It took me about three quarters of an hour to get there, but it was soooooooooooo worth it. Jacqui's shop is simply stunning. It has a gorgeous, sumptuous boutique feel - complete with comfy sofa to sit and have a chat, or read a craft mag. The shop is beautifully laid out, very spacious and airy. Poor Jacqui was physically shaking with all the nerves and excitement. She was handing out pink champagne and the most gorgeous cupcakes - and yes I had a tiny dribble of champagne as I was driving, but seeing as I already look like I ate all the pies, I left the cupcakes for Judy who was going to be going later on lol
I also met up with Kath, so we had great fun filling up our posh pink baskets then went and had a coffee at one of the coffee shops on the main street. We were getting very strange looks from the staff as we were laughing so much. It was fab to see Kath - one of our local crafty celebs again - definitely have to do it again soon.
So here are all the fab goodies I got...
DCWV Scalloped card stack, Flora Doodles photobox of flowers, Bear Hug and Flower Girl Gorjuss Girls stamps from Sugar Nellie
Hero Arts 4 Dolls clear stamps, Hero Arts adhesive pearls, Colorbox ink queue, Stamping Bella Tatiana KETTO stamp
And look at these fabby patterned kraft papers and alphabet from Jillibean Soup, and the flower paper is 3 bugs in a rug
Today I've been out in the garden, colouring some images for forthcoming Passion for Promarkers challenges. The kids have had a ball playing outside in the sun. Its been scorchio and I now have stupid white strap marks and a white wristband where my watch was lol
