My favourite part of the Heartfelt Event in Sydney

 The best part about the Stampin' Up! Heartfelt event in Sydney on Saturday was...

 sharing time and stamping with my friends!

In previous years the event at this time of year is usually called Regional Training. This year was very different in that it was a Heartfelt event designed for demonstrators and their customers.

The presentations and the demonstrations are always amazing.

 However, sharing the event with a guest put the shimmer on the cake.

One of the new parts of the event which was really well done were the Demonstration booths.
My favourite was Linda Higgin's session. She was demonstrating window sheet WOW projects.

One of my favourite Wow's that Linda had on display was the acetate (window sheet) Floral Framlit cards with glimmer paper and butterflies in the centre.

Supurb aren't they?

Another special feature of the Heartfelt event was the Product Playground.

We saw this first at Convention in Canberra last May. It was very popular and it was great seeing so many people getting the opportunity to try the new tools and products.

 Jill and I spent a lot of time at the Big shot tables.... experimenting with dry embossing folders,

Core-dinations cardstock and the framelit dies.

And then we had a "wheely" good time at the wheel table: using the new illuminate ink pad, build-a-wheels and ink techniques.

We visited Kirrily, Juliette and Ellen's table to see the coloured and scented embossing powders being used with New heat setting tool.

The scented embossing powders are going to make Christams cards and gifts a multi-scensary experience this year.

Heartfelt was full of so many favourites ... we even made our own Christmas tree decoration to hang on the heartfelt tree and received a stamp as a gift.

Thank you Stampin' Up! and all my friends for making it a special day!

Let's do it again next year.
