to this wonderful bundle of talent!


Look at these two gorgeous ladies!!! Queen Diana is on the left, and the uber talented Suzan on the right! I was just giddy with delight!!!!


The amazing Jacque, myself, and again, the awesome Suzan. I have been waiting to meet Jacque for what seems like forever! She has been through quite the journey, and my hat goes off to her. She has been so supportive of me, and I was thrilled to finally get to meet this little firecracker that is such a generous and giving soul!


Look at those two stunning girls on the left! How can you be so gorgeous and so damn talented all at once? LMBO!  From left to right, there's Mindy (talk about talent - this girl has got it!!,  Angie - Ditto!! She has her own line of the most adorable images... Little Darlings - Check them out!! (I seriously don't know how she does it all!!) ,  Then there's me, and then the Queen that made every second of this possible, Queen Diana, owner of Magnolia-licious and inventor of Scor-Pal.  There's been a LOT of people that have tried to copy her invention (including Martha Stewart), but nobody can make one as good as the Scor-Pal! This woman has the biggest heart of anyone I know! She's unbelievable!! A true bundle of talent that is all wrapped up in a huge heart with a big pink bow!!


Well this little chicklette needs no introduction! LMBO!  I think everyone knows Suzanne! What a truly amazing woman! A wonderful Mom who truly cares and is always there with advice and assistance when needed. What else can I say?

Hope you enjoyed the pics! I had a truly glorious time and am still basking in the afterglow of meeting so many wonderful friends that I have been chatting with for years! I am one lucky, lucky woman.  Thanks so much for stopping by to see me today, and hope to see you back again soon! Hugs!
