Easter Scrapbook Pages!

It's been ages since I've had the chance to do any scrapbooking! I put these pages together for a class I'm doing this weekend. 
I made the Easter basket using the new Oval framelits. The base of the basket is the largest scallop edged oval cut in half. Then I made the handle by punching ovals out of Designer Series Paper using the Extra Large Oval punch.  I stamped the letters in Basic Gray using my favorite alphabet set - Morning Post. And I stamped the little bunnies (that are hard to see on this photo!) in Pool Party using the single stamp, Ears To You (so cute!)
Have a wonderful week! Brenda

Get your Masters in Stamping!

Have you been crafting for a while now? If so you might really enjoy this monthly Master class!

I come up with slower, more "steppy" projects like this that would intimidate many people but are PERFECT if you have been around the block a few times and like a challenge!

We have class tomorrow, Thursday, at 9 a.m. or Monday at 6:30 p.m. Please let me know if you'd like to know more about it!

Hope you're having a great day - Brenda

When the rain is done...

I don't know about you but I am REALLY looking forward to Spring! I love this hopeful little wellington boot card - but, I have to say, it reminds me of England more than Colorado - a snow boot, or some BOGS would be more appropriate here!

Isn't it cute though? It's a swap card I received at leadership - but I gave the original away so I don't know who designed it, please let me know if you do and I'll credit her! We made this same card at one of my classes. Classes are a fun option if you want to just come along, pay a flat fee and leave with some finished cards! Please let me know if that's something you might be interested in.

I hope you're having a great start to your week, Brenda

Bayfield's Bring It To The Table!

I'm excited to share this short video over at Bayfield's Bring It To The Table with you! 

Pedro and Junior feature members of the Bayfield community on their YouTube site and interview them about local opportunities, products and services. It really was a blast and I got to pretend I was a celebrity for a few minutes - I'm all ready for Oprah now!
The 'Set'
They were great at making me feel comfortable and appeared genuinely interested and excited about what I am offering here in Bayfield! I don't have many men stamping with me so it was great to get their perspective - I even got Junior to stamp a card on camera using the Dude, You're Welcome kit - he did a great job - I'm dying to hear what his wife thought of it...
Samples for the set
It's kind of interesting how you can live in a small town like I do and still not really know what your neighbors do, or what fun activities are available. I spent a little time looking through all their videos and was impressed to see all that's going on, some of things I knew about, but there were others that I had no idea! I'm looking forward to bumping into some of these people in the grocery store now. One thing about living here is you know you definitely WILL bump into everybody sooner or later...
Lights! Cameras! Action!
So, thanks Pedro & Junior! Look forward to more videos on your site!
