Do you have time to check out some of their websites and see if there are any new products they will be featuring or any promos they will have? I'm green with envy!

Stamp Zia! Zana does amazing work and uses lots of color! Very artistic and not my usual style of stamping but so, so beautiful. Zana taught a class last April at the retreat that I help to plan each year. She is a very nice woman.

If you do get a chance to see her, tell her Melissa from The Cat's Meow in Oakhurst says "hi"!

Savvy Stamps--great little images. Very similar in style to Memory Box and Paper Salon.

SAR (some assembly required) Amazingly intricate images. Some of the stamp sets are pricey and require lots of work, but the outcome is amazing.

Sparkle and Sprinkle-If I remember right from CHA last year, this company has a bazillion colors of embossing powder and fine glitters.

Moon Glow/Lindy's Stamp Gang.-We have looked at the Moon Glow sprays the last couple of years at CHA and they are beautiful mists/sprays of shimmer is several colors.

Well, a little more than .02 worth, but I hope it helps. Happy shopping!

Go to Sparkle and Sprinkle....I am thinking that is the one I bought these little squares that are sticky for pouring mini beads and glitter on. I cannot separate the protective covers from the squares....can you find out if there is some trick to this? LOL
(Now, I could be wrong about the name, and I don't want you asking questions that have nothing to do with their products, so look it over first so you don't feel silly!) Unless, of course, you WANT to feel silly. I mean, after all, it is a girls' trip out, and you'll be having a fun day, and all.

LOL
Now I'm silly!
Have a great day!

OH, and Stampland.....We all bought their masking tapes and some beautiful stamps.
I, for one, cannot remember how she started her projects.....It's great to go and buy the stuff, but you have to play right away when you get back home so you remember.
LOL

Have a great time! I saw some pins that stamp zia did and they were beautiful. It really isn't my style but her technique is amazing...I think she used shrink plastic.

Wow, I've never heard of a lot of these companies! I love Lindy's Stamp Gang demonstrations at shows! Lindy herself is usually doing the demo, and I love how she embosses charms and all kinds of stuff. Her Moonglow sprays are really cool too! Be sure to check out her unmounted rubber too, there are some really cute animal images and sayings.

Robin-

If you go by the Tessler Stencil booth you will have to see if Awna is running it. Awna is a fellow Shackie (allinkedup) ... her work is amazing and she is regularly published in magazines. She has been helping out the owner and running her booth.

Sparkle and Spinkle does have great stuff and I love SAR (although pricey)

Most importantly HAVE FUN!!!

I forgot my camera but RobinKay and 3darlings had theirs. I bought a ton of stamps. There was a booth there that had unmounted stamps that for however many you could fit in the baggie they gave you it was $5.00!! I counted mine when I got home and I had 15 in there!! What a deal!! I bought a couple of cute weenie dog stamps too. Also found an adorable stamp line call buggawumps. Holy heck they are sooooooo cute!! Robin will have to give you the web-site. I don't remember it!

Remember when you asked on an earlier thread about which booths to stop at, and I said to stop by the bugawumps booth because I thought it was a funny name? Now I can't wait to see their website!!! Sounds like a fun time you had today and some great deals!!
