If you're wondering how Stampin' Up!'s clear mount stamps work, I've created a video that you can watch HERE. It's on my youtube channel (Yamstamps, natch!) and there was a link in my recent newsletter. Enjoy!! Please contact me if you have any questions about any of Stampin' Up!'s products.
Click on the image to watch a video on the Princess & Pirates Party kits that are the last Deal of the Week. Remember – this Deal ends TONIGHT!! (Boo! Scary!).
In the meantime, have a Happy Hallowe'en, and fingers crossed that my computer issues (speaking of Boo! Scary!) are resolved today with yet another phone call with Microsoft support.
Here's the video of my recent CH Morning Live Appearance. Click here if you're getting this post by email or through a reader as the video doesn't show up for some strange reason… The theme was crafts to do with kids, but I also geared it to the "manly" factor as I was working with Bob Cowan, the male co-host, who has a great sense of humour (even if he can't pronounce my last name…lol). More project pics to follow in future posts. I am offering a mobile class in July & August open to adults and/or children – information on the classes page, or contact me if you have any questions.
Thanks again to CH Morning Live for having me on the show yesterday, and if you're new to my site, welcome! Please be sure to sign up for my newsletter (see the box at the left) to get more project ideas and tips in your email inbox.
This is the fun flip flop mini scrapbook that I shared. A cheap pair of flip flops disguises the accordian fold page within. I used the Serif Essentials Big Shot Bigz Die to cut out the letters (or you could stamp them too) and then cut the photos to size. My pages were about 2.5" wide, which is as wide as the flip flops, so you'll need to measure your flip flops to figure out which is the right width. I used 2 lengths of cardstock to create the page above.
I'll post another sample tomorrow so please come back to www.yamstamps.com to see what's new!
OK…if I've done this correctly, this should post just as I'm going on air on CH Morning Live. I've been fortunate enough to be invited back to the show to share some summer kids crafts. These are two mobiles I created – a butterfly version and a rocket ship version. Both are essentially the same concept – the rockets were stamped in Staz On Black and coloured with the Stampin' Write markers, before being punched out with a circle punch. The butterflies are die cut with the Big Shot and showcase Stampin' Up!'s double sided designer series paper. Super fun & easy!
