The Creative Connection Event, Day 2

Hey there, everyone! Last week I attended the first annual, Creative Connection Event in Minneapolis, MN. I’d never been to a purely networking/inspiration-driven conference like this one before and let me tell you, being around all of those creative spirits was just what the doctor ordered!

I was honored to speak on the Women Entrepreneur panel, alongside Cathie Filian, Heather Bailey, Kathy Cano-Murillo, and Christine Plantan (of Rusell+Hazel). I also had a lovely time, popping on on Tiffany Windsor’s (of Cool2Craft) PJ Party, the Where Women Create cocktail hour and, the Etsy Lab party.
I posted pictures from the first days’ events over on LarkCrafts.com, and thought I’d share shots from the 2nd day here.

    Hi Vickie!

    It was an amazing event…I’d like a do-over, so I can carve out more time to visit with more people (like you!).
    Details and how-to’s for all the event decorations (including the altered paper stuff above)are going up on my blog in the next couple of weeks!
