Question Anyone going to the Stamp Convention in Duluth?

Checking to see if any SCS members are going to the Heirloom Rubberstamp and Paper Festival at the Duluth, GA Convention Center next Saturday. I'm going with a few friends and wanted to know if anyone has gone in previous years and did they enjoy it.

OMG, take plenty of $$$ if it's anything like the ones I've gone to. Everyone has such great stuff, but take good notes b/c when you get home it's not always as easy as when the demo did it. Also take a camera. Some will let you take pics and that helps my memory. Be sure to ask permission, somedon't like you taking pics unless you bought something.

I am planning on going, but we are in the middle of some house renovations and not positive I can sneak out for a day. It is a good show but not as many vendors as a couple years ago. It used to be in the spring and they moved it to the fall and lost some vendors. Marco's paper will be there and they are a wonderful source for paper. People walk out with bags full of their stuff. Endless Creations and Morningstar Stamps have great stamps and I go just to get their stuff. Lots of others that I can't think of right now.
Do bring a camera, good walking shoes, and snacks. They do have a place to get things to eat and drink but it is pricey - rather spend my money on stamps. I take a backpack with a wallet and camera in it. I try to leave everything else at home, carrying around all that stuff gets heavy by the end of the day.
Send me a PM if you need more info.

I will be there. This will be my second year and I love it.
Like others said. Bring a camera and notepad to jot down some notes.
I kind of feel bad about going since I still haven't used most of the stuff I bought last year
I didn't see anybody trading last year so I wasn't planning on bringing anything.

With all the ladies that are going...would any of you like to meet up with each other? I'm always excited to meet SCS members.

Is there a lot for scrapbookers there? I talked my friend into going with me and she is not a stamper...really only into scrapping.

I'm not sure since this is my first time going but I would think she could use the paper and emblishments with her scrapbooking.
