stargirls...

so the thing we did yesterday was so fun. it was centered around a book called stargirl by jerry spinelli, which is apparently one of lisa bearnson's favorite books. we each received the book prior to the adventure and had to read it before we come. it was a cute story with a lot of great lessons in life. the bulk of the day was spent going to 4 different places, seeing how things work and doing a little (or a lot, depending on who you were!!) of shopping. we got to tour ck media (i know, we did this last week!), go visit scenic route paper company, making memories, and rusty pickle. each place was fun to see and of course, fun to shop at.

ck media:
we toured the offices, met the big wigs, did a cute 6x6 page make and take, got to shop, shop, shop!!!

scenic route:
toured the warehouse, met sarah milne, the creater and owner, did a cute card make and take, and shopped.

making memories:
shopped some more. got to have a demo of the slice (i still want one!) while we did a make and take card. we got a cute slice apron from them!

rusty pickle:
toured the warehouse, did a 6x6 page make and take, met lance anderson, and had treats from a chocolate fountain (yep, he knows how to make friends!). we also got a huge bag of goodies filled with rusty pickle paper and embellishments.

after all the tours, we had a quick break for dinner, then headed to a keynote and crop with lisa, themed ala stargirl. it was a great time and we met a few "stargirls" and "starboys" in lisa's life. after the keynote address, we made 3 cards and had a great time. we met a bunch of fun people and got to know a few new friends.

Wow, now I am totally jealous. I want to go on a trip like that, too!
Many many thanks for the wonderful notepad-book and the great card you sent. I got it all yesterday. Much to my suprise... I'll publish a picture of it on my blog. And to explain it all, I'll also show the card I made. Plus a picture of the supplies you sent. But I must admit, I forgot to take a 'before' photo, so I hope you don't mind, if I borrow your shot, with proper credits of course!
Thanks again,
Ramona in Germany
