was sure busy. It was the busiest I have seen in a few years. The vendors were happy as it was packed. Bad tho for shopping but I did get a few things.
I found copics sketch for 5.00 including the 12 new colors. I bought a variety of 10 and some more refills. I bought a cute stamp with a kitty and santa hat, giraffe from the Artful Stamp Company. Endless Creations were there (one of my favs) got cute little raccoon and squirrel and some others. Embossing folders- so many companies now it is hard to choose.
Paper from the Paper Cut. Can't remember what else. Oh there was this new company there that had stamps, papers, nesties, copics, etc.. called the ScrapMart- Terrific buys.
Heirloom girls save your money for Mass-go there first. The buys were unbelieveable.
IO was there but the line to get in was very long. I finally got to look but didn't buy anything. That will be online.
All in all good haul, good buys, good time!!

Sounds like you made out really well. I have purchased from scrap-mart before. If you go into their website, they have the same thing as cut at home with a 40% coupon each month.

Sweet! I'll have to see if Scrap Mart is at the show in MI. Aren't conventions great? Glad you had fun.

Good to know Shelley-thanks! They had the most terrific buys and their stuff was packaged neat and clean not like the usual clearance. The other plus is that is current products too.

I wonder if they will be in W. Springfield.
I wonder if Paula can come to MA in June.
What do you think?
LOL

Glad you had a great shopping / viewing trip. I love those conventions but not the crowds to get near the "stuff".

OOOOOO I CAN'T WAIT TILL JUNE!!!! When should we make our reservations? Last year we were very lucky we HAD reservations --- we wouldn't have gotten to stay there without them!!! I'm going now to look up Scrap Mart!!!

Dave from Heirloom said they have dropped some shows that have not been producing. For instances they moved the one from Greenville SC to Anderson-they dropped it this year. It is always in Sept and I wasn't able to go because of our free dental clinic (Mission Of Mercy) but I liked to go in the fall.
So this year maybe I will go in July to Scrapbook Expo in Ga-it is just as close as the other.
I was glad to see they were busy this time because for a few years (since the economy) it has been slow.

I was at the Heirloom show too. Sorry I missed seeing you, Paula. I found the crowds in some of the booths unbearable so I left early. But I did finally give in and buy one of those background stamp holders (don't know what they're called.. Mega something) and some of their backgrounds. I love them! Also bought some stuff from IO and Outlines. Overall lots of fun.

Glad you had fun in spite of the crowds. I am getting anxious for MA already too, Patty! Didn't someone mention staying at a different hotel this year???

Karen I wondered if you were there! It was very crowded and so like you I didn't stay a long time. Got a few things and got out of there. So you got the MegaMounts- I have 3 or 4 of those background stamps too. I like that mega mount with the handle.
Did you see the stamp press at Bonnie's best Tools? I was tempted but didn't get it. I really don't need one more tool to set on my table or shelf unless it is very useful. I am sorry we missed each other.

Thanks, Paula! I am saving up already, as I LOVE to spend $$ at this show. We get so few current items here in our neck of the woods, I tend to go overboard...
Question for Cindi (or anyone at the MA show last year) - Were they at the show last year? Do I remember buying from them, or am I just losing it again?
