Create a Journal Class

Journal I'm holding a project class Friday, September 30th at 7pm.  Your class fee includes one Simply Scrappin' Kit of your choice from the Idea Book & Catalogue, and a 5×5 art journal.  We'll create a cover piece for the journal plus create decorated pockets and pages inside the journal.  You'll be able to use this handy book to jot down notes, sketches, memories and ideas.  You could use these as a jumping off point for future scrapbook pages, or simply use the journal itself as a mini scrapbook.

I posted this picture of an art journal I created over the weekend using the Beau Chateau Designer Series Paper and Beau Chateau Side Notes – so yours will be "similar but different" depending on which Simply Scrappin' Kit you pick! The Simply Scrappin' Kits start on page 188 in the Idea Book & Catalogue.  Contact me if you have any questions, or if you're ready to register for class – click below to pay by credit card or paypal account! Use the drop down menu to select with kit you'd like and it will be waiting for you at class. 

Simply Scrappin' Kit

Happy Holidays!!!

20110901_Holidaymini_en-CA The Stampin' Up! Holiday Mini Catalogue is now here!  This is a _fantastic_ mini catalogue (as the size of my demonstrator only pre-order shipment will attest).  So many great products including a fantastic scoring board!

Here's a link to the online copy.  I did send a number of copies out in the mail so I will be following up to be sure that they arrived safe & sound….if you didn't get a copy, please contact me and I'll be happy to make sure one gets to you! Otherwise, Happy Shopping!

Last Chance – don’t miss out!!

Just a reminder that the Buy 3, Get 1 Free Deal on Stampin' Up!'s Designer Series Paper AND the Summer Holiday Mini Catalogue will expire TOMORROW.  I know, like the CNE, it's another sign that the summer is drawing to a close….sorry to be the one to remind you! LOL.

Have no fear, though, with September comes Stampin' Up!'s Holiday Mini Catalogue which will help ease the sorrow of saying farewell to the Summer Mini (trust me!)… and the return of the monthly card class PLUS Stampers & Scrappers Club!  Need more information on any of the above? Please feel free to contact me!

Stampin’ Supplies

20110701_IBC_en-CA(1) I had a conversation with one of my newer members of my demonstrator team that reminded me to make sure everyone knew about this link! This link takes you to the stampin' supply list for the Idea Book & Catalogue.  The projects are labelled by page number and project (I think in general it goes left to right, top to bottom….) and the list includes all the supplies required to re-create that project!  I find that when I know what's been used to make something, it's much easier for me to figure out how it was created.  Often, I won't identically re-create something anyway – but use the original project as an inspiration guide for my version.

Oh…and here's the Stampin' Supply list for the Summer Mini Catalogue.  Don't forget to grab your Mini Catalogue products before the end of August!!

What are you doing on Friday Evening?

Just checking…I'm hosting my monthly Information Evening this Friday at 7pm.  If you're interested in discovering another income stream (and quite frankly, I'm sure that includes most of us!), you should attend this no cost, no obligation evening, here in Burlington!  Please RSVP to get directions.  If you aren't able to attend, we can always arrange to meet at another mutually convenient time, or you could attend next month.  I look forward to hearing from you!

Beats to Beat Cancer – Go Steve Go!!!!

I have to share this link with you.  A friend of mine, Steve Gaul, is in the midst of a world record attempt at marathon drumming!  The current record is 120 hours, so Steve is aiming for 121, and as I type this, he is at hour 104.  Absolutely AMAZING.  His efforts are not just for the record, though – he's also raising funds for cancer research.  Steve himself is a cancer survivor, and his current effort is dedicated to the memory of his beautiful sister Toni, who passed away after a long battle with cancer just last year.

You can read more about it here: http://www.beatstobeatcancer.com/

You can watch the live feed here: http://www2.thescore.com/video/drumathon-player.aspx

Most importantly, you can donate to Steve's efforts for the Canadian Cancer Society here: http://convio.cancer.ca/site/TR?px=3644211&fr_id=9750&pg=personal

Go Steve Go!!!!!

Special for August!

Hello!  As the Stampin' Up! stamp that quotes John Lennon goes "Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans".  Where has the time gone?  Sorry for that "radio silence" there.  Here in Canada, it's a long weekend YAY so I'm busy doing fun things like totally cleaning out my home office….which has been a long time coming.  Still not quite finished…but there's room to move in there now so that's progress.  My goal is to get it more or less done by this evening.  Wish me luck!!!

Video from CH Morning Live Appearance

If you weren't able to tune in live a week ago, here's the video of my segment on CH Morning Live.  I always have fun doing the show and this was no exception.  Bob (the co-host seen on the clip) had me laughing before we were even on air! The video is embedded below, but if you are reading this in a reader or email, it may not appear – if so, here's the link to the video on the yamstamps youtube channel. The segment was showing a few creative things you could do with children – so I featured mobiles and mini scrapbooks.

 

 

I'm finalizing my schedule for the next few months so if you're interested in hosting a workshop in your home and earning free product from the new Stampin' Up! Idea Book and Catalogue, please be sure to contact me!
