Hi Stampers :
WOW if only both events lasted as long as excitement of the anticipation .
Shelli being here Reminded me of Christmas day .. 
I couldn't wait till the big day was here to rip into those gifts when I was younger . Wishing the BIG day would last alittle longer and not be over which seemed like only minutes.

It was Amazing . Shelli is sooo AWESOME! I really don't know who was more star gazed with her actually being in the same room with all of us .
Shelli had arrived to the Hotel conference room I had reserved for the Big day of events. We had plans to get something to eat before the event/s started since the evening was jammed packed with 2 events starting at 5:00pm
We grabbed something to eat at the Hotel cafe' and WOW having alone time with Shelli and Sara was just what I needed to set my nerves at ease .
I had been following her blog HERE ever since these amazing events started and I noticed in just about every post she made re: the event she mentions her being nervous ..
OH MY GOODNESS! I never thought that for a single moment Shelli would be nervous, Since this Workshop of a lifetime was her baby from the get go .. I really don't think she knew what she was getting into Jet setting across the USA and Canada for 24 very blessed Demonstrators.
After having a handful of the workshop of a lifetime events already before coming to me,( I am #12 of 24 ) Shelli made my workshop of a lifetime seem like the 1st one on the list, 
With No signs of being tired , No signs of being less excited to be repeating the event again for me and all my guests . Shelli is just so Wonderful !
I had a request for Shelli to sign all the name tags I had made for everyone ahead of time with My Digital studio so it wouldn't take time out of the actual event for Autographs from the One and Only Shelli Gardner Co founder and CEO of Stampin Up! Something super sweet is I got to autograph Sara & Shelli's name tag ..
Shelli had everything for the workshop of a lifetime and this was the 1st time I actually attended a workshop without doing all the preparations . 
It was sooo awesome to see her excitement as everything flowed and how everyone was hypnotized by her presence . Seriously It was AMAZING!!
Through out the evening I had to pinch myself often to make sure I wasn't dreaming. Shelli gave me all the projects she stamped for the workshop .
Shelli brought this amazing display to set on her table. LOVE IT!!
We all got to make her project she brought for all of us to make . sooo super cute ! We used the Brand new Awash with Flowers stamp set for our card
Just look at how adorable her projects are 🙂
Thank you so much Shelli for everything . Words can not express what an amazing woman Shelli is and How very Blessed I am to be a part of your world with Stampin'Up! . I Really LOVE my job.
Stay tuned for even more updates tomorrow from my Glitter Queens meeting . I have so many photos from the events that I will share over the next few days .
I will give you a sneak peek of who else came 🙂 My Friend JAN TINK was there !!
