Today I will post some fun pictures of CE... I have a bit more work to do on a couple of my projects before "showcasing" my finished projects!! {But I will say, I have maybe 10 more mins per project... they work ya really hard and fast, but it is so nice to come home with finished and nearly finished projects!}
In Creative Escape tradition... (and because I uploaded my pic in reverse order...) Let's start with dessert!!
Sprinkles cupcakes with CE colors!! I love my red velvet!!
The suppers were delicious, I even had vegetables I had never even heard of :)
As Heidi says, "Desserts and fruits don't belong together" So after our fruity first night she made sure we had this yummy snicker cheesecake/mousse ball of yummy goodness!!! :) {I'm sure it was only 1 point in Weight Watchers, right??}
But even the fruit felt like dessert!!
Keep your eyes out... you never know what you will find :) hehehehe
These are the amazing ladies in my classes and at meals that kept us laughing, smiling, talking (a lot), and became our new friends! Can't wait to see them all next year!!
Are you ready to see what all of the buzz was about??? Here is Heidi's lamp... bringing in $8200 for charity... {I LOVE IT!!! When the lamp is off you don't see the writing, but when it is on it glows a really neat quote. Also, the broach is from her personal jewelry box!!}
... and here is Tim's that brought in $29,500!!! {again, all vintage goodies from his studio}
I love this pin!! It reminded me of friends back home!! :)
"She knew with the right amount of junk she could create a masterpiece!"
And I LOVE this quote from Tim Holtz stamp set... Yes, this will be a vinyl quote in my living room, very soon!
Here is a little piece of Heaven... they call it Mystic Paper!! :) It was all vintage!! It was all of the junk store finds you can find in like 100 junk store trips all in one place! I can't wait to go back!!

... and then there was this store... I refer to as "the ribbon store" It was wall to wall ribbons!! Not to mention they had some of the COOLEST displays and ideas!! I am excited to make a few of them!!
Back at CE we were sent out on a safari treasure hunt. At each station we had to take silly pics :) It was lots of fun!! Here are just a two stops on our hunt!
This Robyn, my friend that came along to be my roomie :) I didn't really know her when we started off on the trip... we were from the same hometown, and had mutual friends, but didn't really "know" her... after spending 5 days with her... she is a strong woman with a good heart, and I am glad to now call her my friend.
I will post pics of all of my teachers later today... now I am off to take my mom back to the airport. Thank you sooooo much, Mom, for the amazing, life changing experience of Creative Escape, and for spending the time with my family while I was gone. Love you!!
