Christmas

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!

We still have a GREAT selection of Christmas related product so stop in so you can start scrappin' all those pictures you took over the weekend.

Or maybe you want to send out thank you cards? Here's a super cute card Leslie made & colored with Copic Markers. Swap out the sentiment for a thank you and you are all set!

Christmas Page Extravaganza

Only one week now until Carrie's page Extravaganza! Last year this was a wild success. If you want to scrap some of your Christmas pictures FAST, join her. This is just one of the pages you'll be doing--love this paper line from Fancy Pants. Make one layout or make all 3, just call and sign up. Can't wait to see the other 2 layouts!

Clever!

On Saturday, Gloria stopped in and shared this little gift she made. Out of matchboxes! In the little "drawers" she has placed some treasures for the kids to open & enjoy.

We LOVE when you guys bring in your projects to share. Thanks Gloria!

An Easy Solution

Don't you just love getting Christmas cards in the mail. Seems like every day now another beautiful card arrives. But what to do with them after the holidays?

THIS is the perfect, easy solution. She simply took cardboard and decorated it for covers, punched holes with a Cropadile (that thing will punch through anything!) and presto--you've got a binder! Won't it be fun to flip through years from now?

Hero Stamps + Distress Stains

I came across this really nice video showing off one of the new stamps we got in from Hero Arts this past weekend AND how to use distress stains. The distress stains are new and we've had alot of questions on how to use them. Joy does a great job showing both products off here. Plus she has a fabulous Austrailian accent which is nice to listen to!!

Give the Gift of Scrapbook Skills!

So the days are flying by...and you still have someone on your list that you just don't know what to buy for Christmas. How about a gift certificate for a class at Scrapadoodle?

The perfect place to start is Scrapbooking 101 of course. Heather takes students through all the fundamentals and she offers this class once a month. Here is a sample of the page students will make next class.
Heather does a wonderful job teaching all about albums, adhesives, trimmers.....everything you need to know to get started. Students leave with a completed 2 page layout -- all they need to bring is the gift certificate you bought them and some pictures. EASY!!!

Memory Box

This week a new box of Memory Box dies arrived. We are big fans of these beautiful dies.If you are not familiar with them, here's the scoop. These dies are paper thin--they come in an envelope!
They work like any other die--just place on your die cutting machine's plate, put cardstock on top and roll it through. Here I am using the Big Shot die machine but it also works on a Cuttlebug.
And here's what you get! These dies are so intricate and beautiful!! Ready to add to your scrapbook page or card.

New stamps

Isn't this a beautiful color combination? And the stamp is one of the new ones we have in from the Hero Arts 2012 reveal. You must stop and see some of these!

This Saturday.....

Are you excited? We are only a day and a half away from the release!

Saturday at 12:30 is our big reveal....don't miss seeing all the new stamps.

Clean, Simple, Beautiful

Cute wrapping idea today. And it doesn't get much easier that this. We have quite a few papers with music so all you need is that + kraft paper + twine + a letter and you are done!
