Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!!!



Good morning everyone!  

Thank you for all the positive comments about Junkie fest 2018!  I'm so glad you are as excited about it as I am.  Honestly, I was really nervous about attempting this event.  Would anyone want to come?  Am I just signing away thousands and thousands of dollars?

But HOLY COW.

These amazing people and companies listed below came through big time with their eager and generous support, donations of swag, door prizes, Make & Takes, and their time!  What a gift this is to me, to you, and to the Stamp Junkies community as a whole.  The idea of a building an in-person relationship along with our online Stamp Junkie friendships was extremely well-received and supported.  These kind people are amazing!  

Seriously amazing.

Thank you.
Thank you so much.

It means the world to me that this celebration can happen, and thanks to all this generous help, it will be fantastic.

Check out this huge list of donors, teachers and volunteers!!!
(If you study closely, you'll even guess some of the not-so-secret-anymore special guests.)  

Please support these willing and generous supporters of Junkie fest 2018 and the Stamp Junkies group.  At this event, there is no space for vendors or pop-up shops, so these donors are giving freely and willingly without possibility of an immediate return on their generosity.  If and when you place your future orders from these companies, please drop them a note and thank them for their fantastic products and support of this event.  


Here is where you can find all these people and companies.  All links are included.  Just click on them.



Incredible, isn't it?  I'm blown away.  And soooo excited.

    what an amazing list and I'm already a fan of so many of them!! Since I'm pretty close and this would be one of the few events I could actually attend I'm really hoping I can get a spot. This sounds like so much fun and would be my first cardmaking event. I've been to scrapbook retreats but would love to meet fellow cardmakers!

Just a Quick Junkie fest 2019 Overview

Image
There's been a lot of chatter lately, with accompanying speculation about Junkie fest 2019. While I do apologize for the delay in getting preliminary information out, there's just been so many pieces to this puzzle that have been slowly coming together, and will be continuing to come together in the next several weeks.  However, there are a few things that I CAN share now so you can do a bit of travel/airfare research, contemplating and saving. The most common feedback comment I heard regarding last year's event was that there were just too many activities crammed into too little time!  Attendees were giddy from exhaustion by Saturday night last year. I sure was! Yet at the same time, none of us really wanted it to end, either.   Junkie fest 2019 will be a three and a half day event.   One  more day allows for two more classes, a bit more relaxed pace event and opportunities for more social time. Junkie fest 2019 will again be held in the M...

Hi everyone! I'd like to give a huge thank you to all the amazing people and companies that help make Junkie fest 2019 happen.  These generous sponsors are donating time, prizes and products and I'm so grateful.  Their support is so very, very, appreciated.  I couldn't possibly pull this event off without their incredible help.
