Woo hoo. That sounds like some fun times for you. Our EXPO hasn't been back since the 2019 season. They said they can't find a place to have it. No place in Denver? Hmmmm.

That sounds like some awesome fun! I've never been to an expo. I wouldn't even know what to expect. I'd probably be completely overwhelmed. I'm a small stash, defined boundaries kind of girl.

I’ve done that before. Made a whole weekend of it and shopped the local stores. But not WA. It was UT. Been a while though. I was thinking about that just today. Have a fun trip!

Yay! I used to go to Santa Clara and Sacramento, but haven't been since before the pandemic. Loved it!

Yea Don! Have a fun time! I got out way too much stuff to make a few Valentine's cards. It was fun to remember what I owned. I have to say, I do enjoy my stash just like you.

I used to go to Santa Clara The only Bay Area one now is Pleasanton which is the first weekend in March this year, I believe. I wish they still did the Santa Clara one, it's so close to my house. |

don I didn't know you are from Puyallup! I lived in Federal Way until I was 11, then moved to Puyallup until I got married (my mom worked for Puyallup Public Schools). My parents are still there. Enjoy the expo!

craftymom101 I don't live in Puyallup, I live in Bothell 40+ miles away. That's why I booked a room down there.

Don, I'm so excited for you! Hope you have the best time. I miss going to the CK conventions and other sb get-togethers. Enjoy every bit of it and let us know how everything went.
And I never pronounce "Puyallup" correctly. Somehow in my head it's "Pull yawl up".

Oh, really? I remember going to it YEARS ago and am happy it is back. I will definitely go! (I should start figuring out a budget because last time I was doing very nicely until I hit a booth with a ton of matching stamps and dies).
ETA: reading through this thread took me down a really nice memory lane of all of the CK conventions and expos I've gone to over the years. I remember going to my first in Charlotte, NC in the early 2000s, and making a special trip down to Portland from Seattle when there was a CK convention there (they used to hold them in Bellevue here, and I'd look forward to them every year).

Is there a thread that lists all the expos and conventions? Not that I need to go to one, but I'd love to know where and when they might be in my area.

I don't think there is a thread but these are the ones I have attended. They should have locations listed on their websites. I think I follow all of them on Facebook as well where they post updates. www.ckscrapbookevents.com/ - I'll be attending GASC in Arlington, TX in June! scrapbookexpo.com/stampscraparttour.com/ |
