Copic Class Nov. 19th

Trina here with the design team. I am promoting my Copic class in this blog post. When you read this post I will be in NYC with my son's high school band. The Seneca East Tiger Pride Band was selected to play in a 9/11 Tribute and march in the Veteran's Day Parade.

Now on to my class, the beginner class starts at 10 am and you learn about the Copics and basic coloring techniques. The advance class starts at 11 am and you get to do a small project to duplicate when you get home. This month the advance class will be doing a tea light/votive Christmas card, with of course Marci our cute little La La's that Susie is always posting about. I must admit I am a little addicted to them too!

So sign up for the classes Nov. 19,   Beginner $10 at 10 am  and Advanced $15 at 11 am.

Sizzix Note Card Holder

Hey, Erin here for my Design Team tuesday post!  Last week when I explained how to apply the paper to the die cut box, I was doing it the super hard way, lol. So I found out that you should apply the paper to the chipboard (both sides if you want the inside decorated) then place the chipboard on the die with the paper you want showing on the outside facing down.  Way easier!!!!  I used Modge Podge, it spreads easily with a Perfect Pearls brush and dries quickly.

So today's project is the note card holder die from Sizzix.  I covered both sides with Simple Stories paper, the 25 Days of Christmas collection, front panel mat and tag from them also.  Available now at Scrap Happy. I know it's crazy to be doing Christmas stuff in Septemeber, but I just couldn't resist the paper! The silver panel on the front is Quick Cut brand vinyl that I ran through the Big Shot with a Tim Holtz fades texture.  Yes you can emboss vinyl!  I love the look it has, like a tin ceiling panel.  Used some Stickles on the holly at the bottom of the tag and some pop dots to make the tag stand out.  Some stuff I already had in my stash, like the inside cardstock, ribbon, eyelet, number stickers, clothespin (ive seen these at the store too :)  The tabs I cut on my Cricut from the Fabulous finds cartridges

Sideview: its about 1/2"thick, and inside cards are 3.5x5"

I added an acordian fold binding at the bottom of the inside panels so it could be a mini book, Christmas shopping reciept holder, gift card holder, or anything else holder, lol.

Each one of the inside panels has a little cut out decoration from the 6x6 pad of paper Simple Stories: 25 days of Christmas collection.

New Christmas/Fall Memory Box in store!

 It is still only July, but our Christmas, Winter, Fall, Thanksgiving, and Halloween lines are rolling in.  Right now our Memory Box is in store and ready for your consumption and they are simply delicious. 

 If you want any you must hurry in, Susie is taking them with her next week when she goes to Cincy for a convention and she may just come home empty handed because this season's line WILL get eaten up!!  You don't want to wait forever to start your Christmas cards, or Halloween party invites!  Sharon has already had time to use the above pictured stamp and matching poinsettia die.  Some copics, some Stickles,  some flat-back pearls and love come together to make this gorgeous creation!!!!!
