Ally Pally Weekend

So I just had a fab fun weekend spent at the big stamp and scrapbooking show.
My darling Mummy made this weekend possible and I thank her muchly as I love meeting up with friends old and new xo I just wish everyone didn't live so far apart.. But anywhoooooo.
The first thing was to get this shot

Then the hordes arrived and took over the PA stand..


Leandra and Lin were straight into demoing the fab new paint colours and new stampage..


And Gillian was showing off her samples getting Lin to shop shop shop lol


Helen and Lin B on their phones while Lin and Anna just mill about.
Then I headed over to annoy Sam Poole and the MDF man.


I only managed 1 shot of the #PAtwit meet up we had after the show on Saturday, Not as many as in april but it was still nice to rest the feet and have a little natter with everyone before heading home.


On sunday I managed to snap Don and Val of Snazzy's before things got going


Here is Gilly and Leandra ready for their day of demo's


The calm didn't last long as soon it was busy busy 


The crowds gather


To the point I couldn't get near.. Gilly was in her element!


Me and my pint size pal Alison... {she's on her tiptoes you know lol}


Then I found Lucy and Lin mooching at the PA stand once it had quietened down.

And that was all the pics I got.. I was too busy nattering and watching demos oh and a smidge of shopping
The pics came out a bit fuzzy but i'll share um anyway.. I also got a tray, set of draws and lots of hardware from the MDF man but forgot to take a pic.


So that was my weekend.. How was yours?
Stay Inky
