Sensational Sunday

Many of you braved the stormy Sunday to see Nancy's demo...so glad you did!

Take a look at these so sweet stamps from Penny Black, featuring 'Mimi' and friends...Nancy created the cutest cards and tags...



And ornaments, mini books, place cards, accordion cards, folding cards and more...One of my favorites is the folding snowflake ornament, which is surprisingly easy to make.!



Nancy also showed you how to make an adorable hanging calender featuring Graphic 45 paper and 2012 calender stickers from SRM...you could quickly make several of these thrifty projects for those last minute gifts we all seem to need...for bunco groups, teachers aides, co-workers to name a few...


Here are the pictures of the cards created in Barb's 'Quickie Stickies' class. So beautiful, and made from one large sheet of Penny Black stickers...







With the addition of a bit of stamping, ribbon, creative cutting and layering, students made 6 of the loveliest Christmas cards I've ever seen...these are going to be hard to part with!

Thanks for stopping by!

ATC Trade Fun

The ATC trade on Saturday featured some of our favorites from Red Lead Stamps...we just love their sweet vintage images...Michele shared her skills in turning these wonderful stamps into fabulous Artist Trading Cards...



Red Lead and Rubbermoon stamps...great for ATC's as well as cards and tags...


Getting a close up view of the details in putting these little treasures together...




We welcome new trader Ana... Dorothy and Ana are looking over their ATC binders. Ana's beautifully decorated ATC binder was a hit and was passed around for all to admire...



Several traders couldn't make it to the store so we happily traded for them!



Our trades are always energetic! Carol and Wendy are sharing their binders...these gals make beautiful ATC's...always hard to choose which one!



We strongly believe in keeping the traders well nourished...


Thanks for stopping by today...
