I had the best time last night scrapping (okay so I didn't really scrap THAT much!!) but I did talk, laugh, eat, and laugh ALOT! Over a year ago my good friend Becky Cates asked me if I would be interested in co-hosting a crop at her house....I said "YES!!!, would love to!" Well, it took us a while to get the timing right, but last night we hosted over 25 incredible women at her house! I have not laughed that much in one evening in a long time! It was AWESOME!!! We had a patriotic theme from our invitations to the decorations to the little project that we asked each scrapper to participate in. I made up little card bags with different "goodies" in them...and I use the word "goodies" loosely! They were not the best of products...they were very old and from my "never touch that stuff anymore stash". We asked each scrapper to create a card for someone in our Armed Forces so that we could collect them at the end of the night and send them out. Everyone was AMAZED at the cards created....they were fantastic!!!!! I am going to scan them and put them on my blog in another post.
So a huge thank you to everyone who was able to make it to our little event and an even bigger thank you to Becky for asking me to be a part of this!!!! What a great night!!!!!
Here are just a few of the pictures from the evening!!!
