STAMPAWAY IN CINCINNATI IS JUST 5 WEEK AWAY!

I am really getting excited about Stampaway.  As many of you already know I will be teaching Stampscapes at Marco's Paper in Centerville, Ohio during Stampaway week July 31, 2012.  There will be two classes 9:30 to 12:30 and 3:00 to 6:00.  I hope if you are in the area you will try to take my class.  This will be my first time teaching at Marco's and I hope it will be a success, but I can not do it without your help so please sign up by contacting Karen at 1-937-433-7030 or visit there website at http://www.marcopaper.com/.  Marco's has a great selection of classes available during the week before and after Stampaway.
 
I have also started designing my trades for Cincinnati.  So if you are planning on attending the convention look for me in the line on Friday night and Saturday morning.  I would love to trade with you.  What is a trade you say?  Well it can be what every you would like to stamp and trade.  Most people trade artist trading cards but mine always seem to be a little larger than the standard card.  I have put together a collection of different things to come up with my design now I have to produce them.  I will try to make 75 and I hope to have one to show you very soon.

I checked the Stampaway website yesterday and there are still some classes available at  http://www.stampawayusa.com/home/sa_classes.html.  We only get this great convention once a year so please if you can make plans to attend.  Even if you are not taking classes this is the best rubber stamping shopping experience you will ever have.  See you at Stampaway!

STAMPAWAY WEEK AT MARCO'S PAPER JUST GOT A NEW TEACHER

I am so happy to announce I will be teaching a Stampscapes class at Marco's Papers in Centerville, Ohio July 31, 2012 during Stampaway week.  Marco's Paper is about 35 miles north of Sharonville (which is right outside of Cincinnati) where the Stampaway USA convention is being held.   Last year I wrote a post Stampaway blog in which I made the comment that I would like to teach at Stampaway.  Well this is even better because Marco's is one of my favorite stores, and I am so honored to have this opportunity to teach a class during their Stampaway celebration.   In fact I will be kicking off Stampaway week for Marco's.  If we fill up one class I may be teaching a second one on the same day.  Please contact Marco's Paper if you are interested in taking this class.  Help me fill two classes and make this event a great success.

See you at Marco's Paper in Centerville, Ohio July 31.

Marco's will also be carrying both of my DVD's

CARDS WITH A VIEW April 22, 2012 Class

This class was inspired by my students requests for window cards and a waterfall card so I have tried to deliver a variety which we will be doing April 22, 2012 at the Stables Community Center in Sevierville, TN.  I have used Spellbinders dies, Heartfelt Creations stamps, Art Gone Wild stamps and template and To Much Fun Rubber Stamps window stamp.  I am still working on the 4th card which will also be a window card.

If you would like to join us in this class please visit my website at  http://www.astampineveryhand.com/ where you can pay using your paypal account or go to our contact section to find out how to pay by check.

Here are three of the cards we are doing in this class.  The Flower Soft card is much prettier in person and the waterfall card has a different image on each panel on the front of the card.
