Crop& Create Moncton…The Recap…and a GIVEAWAY (at the end)
After a few days of recovery I am here to tell you all about the amazing time the Crop & Create crew had in Moncton!! Such a stellar group of ladies. Grab a drink and pull up a chair…it’s a long one!! Giveaway at the end!!!!
Here’s the story…
We walked on the tarmac to hop on this sweet ride. I was worried we might have to flap our arms…but we did not. Picked up Kelly from SK in the airport!
Our C&C Crew for Moncton…
Catherine, Angie and I.
Moncton, baby.
Snow. Lots and lots of snow!!!
And then…more snow. It sure was pretty…from inside.
I had the opportunity (have to look for the positive in everything) to practice my Michonne skills in the snow. Killing it!
This is Michonne…she wields a ninja sword just as well as I do a snow brush (it was really more like a toothbrush). I had to throw a Walking Dead reference in there.
All of Us
Stacey and Kim from Spellbinders, Catherine, Angie, ME and Jodi from Fancy Pants Designs. LOVE every. single. one. of. them. Seriously…lovely, talented, generous group right here!!!
