I taught another busy breakfast workshop. The gorgeous Sexy Suzy came all the way from Newcastle to help.
Time to shut them up with the blue lollipops.
works every time..lmao..!!!
which is more than I can say for these three..!!!!
Well you know how I love to label things.!!!!
The day flew by and I caught up with lots of old mates and much tea was drunk. Breaking down of the stand is always a nightmare, but the lovely Dawn, Bezzie Su and the gorgeous Howie helped us do it in record time. I won the award for most glamorous breaking down of stander. Here I am unloading the van with my very high, very strappy, very bondage sandals, 12 hours after putting them on this morning.
I got a gorgeous surprise when I got back to the studio. The lovely Pat dropped me a pressie off on the stand, with strict instructions not to open it till after the show. Well I was nearly in tears when I did. She has made me an altered book, with the theme being me and the inspiration I have given her. How stunning is that. I was completely overwhelmed and am soooooo honoured to be in receipt of such a precious gift. I am struggling to explain how much this means to me, that someone can make such a beautiful piece of work and then give it as a girt. It must have taken months to complete.
Struggling to hold the tears back.
Everything I have taught her was included. Look at this ace accordion envelope book.
Ooh gorgeous pull out drawers
Ooops they were filled with hearts, which fluttered everywhere....!!!!Howie and Emmi to the rescue
I will show you the book in more detail tomorrow. Thank you Pat from the bottom of my heart, I cant find the words to express the gratitude I feel, but I am humbled at the time and effort you have bestowed upon it. I will treasure it always. xxxEnjoy xx
Thanks for a fabulous workshop as ever Dy - loved playing with the paints and of course had to buy some lol. Looks like you had fun even though it must be such hard work. I too think you have been an inspiration for me and feel you have taught me all I know :0) In fact ive blogged about that today too! Cant wait till the Ranger University in 2 weeks time though I think you may need more lollies to shut Emma, Bee and Me up!
ReplyDeleteYou have some great friends/students! The boards look great - you can normally not get close enough to see them at the Pally, but I shall try!
ReplyDeleteLovely to see you yesterday - the stands look even better in the flesh! What a fab pressie - don't think I'd ever be able to give something so precious away - a gift to remember forever. It just shows what effect you have on people Dy xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Dyan for putting the technique and sample photos here so I can have a good look. :) You can never get close enough or stand still long enough at the shows to properly look. haha
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about the photographers - they get on my nerves too and I'm not even a stall holder. hahaha.
Glad the show and the new range launch has gone so well.
:)
Hi Dyan,
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a great show.
What do you have to do to get one of those special lollies??? :-)
The pressie you got looks fantastic
What a lovely thing for that lady to do.
Just shows how fabby you are. :-)
The sample boards look fantastic.
Hugs,
Michelle xx
I agree on the photographers issue - they were a complete pain -it was the first time that we'd been to the Papercraft show and those wielding cameras were an absolute nightmare! Glad you survived the show and what a gorgeous book! HOpe you're having a good day!
ReplyDeletehad a fabby workshop and I can't wait to do more in a weeks time. I hate taking piccies at shows because it is rude and ignorant when you are blocking other peoples way into the stall to buy scrummy stuff.
ReplyDeleteDon't know what Janet is on about, i promise I will be quiet most of the first hour at RU!!
