Santa Clara Scrapbook Expo Recap

Guess who was at the Scrapbook Expo in Santa Clara this past weekend?????  ME!!!!!

I was so excited to partner with fellow consultant Kristina Baldwin to do this show!  Let me tell you all about it!

Thursday we spent the day setting up and getting our booth to look like this:

Then we got to work!
Myself, Kristina, Deanna and Denise (Not pictured: Deb)

We had a fabulous time meeting new faces, seeing friends from all over, doing make & takes with hundreds and serving our fabulous customers!  


I LOVED being at Expo this weekend, and especially enjoyed meeting new friends who live near me!  I look forward to seeing my Expo friends SOON!

Check out the awesome make & take that Kristina designed!  I love the 3- color stamping that we did using sponge daubers.  The paper fundamentals, dots and sparkles and shimmer trim allowed each person to make theirs unique.  


I created a little gift bag with Artiste to show how you could attach the tag to a gift bag :)


And then I created this card to show how you could even put a tag on a card.  
Supplies used:
Blossom Paper Pack
Zoe Paper Pack
Happy Everything Stamp Set

Flamingo Dots

CTMH- Washi Tape Card

Do you WASHI???   Washi Tape is one of the new and super trendy products being used.  I'm not afraid to jump on the bandwagon :)  CTMH now has a Slate Polka-Dot Washi Tape (and I HOPE there are lots more to come!!!)  I also have picked up a couple others at Michaels recently. This weeks Color My Heart Color Dare is JUNIPER.  I decided to use Juniper as the accent color for my card today. I used the black banner stamp set from Artiste Kudos , CTMH's Slate Washi Tape , CTMH's Silver Shimmer Trim and a black arrow washi tape.  The sentiment is from Artiste Birthday , stamped in Juniper, then popped on foam tape. A simple card like this, called for some dressing up of the inside too.  I stamped Happy Birthday from Perfect Fit Birthday and added some Slate Washi Tape to the bottom. Head over to Color My Heart to check out the other color dare entries :)

CTMH-- September Stamp of the Month- Fall Favori

Welcome to the Close To My Heart Stamp of the Month Blog Hop for September 2012, featuring Fall Favorites   All artwork on the hop will feature Fall Favorites!  This is a set of 11 stamps and it's really making me want FALL---- NOW!!!  How cute is this set!?  If you have come here from  Susan's Blog y ou are on the right path. For my card today, I used the new Clementine paper pack, which is so versatile!  I cut the tag from Art Philosophy and stamped Fall Favorites in Brown Staz-on ink, then colored the pumpkin and leaves with my new markers.  I found that they don't blend and shade terribly well on Kraft cardstock- but the color showed up.  I added some of my favorite Burlap Ribbon to the card :) Do you think I like pumpkin pie???  Just a little bit ;) The September Stamp of the Month- Fall Favorites is available September 1-30th.  With any $50 purchase, this set is yours for $5....
