Stamping on Holding

Hello Stamping Friends and Blog Followers!

It has been quite a while since I have posted any creative projects.  My stamping hobby has kind of been on hold for a little bit due to some hecticness in our family.  I am happy to say that everything should be back to normal real soon.  This means that I will be posting/uploading the creative projects I have made using the wonderful Stmapin' Up! products to provide you inspiration as well as hosting stamping events (ie: stamp camps, clubs, etc).  The Christmas stamp camps that I usually host every year starting September through to December will be going ahead.  I will post the details towards the end of July or early August.  As always, Thank You for your continued support.  You are appreciated!

Happy Stamping!

Digger Fun Scrapbook Page


Happy Valentine's Day.  You would think that I would have a "heart" themed scrapbook page uploaded today being it is Valentine's Day and all, but I don't.  Instead it is a scrapbook page of my son playing on his digger.

The above scrapbook layout is one that I will be featuring at my February 24, 2013 Stamping Technique and Scrapbook Class.  How this class works is as follows:

Stamping Technique & Scrapbook Class
You need to bring adhesive, scissors and two (2) 12" x 12" pieces of card stock for the base of the scrapbook layout and I supply you with the rest.

When:  Sunday, February 24, 2013
Time: 2:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Where:  at my house (address will be given upon registration)
Cost: a minimum $35.00 Stampin' Up! order
RSVP: by February 20, 2013 by clicking on Register me

I will upload the card that we will be doing shortly.  So make sure you visit this website often so you don't miss that project.

The 12" x 12" card stock that I used above is Midnight Muse card stock.  If you don't have this color that is fine you can use any color.  If you do plan on attending my scrapbook classes I would suggest ordering the 2012-2014 In-Colors as I will be using mostly those colors as the base pages of my scrapbook layouts.

Remember the theme of the above scrapbook layout is just a guide, if you have a different theme that you would like to scrapbook please feel free to create your own.  Also let me know in advance what your theme is going to be and I will try and make sure that I have some stamp sets that coordinate with your theme (if I own them).

Happy Stamping!
