Look at that LOOT!!!

 

SERIOUSLY!!!  I got 28 NEW stamp sets at Seminar!  I have been cutting today and indexing the last of them - so I can start stamping SOON!!!  I am dying to get my pinkies inky after such inspiration this weekend at Seminar.  The new stamps are all calling my name!  And check this out...

 

7 whole packs of paper plus color charts too for our new cardstocks and the new memento line of products that we now carry! (matching Ink pads, re-inkers, markers, glitter glue and complimentary cardstock!)

It was an amazing weekend - we ended with a "Prop Swap Party" which was absolutely AMAZING!!!  So much talent and the things that were created were just specTACular!  I was sooooooo lucky to have received one of my downlines (Michelle McDaniel of Creative Journey) and I just squealed when I saw it!!!

 

The top area is magnetic and those tags are magnets!the little flowers are puch pins - and the ribbon can hold notes too!

So be looking for more NEW stuff SOON - starting out with another sketch tomorrow!  New stamps and a sketch card are in my near future...

This is a fun sketch - I hope you give it a try and share your linky with the blog hop below.  It is super easy to add your linky and add the code to your blog so it shows up right on your blog too!

 

Things got a little hectic there for a while and I am hoping that this week will allow me to get back on track!  I have a pit of a studio to get straightened up, videos to make and lots of future events to plan!

This weekend I am looking forward to another great Copic class at The Angel Company!  This is their advanced techniques class and I can't wait!  I also have a wedding to go to - for which I am to make pumpkin rolls.  They are doing "Family Favorites" deserts - and I got elected.  They are pretty yummy!  I will also have my own Copic Coloring  Happy Hour on September 30th - to pass on the things I learn about coloring with these fabulous markers. 

I made a swap card for my team meeting yesterday that turned out pretty cute!  I used one of the upcoming stamp sets from our Fall Supplement which is due out October 1st.  This set is available in the Thousand Thanks Special preview pack of stamps from the Fall supplement - I love them ALL!!

I just LOVE the new Scor- Buddy!  It is so handy and even fits in the center of my Tote-ally Cool Tote!  That rocks when things just "fit" ya know?  I scored the diagonal Latice pattern and then rubbed over top with the VersaMark Pad to bring it out a bit.

The color is a little off in the pictures - the green/blue is actually a darker teal color - the first picture catches it the closest but even it is off a bit.   So imagine it a darke blue k?  :-)

I have been hearing that the Grab Bags for $10 are just PHENOMENAL value - so if you want to get one get me your order ASAP - because they are going fast.  There have been reports (and I have seen some) that there are Bind It All's, Tray Chic's, Big Shot Accessories, Cardstocks, papers, Mini Books and albums - just TONS of great stuff!  You can go right to the shopping cart and order yours HERE.  I reccomend getting a few sheets of Creative Cling if you get the $5 grab bag or the $50 surprise box because both have a TON of stamps without cushion in them.

A little love...

I have a Velentine's Day card to share today with a little twist to the stamps that I used.  I started out with the Springs stamp set

I used the heart branch - but I wanted a different effect to the hearts rather than just coloring them in.  So I took a single heart from the Build a Background hostess set - and used it to "color in" the hearts on my branch with Belle Rose Ink.  I inked up the heart and then stamped it several times on one of the hearts on the branch then re-inked and went to another heart.  I LOVE the effect it gave!

I kept the rest of the card really simple just to showcase the stamping on the branch by just using a piece of American Crafts ribbon and some Aqua staples to secure it.   I love how whimsical and fresh the branch look - don't you???

Well for today on my agenda - same things as usual!  I actually got WAY distracted yesterday playing with Domioes, Sharpie markers, my Krylon silver pen and my stamps!  In fact I pulled out some old retired TAC images that I have been hanging onto - and I made some REALLY cool domioes that will make cute pendants!   Don't ya think???

 
 
Wait til you see them with Sterling Silver wire and Ball chain necklaces.   I will be listing them on my etsy shop as soon as I get them wired up.  They would make great magnets too!

Did I mention my kids are on their second SNOW day??  First day was seriously ALL fighting - it is even way too cold for them to go outside even for just a little bit.  Today they are all into playing cards - so I might be playing a little golf with Logan later!

Hope you get to PLAY today!
 

Monday Sketch 75 - time to catch up!

Yesterday was just way too nice to be in the studio all day - I actually spent most of it on my bike with my kiddos!   It was a beautiful day and I seized the moment with them.  I remember how much I LOVED riding my bike when I was their age and I hope that we can ride together!

But today it is BACK to work!  Monday means time for a card sketch around here - so here is the sketch for this week.
If you give it a try be sure to leave your linky so we can all check it out!

I am planning on using some of the Spring into June sets for this card sketch and last weeks too!  They are ready to be sut out and just waiting to be inked!!! 

Don't tell anyone but I had last weeks card for the sketch done but I didn't like it!  So I did not post it!   I know it is probably ok - but  sometimes Tawanda is hanging out in my studio and she makes me do stupid stuff.  DO you have a Tawanda in your studio?  You probably don't even realize you do!  She is the little voice inside of YOU that makes you think you do not measure up, or your creations are not worthy.  My OZ-some Inkin' Angels Team like to tell her to shut up when we hear her at our team meetings - and I hope they continue to do that when they are at home alone too!  I think she is the loudest when we are alone.

So hopefully I have her muzzle on so I can do some creating today!  I might have to squeeze in another bike ride too though!
