CHA - Day 2 Report

Happy Monday, peeps! Are you ready for my CHA - day 2 report? Gonna be a long one!! I'll split it & save some story for tomorrow's post as well. :)  My day start at 1.05am. Yep, as in 1 in the morning!! My MIL, her sister, and me shared the room. Well, they both snore = me... no sleep. I kept tossing & turning, by 3am, I started to text hubby. Of course, he didn't get them till he woke up much later.

Thank goodness for iphone! I ended up browsing online, played game, and around 4 something I finally fell asleep. Then 5.20am, my MIL woke up. I woke up with her and she told me to go back to sleep, and I just pointed my finger to their bed, where her sister still blisfully asleep & snoring (love ya, Aunt Flo!!). She laughed & we decided to look for coffee downstairs, while her sister stayed in. It was nice though, I get to catch up with  my MIL.

When the show started. I shopped around, chatted with the Paper Crafts peeps again and they all signed my Gallery Idol card, except for Cath (Moxie Fab) as she wasn't around and later, I kept on missing her. At one point, Susan told me Cath was in while I was waiting at a make & take. The Paper Crafts gals are the best! They're so warm, funny, and just plain fun to talk to. Loved them!!

Anyway, I was going to see Cath after my make & take, except when I stood up, I feel like I am going to pass out. I think that's what 3 hours of sleep & empty stomach do to your body. LOL. Needless to say, I missed Cath, as I rushed back to the hotel to get some food in me. :)

After some rest, I got my second wind. Went back for more shopping. Heh... Loved shopping. Highlight of day 2??? See this pic??

Debbie, Mish, Heather, me, Nichole, Jennifer, & Dawn.

Me lovey Papertrey Ink!!!

Yep, me and all the Papertrey Ink gals! I wanted to jump up and down! It started with me saying hi to Jennifer Ellefson. We went way back. We were on the DT together for Simply Sentiments magazine in 2003-2004. We started to chat and then she said let me introduce you to the whole group. Eeekkkk....

And when I asked if we could take picture, Jennifer lined everybody up! Thank you Jennifer! I get to chatted with Dawn for awhile. Loved Dawn! She's sooo pretty and so sweet. And then, Nichole offered some stamp cleaners. She told me to get as many as I want, but since I only bring carry on and doesn't want to get stop by homeland security, I told her I just have 1. :) This company has the best peeps!

With Jennifer (Papertrey Ink)

Oh yes, they all signed my Papertrey notepad as well. And they gave the sweetest message & encouragement. Simply love them!! The kind of company t hat I would love to work for. I'll post about the make & take & all the goodies on tomorrow post.

I do have a couple cards to share with you, using my new DeNami stamp. Loved Paulina & Nami, amazing mother daughter duo. I love turtle. Kind of collecting things that turtle realted actually. So, as soon as I saw this stamp, there's no thinking required, I have to have it!! I used their sketch from their last challenge and since this is cute as can be, I have to enter this for Moxie Fab Fun & Cute challenge as well and the CAS-tastic Bling It Up challenge.
