Prima Art Venture...

Good morning my friends :-) Hoping all is well with everyone. I can't believe it's FEBRUARY already!!! We just celebrated New Years lol... oh well "time waits for no one"! 

So I had the extreme pleasure of attending Prima's first Art Venture with Leeza Gibbons in Palm Desert California January 18 - 20th, 2013. I had a fabulous time with tons of memories to last me a lifetime! Also a plus, was the friendship I made there :-) First let me tell you the wonderful and super nice staff of Prima Marketing made us feel like we were one big happy family and their talented Instructors were the best and coolest to create with!!! They were all so fun and down-to-earth :-)  I have also had the pleasure of meeting one of my youtube BFF in person for the first time!!! Janel (craftsponge) and we had soooo much fun together at the Art venture and sharing hotel room, we were like 'long time friends' lol... so here are some pictures with my friends and the Prima Family lol...
