I just got back to the hotel room a bit ago… finally got some food, and now I want to just sit and rest. Went to meet up with some gal pals after the show today, then off to Windy City for the Luxe class. Good thing I drove and not my mom… we had to parallel park. Lol, she is always amazed at my parallel parking skills.

Class was great, Emily and Jen did a great job, and I learned a new book binding technique. We got to play with lots of Luxe products including papers, stamps, rubons and more. They were also able to incorporate some Ranger products, which I love. Paint dabbers and Stickles… who doesn’t love them?? If you don’t, well then, you aren’t using them right! Later this week I’ll be posting some of the great ways to use your Ranger products so keep an eye out.

I ran into Cass, (Paper Tales), today on the show floor - again. She was however sitting down on the job today. There she sat, on the floor of the K&Co. booth pointing at this and that and calling out the quantity she wanted. The poor thing, I feel for her, I know that these shows sound like so much fun, but there is a lot to see and some serious planning when you are actually doing store orders. It may be hard to believe, but I’ve been there done that, and I can say it’s a lot of work. It takes a toll on the body AND the mind!!

Cass did want me to tell you all that since she has been gone, Michael has been at the store picking and choosing things to make down, lol. So stop by Paper Tales and check out whats on sale and go keep Michael company!!

I’m going to post my photos tomorrow. We did remember the camera today!! I’m just too darn tired to do the uploading. I’m not real sure when we are leaving tomorrow morning and I’m fairly certain I’m going to be the one driving so I need to rest up!
