This past weekend was the 2nd of two Happy Birthday, Fiskars! crops. And we had another Fisk-a-Fabulous time!
I had the opportunity to meet another group of wonderful Fiskateers! I have said it before, but I just Love meeting Fiskateers. We share a common bond over our passion to be creative and instant friendships are borne.
There was a lot of crafting going on (I even finished a layout… more on that later!) and Sandra won the raffle basket at the crop.
And Teresa took home something special, too! Yes, she took home a kitty named “Frankie” (as in the Push ‘n Print Stamp Factory) it was just meant to be.

After the crop, half of us went out to dinner where we shared more laughs thanks to our very entertaining waiter, Ken. And Fran met her ‘mini-me’ (be sure to check out Laura’s gallery for the photo!)
I have gone through every entry for the on-line challenge and boy were You some busy croppers. Congratulations to Suzi #5563! Email your address and phone number to me at kellyjo@fiskateers.com.
Thank You to everyone who played along. I think we will have to play this again soon! I think my next crop will be in my hometown of Lockport, NY in July during a trip home for a family wedding. I’ll get details on the calendar as soon as I have them.
