Paper Cowgirl Event 2011!!
Back from Paper Cowgirl 2011 with a carload of vintage goodies, and a memory of a fabulous weekend! Loved seeing old friends and making new ones this year. We started with a meet and greet at the Dove's Nest, where instructors were introduced, and Lisa Pace spoke on publishing artwork. The Swap Exchange was the next event. My swaps were amazing!! I received a gorgeous nametag from Cassie and an romantic styled inspiration board from Suzy. The next day I gave my Digi Art Girl Class. I was so excited to have a full house..and them some! We created some fun projects and learned new tricks and tips. This was my second year to teach a digi class.
Friday evening was Cowgirl Prom Night! We gathered at the town's historical downtown shopping area and ate and shopped. My favorite shops were the Crafty Scrapper and the Dove's Nest. We ended the night with cupcakes and frosting shots (yum!)at a darling shop called Polkadots.
Saturday morning I took a class from my Silver Bella friend, Karla Nathan. We made the cutest little dress form! I loved all that she said and taught. She's a doll!
Saturday night was Vendor Night. My booth was right near the booths of Ann Denise, Joanna, and Jennifer B. The shopping was crazy fun!! Got a few things...
Here are some random shots of the weekend!! Can't wait til next year!

Velveeta Box Challenge!
I'm so excited to be a part in the Paper Cowgirl Velveeta Box Challenge 2011!! The boxes in the challenge will be auctioned off to raise funds for Paper Cowgirl's Co-Founder Tina Wright's Scholarship Fund. I made one of my fun shabby flowers and added a sparkly turtle. The tag was one from a fun swap last year. All of the trims and ribbons are vintage.
Now to make some Queso with all that cheese!!!
