For the past 5 years, I've attended the
Prime Networking Event for bloggers that takes place during the Creativation show. This year's sponsors included:
- Deflecto
- Leisure Arts
- Love Crafts
- Marvy Uchida
- Plaid
- Rinea
- Spinrite (Yarnspirations)
- Styletech Crafts/Tape Technologies
- Xyron
Many of the sponsors sent us home with new products to try out. We were encouraged to submit our most creative designs to the Best Blogger Contest for a chance to win cash prizes.
I made three projects for the contest and today they are announcing the finalists. Since I'm writing this ahead of time, I have no idea if any of my projects are amongst them. Regardless, I'd encourage you to
check out the projects and vote for your favorite. Voting ends on April 23.
Win or lose, I can't share the projects I've made here on the blog for another 3 months. It's so hard to have to wait!
