All Things Silhouette Conference

Hello Friends! Happy Saturday! Do you have any good plans for the weekend? I know the temperature is starting to drop across the country, and speaking of that I spoke to my mom yesterday who lives in Ohio and she said it snowed! What's up with that? It's been unseasonably warm here, it was 88 yesterday but today it's overcast and not quite as warm.

So, I wanted to pop in to tell you about this awesome conference I attended last weekend. It was the All Things Silhouette Conference and it took place in Peachtree City, GA. It was hosted by Terri Johnson of Terri Johnson Creates and it was awesome! She had some heavy hitters in the Silhouette world teaching classes and helping us get the most out of our Silhouette Cameo's. There were roughly 400 people there and we met a few women who had not taken the machine out of the box yet. I'm sure after the weekend was over they immediately went home and powered that sucker up!

I attended the conference with my crafty friend Leslie. We haven't seen each other in two years (she lives in Michigan) so it was a great girls weekend! We both learned a lot and I don't know about her, but I was on overload! We were literally in class for 6 hours on Saturday and Sunday and it was A LOT of information, but hopefully I retained some of it! LOL! Here's a pic of us at the conference.
They also had a vendor fair with lots and lots of "stuff" to purchase! We were both very good and spent a minimal amount, but it was nice to shop none-the-less! The hotel was a HUGE conference center, and one of our classes was in an amphitheater that held 200 people. The seats even had outlets to plug in your laptop it was a really top notch location. Also, while we were there one of the presenters, who just happens to my Silhouette Idol was there...Lori Whitlock! She is awesome and she is SO nice! Here's a pic of us.
Needless to say, I had a great time! I felt that I learned something in all of the classes we took and now it's just a matter of me getting in my craft room and cutting something!
 
I hope you have a great weekend, and thank you for stopping by!
