Well we're back from SIA and gotta say had a blast with Tracey and Evana. Most of you might know by now that Tracey won Designer of the Year for the individual cardmaking. It definately made the SIA experience more exciting and rewarding for myself.
I realised during our breakfast with Carol Wingert - USA designer and thanks to a question asked by Evana to Carol, that Tracey would definately have to be my Hero in scrapbooking, the person who inspires me the most and also puts up with my annoying questions ie. do you like this, is this okay, should I put that there, I can't do that! yep I can be a bit of a pain but hey she's still right there by my side after nearly 3 years of that nagging. I'm sure I'm not the only one you inspire, anyway thankyou Tracey I look forward to more great travel experiences with you and Evana she just makes me laugh! Takes in alot of detail in a matter of seconds that one!
Anyway back to our breakfast with Carol Wingert, whom is such a beautiful person. Tracey and I did her class on Tuesday and Wednesday we all had breakfast with her we're she dicussed how her path in life came to stop at scrapbooking, or as Carol likes to call us all "Memory Artists" (I really loved this quote). Her journey to get to where she is today was great to listen to. She tried so much before finally her friend, after many attempts and many gifts (being scrapbooking ones), finally was able to get Carol to sit down and create. Carols work is definately one to check out.
Will tell you more soon. I have lots of photos to sort out and also wait for some from Evana and Tracey before I put any up but I do ask that you visit Tracey's blog and check out her photo of the 3 of us and answer her question. Once you find out what really happened you'll be LOL!! Although we weren't at the time!!
Have a great weekend.
