I've got a peek for you at the our Happy Place and another Oh, Whale card sample.  Today we had our Group Shoe Box swap.  It's a great event where my downline gets together for what I like to call a PotLuck stamp camp.  Each member brings a card/project and we all stamp one of each of the samples brought. I serve lunch (today was Chicken Cesear Salad, Fruit and French bread and Janice brought Lemon Bars and Barb brought a Banana Pudding Dessert.  mmm, Did I mention that we eat well too?

We had 14 projects to work on today and I will have to say each one was just as cute as the next!  It's a great way for my downline to bond and get some fabulous card samples to share with you all.  We do this style of event at least 4x/year.  We have a very active group and yes, we would LOVE for you to share in the fun with us.  Become a demonstrator and a  whole new world is open to you!

But first before the Shoe Box Swap, I needed to tidy up my office.  I had too many irons in the fire this week and my stamp studio was looking a little worse for wear last night.  Check out my facebook page to see the disaster that I needed to clean up!  And as proof that miracles do happen, here's what it looked like this morning when the girl's arrived.  Amazing…Ok, my DH was actually emptying the garbage for me because I had snuck out the back door to get dressed when they were pulling in and I was cutting it a little too close.  So I want you to get a good look at the bare tables because they aren't like this very often!
