Psst! (Sorry, I'm not in this picture) - Photo from Canadian Design Bloggers West blog

A big thank you to IKEA Canada and the organizers from Canadian Design Bloggers West who arranged such a lovely and generous evening at BLEND2011 during IDSwest this weekend! Especially the ladies who did all the hard work: Victoria Lambert of Edins House, Barbara Matson of Hodge Podge, Karla Adamatsu of Kerrisdale Design and Nancy Marcus-Gueret of Marcus Design.  Also fun to meet Rosa Pearson of flutterflutter, Erica Cook of Erica Cook Design, Sharon and Yvonne of Layers and Layers, Rachel and Lily of Birch + Bird, Tracy Ayton of Tracy Ayton Photography, Lesley of Smidgebox, Heather Ross of Heather Ross In House and thanks for keeping it real (and fun) Janis of Pinecone Camp! I'm sorry if I missed someone here, it was a whirlwind meet-up to say the least! It was fun to meet so many of you finally!  Also a big shout out to Loden Hotel where the event was held. Hope to meet up with you all again soon!
