Scrapbook Expo Recap

As you know, I was able to get away for the weekend with some of my girlfriends...
Wearing a crown has been a 4 year tradition of ours.  
Why? Because princesses gave no responsibilities, no chores or jobs to do, someone else cares for their children, and they can
spend money on whatever they want. 
We had a blast!  We didn't get a lot of sleep or do a lot of scrapbooking, but we did do a lot of laughing, shopping, and this...
It was so fun to see the latest trends in scrapbooking, fashion,
accessorizing, and goodies.
I am so excited to share with you my great finds!!!

Jane and Me Jewelry is so fun!!!  It is fresh, new, and elegant.  I LOVE IT.  I got myself a few items and my Mom's Mother's Day gift too.  Mom if you are reading, please close your eyes NOW!
I think she will love it! 
Check this beauty out!!!  So fun.  Well, it can be yours!  Just leave a comment saying what your favorite item is from this post.  I'll pick a winner this Friday, April 1st. *Remember, you must be a follower to participate. 
We can be BFF's with matching necklaces!

I love stamps and these are so CUTE!  They had other cute stuff, too.  Like chalkboards (which I bought), magnets, and cute cake stands (which I got, too).
Oh the possibilities with these babies.  They are so cute!

These are my favorite albums.  I got 3 for $15.  What a dang good steal!
I love their sheet protectors, too.

Kiwi Lane produces designer templates that help save you time, money, and facilitate your creativity.  Just place the templates on your paper, move them around and watch as unique and professional designs spring to life before your eyes!  All of the designer templates work together, which equals endless possibilities.  Brilliant Idea.  I wish I had them all!!!

Tired of cords everywhere?  I am!  Apple Core cord organizers are a great solution to that and they are so cute.  They come in small, medium, and large .  They also come in several different colors.  I will be doing a review in April, so I'll let you know what I think.  So far I LOVE THEM!!!

I had the large Apple Core on the counter and little M was rolling it around.  It fell to the floor.  She climbed down and wrapped her little hand around it, grunted, and pretended that she was lifting weights.  It was so stinkin' cute.  So, they can also be used as baby weights!!!

These girls are from the Logan, UT area.  I've got to make it up there.  They are a clothing, scrapbooking, fabric, and accessorizing boutique.  Such a cute booth.  I love my new fabric!

How do you clean your glasses?  I clean my sunglasses with the bottom of my shirt.  Well, not any more now that I have a Spudz Cleaner.  It is the perfect size and it has a clip so it can be attached to your camera, carried in your purse,  or practically anywhere.   
This one can be yours.  Just leave a comment saying what your favorite item is from this post.  I'll pick a winner this Friday, April 1st.

Nothing Bundt Cakes was offering FREE SAMPLES both days.  I think I walked past 6 times!!!  Please don't tell them.  They are SOOOO delish!  I am not a huge chocolate fan (I like it, but don't love it), but I recommend the Chocolate Chocolate Chip.  It is amazing!  If you are in Sandy, UT (10389 S. State Street) you have to check them out.  You won't be disappointed.  I brought one home to share with my family and it was gone in 30 seconds! 
Please, Nothing Bundt Cakes, come up north!


According to Die Cuts With a View we will now be seeing
ball gowns made with paper instead of fabric. 
Amazing.

This was a fun weekend, but it is sure good to be back home.  I really missed my family.  When I got home, our house was clean and our girls where bathed
(my two favs - clean home and clean kids).
I truly have the best husband ever!!!

  4. Looks like you had a lot of fun. I liked the fabric booth the best, but the stamps booth looked good too. It would be fun to go to both of them sometime.

  5. The necklace is adorable. I am really liking fun different jewlery lately. The eye glass cleaner would be so helpful though, like you I am ALWAYS cleaning my glasses on my shirt. I am sure that is part of the reason they are so scratched.
    Glad you guys had a great time. Cute pics.

  7. My favorite thing in this post is for sure Kiwi Lane's templates! I was also at the expo this past weekend and I bought almost every template! It was really expensive because I bought so many, but well worth it because I am already having tons of fun with them!

  8. Hi - it's Debbie from the ADORNit booth. I'm so glad you loved our booth - it was fun to share our new fabric with girls who really appreciated it and got so excited. Remember to go to ADORNit's Facebook page and post a Fan photo of your finished fabric project. I can't wait to see what you make! Promise?!

  10. I was at the Expo last weekend, too. I was so glad to see the My Cute Stamps booth, that I bought a few sets of their super cute stamps.....but, I think that my favorite of your post is the pic of the t-shirt at the top. My good friend Tomi designed it!! =)

    Thanks for sharing this fun giveaway and the chance to win some fab goodies!!

  11. So many choices. I was unable to make it to the expo, so I rely on blogs like yours. I already LOVE Kiwi Lane (that's how I found you), but I really love those necklaces. I would really love to get one for my mom (and maybe one for me)
