The wonderfully talented (and amazingly nice!!) Amy Tan visited Spotlight stores recently in Australia. I was lucky enough to get to one of the stores to meet her, and a few of the Project Life Australia Group people in ‘real’ life! It was awesome!
I had rung the store weeks prior to check and ‘book’ a seat, and yep, in true Ali style, had called and re-checked four times. I think they were sick of me calling – mind you the first call they had no idea Amy was coming! Anyway, Jase was unfortunately working – despite me begging for him to get the day off!! So, after much planning, pleading and begging got enough people in to look after munchkins and pick up Haydos 🙂 All was good. It was a mammoth effort to get out of the door in ‘nice’ clothes without being swarmed with sticky fingers and snotty grotty noses!! Anyway, I arrived half an hour early as I was so worried about missing a seat or not getting a park! So, I got to see the set up and sit down and catch up on my words with friends games!
I have made a day book (from Amy’s range naturally) and here are some shots from it –
Inside – personalised just for me 🙂
My moment of stardom – Amy took a photo of my PL as it had the info card in it from Becky Higgin’s Core kits….
So none of my make and take’s are going to be ever used – haha! The card is stuck down here, but the tags *could* be removed if I wanted to….but they are so special! Amy blogged about her Brisbane visit here and it featured a few pictures from the Everton Park store and of me & my PL which I felt like a rockstar about! You can see it here.
Sorry for the picture overload – trust me, this is not all of them! I actually got these all printed from Persnickety Prints – their quality is amazing, so I think I will be using them a great deal more -especially seeing as they do the wonderful PL rounded corners!
So to Amy – a very very big –
Thanks Amy!
