Just got the email from CK

that they are coming to Opryland Hotel
for a Convention, Sept. 11-12. Looks like
these dates were recently added to their
schedule. Works for me.

I'm definitely planning on going. Deb H.
forwarded her email to the group, so
hopefully we can all get together for a
road trip.

Here's the link with convention info, etc:

Had to hunt for this one, but here's the link
with class listings:

Not exactly sure how Bill

and I ended up with identical cars,
but we thought it would be fun to
put His and Her plates on them.
I love my Granny plate!!!

And Lisa Bearnson's exodus from QVC:

I watched Lisa's final show yesterday afternoon, and she appeared emotional but handled it very well. One thing I noticed about yesterday's anniversary show was there were only 2 hours in the entire day dedicated to Scrapbooking. In year's past it was more like 8-10 hours of Scrapbooking throughout the day. The industry sure has changed. But one thing I'm sure of - scrapbooking will live on with or without the celebs.

Thanks for a great

scrappin weekend everyone! I managed to
get 22, 12x12 pages done. All they need are
the pics and to be put in albums! I haven't
scrapped that many layouts in months.

The food was great, the goodies awesome and
our stamp image swap was fantastic! Looking
forward to next year.

Again, thanks everyone for your generous
spirit and friendship!!!!
