It was a fun weekend!

Monday 18 November 2013

I had a fun weekend with two classes.

On Friday night I had a Starbook Class with a friend - there was supposed to be two ladies, but the flu bug got one of them.  We had a fun time making a Starbook.  This is a great gift idea just in time for Christmas. There are pages to put pictures and also places for family and friends to write memories and messages. The great part about these albums is that they don't just have to be for Christmas.  I have a special one that I will share over the next week (can't share it now until after I've given it away).


If you're interested in making one of the these beautiful albums, I have a class scheduled on November 23rd from 1-4pm.  Cost is $35 and includes all of the materials  You can register by emailing me or clicking here.

On Saturday, 4 ladies got together to learn about Mixed Media.  I have such fun teaching this class - everyone can be as creative as the want to be, I just show them the technique.  In this class, 2 ladies made a Snowman and 2 made a Christmas tree.  I was so impressed with how creative they were.  I wanted to share their final creations.  Here's a picture of the ladies with their creations.  It's hard to see in the picture, but the pictures are all so different!  The creativity was amazing.
I wanted to share Patti's Christmas tree.  She was so creative and she said she'd never done this before.  Her tree was amazing!
I'd be happy to show you how you can create some amazing masterpieces using Mixed Media.  Email me to set up a date and time!

Thanks for stopping by!

Missing in Action - Down Under

Tuesday 12 November 2013

It's been a few weeks since I posted - so much has happened.  My husband and I spent a short vacation in Sydney, Australia.  We had a wonderful time and soaked up some of the lovely late Spring weather as Canada starts its' winter. As I've mentioned in early blog posts, I like to continue my creativity while traveling by capturing some pictures using My Digital Studio (MDS). 


If you haven't seen MDS before, it's a great program from Stampin' Up! that allows you to create digital projects - scrapbook pages, photo albums, calendars, cards, tags...and the list goes on and on.  MDS is available as a free trial for 30 days or is available for $24.95 (either as a download or as discs). Right now, for the month of November there are some great downloads available at 30% off and all print products are 30% off. 

On the long plane ride to and from Australia, I started a photo album for one of my sorority sisters - each year the President of our chapter gets a digital scrapbook of the memories of her year.  I have to get it finished to take advantage of the 30% off print products.

I also created 2 scrapbook pages of some of our memories of Sydney.  As you can see, we have a wonderful time!



 If you're interested in learning more about MDS, please email me.  I can help you get started!

Happy stamping
