Back home safe and sound after only an hour wait at the border. AND the border dude didn't even make us pay duty. Nice of him.
Tracy, thank you to all of your crew and to you for organizing yet another wonderful event. Ina and I were talking about it and it just gets better each year! I don't know how you manage to figure it out so that no two stampers are at the same table from morning to afternoon. You're far more organized than I'll ever be.
To those who brought food. Thank you so much, it was all delish! If the person who brought the jello fruit salad would like to share their recipe I would love a copy, please!
To my table mates - 7 in the am and 9 in the pm...thank you for all of the wonderful projects. I completely enjoyed making each and every one of them.
Thanks to all for the swaps and the inspiration!!!
A big THANKS to everyone for making my first Springfest so great.
Thank you Tracy and crew for all you did! Thanks to Alliance Church for letting us use their facilities. The food was fabulous. All the projects were great. I was a fun day and I'm so glad I went.
Also ~ a big thanks to all my tablemates at Tables #3 and #4. I loved your projects and the conversations.
Special thanks to Tracy, Beth, Lynn, Diane, Cheryl, Lisa, and all the kitchen crew. You far outdid yourselves. This is my favorite Splitcoast event and I'm so happy when we are back home so that I can attend. The shoebox projects were all great. I am in love with all of my recipe swaps. They are the best I've ever gotten and can't wait to make some of the recipes. You make it special for the papercrafters that we all are to meet each other and share our talents.
Tracy, thanks to you and your helpers for all the hard work putting on such a fun event. The vendors are so generous with their donations. Hope you decide to carry on next year!
Loved the projects & company at tables 3 and 7. Nice recipe cards and ATCs swaps too.
Mary Ann, great job chauffeuring us around. Lisa & Pam, next time we'll stay on the 1st floor to avoid the elevators!! What a fun weekend.

Thank you everyone who worked so hard to make this a successful event. Ann ( 5a day) and I were attending for the very 1st time and we had a great time.. Great people, great ideas shared. We will be back next year that is for sure. And thanks to the very special lady who had us follow her to the Buffalo Stamp store, what a sweetheart she was to make sure we got there ok.. And we will definitely be back there as well!!
Thank you so much for all the support for my daughter and her project. It really perked her up to see the big box of donations for the kids at epilepsy monitoring center.
Thanks, too, for all the wonderful stamping fun! Tracy and all the spring fest ladies, you rock!
Another thank you to all the ladies at table 2! Beautiful projects, great company!
I was so LUCKY to attend this wonderful event! Had a fabulous time.
Shoebox projects were the greatest!
Many thanks to Tracy and her wonderful crew, great job! Hope you will
consider doing it again next year, pretty please...
Good job and many thanks!
Finally got home around 8:00 tonight....had to relax(without being in the car) for awhile after I picked up DD
Thank you to all those involved with this event! Tracy and crew...you guys are the best!

I made it safely home around 1:20 pm after stopping for lunch not far from home. I was exhausted after the drive, so I took a nap and am now up and at 'em.
To Tracy and helpers: a big thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the hard work that went into making an awesome event.
As I told my travel buddies... if it ever comes to picking only ONE SCS event to attend, it would be Springfest with Tracy and her pals. I do so hope you will reconsider and continue.
It was a great weekend all around. It's hard to explain to non-stamping friends what these weekends are like. But, we ALL know how special they are. Thank you to all of my stamping friends from near and far that make it so much fun.
With all these thanks, don't forget to THANK the DONATORS! I think Cookie put the addresses on the items. A really nice card will go a LONG way to continuing the relationships with these companies. We do want to stand out as a GREAT group of gals, we know this already, but why not share!
I THANK YOU all of you, Tracy pass this onto the "guys", for loving this craft and being a part of the stamping community!
I want to add my thanks to all the above comments. Tracy and company, thank you from the bottom of my heart for a fabulous event. It was planned and organized so well. I had soooo much fun! Thanks for all the work in securing great door prizes and draw prizes and more. The food was fantastic....yum, yum! I had a great time at tables 1 and 5....thanks for all the great projects and cards.....I learned great new techniques! It was all a great success and I sincerely hope we will continue having this event.....don't want to twist your arm Tracy, but if you can't do it, maybe some other people will pick up the baton.
After attending this event four times, this was my first visit to Buffalo Stamps and Stuff and it was well worth the visit. Thanks so much to Sharon and her staff, and we will be back for a shopping spree sometime in the future for a day trip!
Tracy and all your helpers...Thank you for a wonderful day. I had a great time and loved all the projects at Table 7! Thanks again for all your hard work...
Where to begin!!!! I just about died after my first year of this (bit off more than I could chew), but had such a wonderful time with all the ladies and organizers that I regrouped and made it through another 4 wonderful years with all you gals. It is an event to look forward to and a huge disappointment to miss out on. The work you gals and guys do just boggles the boundaries of my limitations so my thanks are HUGE to you all for pulling this together each year. I loved having a night with the jammie stampers (so enjoyed those half dozen orange brownies I was able to scarf down Andrea, however I do not share your stamina and opted out of night #2 (Nancy those fabulously powerful magnets wiped out the stripe on my room key!! We had Brad's to rely on What a wonderful dinner with the gals at My Tomato Pie (the yummiest of food). And, to add more icing to an already heavily frosted cake--BSS (even if you don't need a thing, it is hard to resist all the wonderful goodies Sharon has in store!!) So if ever, oh ever a group there was, the Springfest stampers are one because, because, because, because, because, becauuuuuuse...because of the wonderful work they does!! Does anybody know a good speech therapist!!! It just rhymes, eh?!!

Thanks for mentioning this, Sherry! Almost all of the doorprizes have addresses on them. As Tracy mentioned, we have had feedback in the past that we are the only group that has sent a thank you. It DOES get noticed!
And many thanks to mitchy for making a few AWESOME cards for everyone to sign!
Hello! First of all.....Thank you so much for the great time at the Stamp Fest. I sure hope you will reconsider and continue the event.
Unfortunately I somehow packed someone elses small Fiskars paper cutter. I was at Table 3 in the AM and Table 1 in the PM. The initials on the back are CLR if there is anyway to be able to connect me to the person it belongs to. I'm sorry for the inconvenience too.
Thanks again!

I'm going to use the stamp set I got from Mark's Finest for my thank you card to them.
It was a great day!!! Thank you for all your kind words. It is really nice to know the team's efforts resulted in another successful and fun event.
As I walked around I saw lots of great projects. It was fun to have both newbies and oldies.
I am still recovering, so off to bed I go early

Sharon, thank you! You should have seen me trying to make it through security at the airport with that spellbinder machine. Think they thought it was a bomb. It was heavy too and the bag barely made it back to Raleigh. BUT ... I am going to really enjoy it and the other things I bought at your store.

Xpedx in Syracuse is still open! We received a notice that someone is buying/sale pending some of the Xpedx stores and Syracuse is one of them.
