The Red Haired Stamper

Just Delightful!

I am planning a class with my buddy and side line demo Alison using the SAB scrapbooking kit Just Delightful. Had fun today putting some of the card ideas together. A Bitty Book  will be an option in the class also. Here is a sneak peek at the cards we will be making.

The class will include the Just Delightful Kit (or bring your own) and there will be loads of the kit left over afterward for you to get creative at home.

Click here to see my class list for January February and March using the drop down date menu.

Forgive me if my posts are sporadic over the next month...we are just getting into the demolition part of kitchen, bath and beyond remodeling....I came home today and my oak floor was GONE! But the black slate that will be coming soon is going to be too cool! Maybe I should start a reno blog! LOL

Thanks for looking! If you are in the Vancouver area be sure to sign up for my e-mails!

I love my hostesses!

So this year my hostesses and club members receive a cool Inventory list with colour charts to keep track of all their Stampin' Up! supplies. Once they take inventory they just have to pop this in their bag when they come to an event and  they know exactly what they need! They love this little book! If you live in Canada and would like to recieve one contact me for more details! Here are some sample pages. There are blank pages at the back to list stamp sets too!

Art for you!

What a crazy week...but I managed to upload some cards I received in swaps recently to the photo album section. There will be more to come! I have listed the artist's name where available. Should you card be here and no name please let me know or if you wish your card to be removed.

I'll be back with more art soon!

See You next Week!

I am going away for a few days.  Be sure to check back next week and check out my gallery for LOTS of new uploads!

In the meantime, for a little entertainment you can check out my dog's blog..LOL..she wanted to join the cyber world.

Happy Stamping!

Love Toes

My girlfriend's little girl, Emma, was over to visit the other day. Auntie Susie (me) always has to Tattoo her when she comes...so as I had a new "froggie" set it was all about frogs this time. She says we are stampin' buddies. LOL

She was soooo happy with it all! Oh...there was also a belly frog but we didn't take pics of that one. LOL

On another note...I am feeling kinda jumpy lately and have no idea why.....

Scrap 2007!

Had my first class of the year on Saturday. We did Christmas pages. Colleen and her MIL Bernice came and both worked on their layouts and completed two pages.Here is what they came up with based on my basic design for them. I used the old Christmas Simply Scrapping set as it was still hanging around. Bernice loved it so much she ordered the new Set in the catalogue!

This is Colleen's layout. Both ladies had  loads of pictures they needed to include so we played a lot with the position of the pictures. The little tags at the edge were fun... Colleen cut out each of the heads, layered them onto the white tag and then onto the red/blue background layer.

This is Bernice's layout. Some of the picture's are the same as they spent Christmas together LOL!

Using the Simply Scrappin' accents made this so easy to do! Gotta love these kits!

I'll be teaching the Scrapbooking class on the second Saturday of every month. Sign up for my e-mails above in the top left hand corner for all my info! We would love to have you visit!

Both girls purchased a second kit and last night I received an e-mail with the second layouts completed..and this is what they got done at home on their own. I am not sure if they will show in the right order...so lets hope so!

Here are Colleen's New  Year pages.

And Bernice's did more Christmas Pages... 

Thanks for stopping by! Sue

Big and Small - I love them all!

After a hectic day of running from one appointment to another, and having to drive all over to do that in the miserable pouring rain, I thought I would cheer myself up with a challenge..and this is one I found on SCS. The Tuesday Colour challenge...love the clean look of these colours (Cool Caribbean, black and white.) The ribbon is the beautiful velvet ribbon from the Flirty collection in the new mini catalogue. Using the Big Pieces set from the new Mini and the Little Pieces set from the Main Catalogue this is what I came up with. What do you think? Quick and easy...just want I needed tonight! :-) I love that the two sets go together, they are so easy to use! The greeting is from the Riveting Hostess set.

Leave a note if you visit...sometimes I wonder who is really out there LOL!
