  This is Lori, Myself and Marianne

 Marianne did a fantastic job instructing us as well as being very entertaining

I don’t know if you can see in this photo but Marianne even coloured her wedding ring green (it comes off with hand sanitiser or a baby wipe).  Marianne has a tendency to Copic colour everything, even her hair!

So this means I can now teach others how to use Copic Markers!  Copic Ciao Markers are now in stock, I’ve started with 72 colours with more being added soon.

 Heidi and me

   Wendy and me

Heidi’s class was amazing and I have always loved Glimmer Mist but now I love it even more now that I have learned yet more techniques to use with it.  Heidi is a wonderful public speaker and during her inspirational talk at SIA she managed to send me to tears more than a handful of times.

SIA is never long enough for me, there are so many classes to do and lots of manufacturers stands to visit (with only two days to try to fit everything in) and I have to admit they are the most full on days of my year (and that’s saying a lot with my four children) but in saying that I love it because I get to actually create and not have to think too hard about it.  I actually thought that I had taken a lot more photos than I did (the manufacturers do a fantastic job on the displays on their designated spaces) and unfortunately it’s only now that I am back home again that I discovered that I did more looking than photo taking.

Here are some pictures of the Collections Elements booth – Julie and her team do a fantastic job decorating their stand year after year.

I also have to thank my wonderful husband who was brave (or silly) enough to stay at home and take great care of the children.

All in all a fantastic trip and I managed to scrapbook as well!
