My First Video… Spring Retreat Highlights!

Alright, Ladies! Bare with me! This is my VERY FIRST attempt at doing any kind of video work, so be kind, lol! Actually… I think it turned out pretty good considering.

So this video is one big highlight of The Heartfelt Stamper's Spring Retreat Weekend. It's much too difficult to capture the excitement and energy in photos – putting a video together seemed to be the only way!

So the "Name Badge Runway…" yeah, what a HOOT wasn't it!?!? Oh my goodness I was in hysterics the entire time – never in a million years did I expect everyone to have THAT much fun with it!!! The whole idea of it was I mailed everyone a piece of chipboard  a couple of weeks before the retreat and they were instructed to use it in any way they wished to create a Stampin' Up! made Name Badge for themselves…

While, when they got there Friday Night little did they know how they would be used! Out came the Name Badge Runway and everyone took turns walking down it to music… Jen was in on it and brought a Black Boa with her… it saved the day and helped everyone to get into it! But in the process it just became so silly that there was no real judging of the name badges (our judges got a bit carried away with their number ratings as you could see in the video) so we ended up just drawing names for the winners, but EVERYONE was a winner!

I was much too busy laughing and videotaping to really focus on the name badges so did a terrible job at taking still photos… so I only have 2 to share with you, but here they are!
