Paper Art Festival

[RubberLady603]

I'm headed to the big Paper Art Festival in Springfield Mass. this weekend with my Mom. I love to pick up new techniques from the likes of Tim Holtz and Judi from Judikins. Don't they make it look so easy! Hmmm.
Anybody else out there with plans to attend?
My Mom says she will lock the credit cards in the trunk! LOL!! Notice I didn't say leave the cards at home? Can't pass up a good buy now can we? Thank goodness for understanding DH!

That really sounds like fun. I'm sorry it's so far away from me. Have a wonderful time.

...sounds great...i am afraid middle tennessee has become a stampers/scrappers wasteland...we used to have some shows/conventions come to the nashville area, but no more...have a good time, just make sure you don't lock the keys in the trunk...be terrible not to get at those credit cards...

Isn't it nice to be able to (legitimately) blame things on your mom. I blame mine for my thunder thighs!

I am hoping to go, I live an hour away from Springfield, but my daughter is getting married on the 14th so I am not sure how busy we are going to be next week-end.
I went last year and had a so much fun, and we won't mention how much $$$ I spent lol.

I Love it too. Sometimes you get some fab deals but mostly you get to see all the new stuff actually being used. I always go home with a ton of new ideas. I also love talking to people and meeting them again as I've met some of them on previous trips.

I'm headed there this weekend! I can't wait! My in-laws live very close by in MA so we'll stay with them. I'm hoping to come home with more new ideas and techniques than new goodies.... cuz I really don't *need* any more goodies... :-)

I'd be in HEAVEN. I'd love to encourage my lifelong paper obsession. Be sure and post your findings & fun so I can live vicariously through you. I LOVE paper!:cool:

Somewhere along the line the word need was replaced by want in my vocabulary. It seems my addiction to buying new things is only rivaled by my addiction to using them. Anyway, I hope I have some good stories for you after the weekend. It has become a tradition for my mom and I to attend every year and we always come back with something great, sometimes a product and sometimes an idea.
