Philadelphia, PA Scrap & Stamp Classes!

Monday, April 13th, 2009

Are you near Philadelphia, PA?  This Friday, Saturday & Sunday, I will be in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, at the Sheridon Town Center,  ScrappingGetaways.com Scrapbooking Weekend event as a vendor and offering my signature ‘Scrapbooking for the Attention Deficit Adult” classes (i.e., flip books, 6×6 albums… basically things that you can finish in 1 – 1 1/2 hours… before you get bored with it). My classes are ‘on demand’ (at your convenience) all weekend, so you can just walk in and take them as well as shop with other fine local scrapping vendors.

Flip Book Class

If you can stay for the weekend (register and reserve a table for the weekend or a day) you’ll have a fabulous time.  It is the happiest bunch of gals I have ever been around!  I am working 10am-10pm Friday, Saturday & Sunday (not including breaks)… and you can feel free to reserve your intention to take a class HERE (or you can surprise me and show up).

I also have other make & takes available to do if you just want to visit me and stamp… I will have a cute Mother’s Day project to do and always one free make & take.  Mention this blog post for a FREE gift from me!!!  I’d love to see you!

If you can’t make it, you can see my online tutorial for the Flip Book here.

Secret Garden Scrappin' Memories Kit 6x6

 Again, this is my favorite Scrappin’ Memories Kit!  I do really love them all and will be publishing them in upcoming blog entries… a full tutorial on how to make these great 6×6 albums are on my Project Gallery.

On a personal note, I will be at the Stampin’ Up! Regional Conference on Saturday, September 15th in Philadelphia with some team members and friends.  I am so excited it is back on the East coast again!  Anyway, I was looking forward to enjoying it as a slacker UNITL I was called by Stampin’ Up! to share a “5 minute “Workshop WOW” while I’m there…  I’m not sure if the butterflies in my stomach are excitement (or if I’m just going to toss my lunch at the thought!).

I’m usually the ’big mouth in the back of the room’ so it should be interesting to present to a few hundred very saavy Secret Garden 6x6 opendemonstrators (instead of unsuspecting, possibly creatively-impaired ‘friends of the hostess’ who came to her workshop because the hostess came to her Longerberger party, LOL!).

On another personal note, I am excited to be nominated as a “Creative Blogger” by Yvonne Campbell a demonstrator in the newly added (the the Stampin’ Up! world) country of Australia. You can see her site at www.campbellcreations.net)… give her your excitement and kudos for ‘going where few have gone before’ and conquering Australia for Stampin’ Up!

 I have also been tagged a “Rockin’ Girl Blogger” by Julie Ferguson (www.jadesbutterflies.blogspot.com).  I have taken too long I think to acknowedge these and I will be nominating Secret Garden 6x6 fully openedmy own picks very soon!

Altered Clipboard

Monday, July 23rd, 2007

Altered Clipboard

I am excited to show my team what we will be making this at our Quarterly “Impress Me” Team Meeting, on August 13th.  I have been looking to make a WOW project to entice you ladies to think of stamping this summer!  

And as if that isn’t enough, our special guest is the lovely and talented Amanda Coughlin who will be up from Florida to share her stamping magic with us at this meeting as well.  For my customers: LOOK for a class for this in September… check for my upcoming newsletter.

I used the new 9×9 chipboard clipboards that we sell with my new favorite Scrappin’ Memories(r) kit “Secret Garden”… fabulous papers in the new colors. 

I accented this clipboard with the “Pretties” kit which includes diamond rhinestone brads, pearls (and “half pearls” suitable for gluing on a flat surface) and silk flowers that dye easily.  I used my sponge daubers to dye some flowers and also used a few drops of re-inkers diluted in water to dye others. 

You can dry the dyed flowers immediately by pressing them in paper towels.  I glued these embellishments on with Crystal Effects–I discovered the amazing permanent gluing capabilities of this product when a bottle of it opened in my luggage coming back from Convention 2005!

There is a ‘fold out’ accordion book made from the papers included in the kit.  Actually, this didn’t even take half of all the paper and pre-adhesive dye cuts that come with the kit!  I will be posting the 6×6 memory album that I made with it (gotta take a picture!)
