way back at the beginning of July -- I got to meet Ali Edwards -- who is an amazing (and my favorite) scrapbooking designer.
When Nicole (friend from work) and I were talking about who our favorites were, I mentioned Ali and she said "Oh -- we're going to see her in July -- you should come!!!" I was floored. She even called the store they were going to for the class (up in Cleveland) and asked if there were any spots left in the classes. I was told that there was a waiting list, but that I would be third on the list -- and this was back in May, so I had a pretty good chance of still getting into the class!
So I put my name on the list, and Stephanne (my boss) did too -- Nicole even spoke to her friend that lives up there (who was going to host this gang of women from all over to sleepover the night before the class). Normally they all go up the day before, go out for dinner together, then go back to the house and crop all night. Nicole invited us along for all of this.
We had an amazing time -- my next post will have some pics from the day.
Ali was awesome -- I'm not doing this entry justice because I have a headache and just want to get it online right now -- it's been too long.
more later!
