Yee-HAW!!!  I'm going to the Texas Cricut Stampede!!!  It's kind of a last-minute decision as the event is in 3 weeks, but I'm super excited!  Actually, I'm going to help out with the event, and Nana Susan is coming with me - we just booked our flight today.  We will both be Creative Critterz staff members for the weekend, and will help out with make-n-takes, etc.  We will also be bringing kits with us that will be for sale.  In fact, I'm planning a special layout kit specifically for this event, and can't wait to show it to you!


The Cricut Stampede is in Frisco, Texas from March 18th-20th. I believe there are still a few spots available, so you can find more info HERE.  Last I heard, there are 182 people registered, and they are flying in from all over the place.  It's going to be incredible, and I'm sooooo looking forward to meeting so many cool people!  So make sure you tell me if you're going to be there!


Btw, NEXT WEEK is going to be a very exciting week around here, so do NOT miss it!!! I will tell you more on Sunday - promise! And be sure to leave a comment today for a chance to win a custom-designed layout with the theme of your choice. I'll be drawing the winner for that this weekend. Who's it gonna be????

I wish that was happening in my side of town. It would be nice to meet you, purchase one of your layout kits, and admire in person your talents and skills. Have a wonderful time!! btw - where is Rocklin?

shanna said...

Have fun. I wish I could go.

Raquel SK said...

Oh this is great! I'm sure you ladies will have such a great time. I only wish it were here in N.Y., because the wintery weather is so blah that a stampede would be a breath of fresh air. I'm sure your projects will be a hit as well! I look forward to seeing pictures :)

Vickie said...

How wonderful for you both. I had wanted to go when I first heard about it, but now that you are going to be there I really want to go need to win the lottery cause I don't have the $$ right now, maybe next year???? Have a great time. Enjoy!!!
