I cannot BELIEVE that after all this time, I finally met my friend Millie!!! Look at this beautiful lady! I got to meet her hubby too, and he's just as sweet as she is. He pretends he doesn't love their cat, but I know the truth, Mr. Millie!

Then, I got to meet my sweet Canadian friend Gail (basketballmom on Splitcoast) who was kind enough to have her picture taken with the shortest person she's ever met :)

The displays that opened last night were AMAZING. They took the stamps and accessories and turned them into pop art. It was so fun.

Here's one of Shelli's projects from Main stage - gorgeous hand sewn sachet - look at the glass glitter on the bottom. This was made with our Leadership set - we'll get that tonight at Make & Takes.
