More Pictures from the Spellbinders Design Team Retreat (Day 2) and a Project Share

Hello everyone!  Today, I have a few more pictures to share with you from the Spellbinders 2013 Design Team Retreat and I also have a card to share with you.  I made a few collages with the pictures from the retreat so the post wouldn't be so picture heavy.

We had so much fun on the second day of the retreat!  The morning was spent with the Fabulous Julianna Hudigns.  We received goodie bags from Beadalon filled with so many fantastic supplies from the Jewel Loom and jewelry tools to wire.  We also received a wonderful bead tray and it was filled with beautiful beads and charms from Blue Moon Beads a division of DCWV.  Julianna showed how to make jump rings and we all got to make a beautiful bracelet using the Jewel Loom.  Several of us on the Spellbinders DT's also design for Julianna so we thought it would be nice to have a group shot.  L-->R Heidi-Me ;-), Holly Simoni, Judy Hayes, Julianna Hudgins and Lesley Langdon. 

Here is another group shot of the Blog Team.  In the afternoon we all got to go on a little outing.  We had so much fun going to visit Fun Stampers Journey!  While we were there we got to pick out some stamp sets too.  They have so many fantastic stamp sets it was hard to choose!  ;-)  A Huge Thank You to Richard and Gabby Garay and beautiful ladies at the store!!!

Ok now for the Crazy pictures LOL!!

To finish off Day 2 we had a Nerd Night party!!  Check out some of those outfits!!  We had a blast and it was great seeing everyone all dressed up.  

Now for my card.

This is a card I made for my grandpa for his birthday.  I used the E3D-002 Creative Cogs 3D M-Bossabilities™ Folder and some copper foil from the Premium Craft Foils from Spellbinders®.  I lightly sanded the foil to reveal the silver under the copper paint.  I also just SW-04520 All Boy stamp set from JustRite Papercraft.  All of the supplies are listed below.

  

Thank you so much for stopping by today!  I hope you enjoy seeing all of the pictures from the retreat and the birthday card.  Have a wonderful weekend!!

Hugs & Smiles,

Heidi

Spellbinders Design Team Retreat - A Few Pictures from Day 1

Hello everyone!  I wanted to post these pictures from the Spellbinders® Design Team Retreat sooner but I have been trying to fight off some kind of stomach bug ever since I can home so I haven't felt the greatest.  These are a few pictures from Day 1 and I will post more pictures over the next couple of days.

We had such an Amazing time at the retreat!!!  It was so great to have all of the DT's together---imagine all that talent in one room---Fabulous!!!!

Here is a picture of the first morning right before things were ready to start.  I am sure you see lots of familiar faces.  ;-)

Now I know you all know who this beautiful and talented lady is--Becca Feeken!!  She is the sweetest lady!!

Here is another fun one with Sherry Cheever---aka BAD Sherry and Becca!!  Sherry is such a hoot!!  We were roomies for the retreat.

Check out the Spellbinders Blog Team!!  OMGosh I love this picture!!!  Allison Tyler Jones was the photographer and she is Amazing and so much fun!!!  We did the regular photo and then this was the fun one--it was all about Seth!!  L-->R Kim Hupke--Education Manager, Sherry Cheever, Stacey Caron--President and co-creator of the Wizard Die Cutting & Embossing System and Spellbinders Die Templates, Becca Feeken, Debbie Olson, Seth Apter and Heidi Blankenship--me ;-)

We had a so much fun during the day with different classes/meetings and just being together.  Later that night Stacey took us to an iPic theater and we got to watch R.I.P.D.  The theater was so cool!!  The seats were big and comfy reclining chairs with pillows and blankets.  We had candy and popcorn and we ate our meal while we watched the movie. 

I will be posting more pictures over the next few days so be sure to stop back and check them out--you won't want to miss the pictures from our Nerd Night LOL!!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
