SO...... i WenT tO tHe gReaT sTAte FaiR of OkLAhoMA.....
Yup... I did. Well, I had a purpose.... I entered photos in the photo exhibit and wanted to see if I won any ribbons (did, but that's an entirely different story). My very cool husband, Jeff, went with me. We had Frozen Bananas, Fried Okra and a Wine-A-Rita (mix available at our store). After alcohol, he was pretty much putty in my hands so I talked him into visiting the hobby & craft exhibits to see if any of our fab customers had won any ribbons.....
AND Yes they did! So I'm going to crow about it..... Cock-A-Doodle-Do! In the Stamping & Scrapbooking category (only one I checked) our good friends, Kay McKinnis, Debbie Musick, Sue Bowers, & Debra Zink won a variety of ribbons. Debbie won the most (I quit counting after 5) with a multitude of 1st Place Blues & 2nd Place Reds. She entered a halloween tag made in one of Lisa's class and it won a 2nd Place Red..... she won numerous ribbons in the scrapbooking catagory with a variety of very clever books and shadow boxes. Kay McKinnis won ribbons for scrapbook pages, altered can top, and a very lovely stamped greeting card. Sue Bowers won a ribbon for a beautifully tole painted scrapbook cover (she is a fabulous tole painter) and Debra Zink had a 1st place blue ribbon winning Altered Birdfeeder decorated with stamping, embelishments and scrapbook papers. Oh, and I must also tell you that her mother, Eileen Sullivan, (who is also one of our favorite shoppers) won a 1st Place ribbon for photography in the Scenic catagory! Way to Go People!
After so much excitement I promptly went home and collapsed on the couch.....
That's it for now..... Until next post..... Happy Stampin!
