WSW starts June 14th...

That's tomorrow!

Check it out here...

You never know who you'll see there...or what inspiration (instructions x3 ) will be free...get it?? It's a HINT!

And the countdown begins. Ranger U starts one week from today.
YIPPEE!!

Got a package yesterday from Maya Road...COOL NEW STUFF to play with...

A little stamp talk...I have completed about 20 samples with my stamps! My goal is to have all the samples completed by Monday, when I'll mail them off to Michelle so that they can be photographed for the catalog & the web-site. After that she prepares them for display @ the Art Gone Wild/Stampers Anonymous booth for CHA!

I'm thinking of a little contest...involving my stamps...still just thinking...We haven't had a giveaway in a bit...I'll get back to you on that...

Have a great weekend & don't forget to check out the 2 peas site tomorrow.

ps...I just might be prejudice...but...I LOVE MY STAMPS!!!
I can not wait to show you what I've done!...soon!

Today is THE DAY!

I feel like a 5 year old on Christmas Eve!

Michelle ( Mrs. Stampers Anonymous) called yesterday & said that MY STAMPS were shipped overnight & will arrive...

TODAY!!

OMG!!! There was not one wink of sleep here last night. I'm NOT kidding... I am beyond excited to start making CHA samples with them...phew................Will I show them to you??

NO WAY!!! SUFFER! ha!!

And if you think you're the only one being teased...I'm being tortured too. Caroline & Deb are in China now checking out all sorts of new Maya Road product. Do they tell us anything?? Oh sure...but they're hints only. Here's what they say...

WAIT 'til you see the new chipboard...
These new stamps are so cool...
Deb outdid herself with these new rub-ons...

See why I don't sleep...TORTURE...

So, what have I been working on? Nothing that I can show here. I finished 3 small projects that will be used on 2 peas for the WSW (Worldwide Stamping Week) celebration. It's the week of June 14th. The projects are done, that's the fun part...now the ugly part...writing up the supply lists & the instructions for the class.

I got some grungy samples done for the Advantus booth @ CHA...Can't show them either... It's NOT my fault...tim won't let me show you just yet...but I will say these are different & REALLY fun...

Then there's the Maya Road CHA projects. Can't show those guys either. But here's a tiny peek. I LOVE it when something is a perfect fit!




The stamp is by Catslife Press & it fit perfectly in a microchip from Maya Road. They were made for each other.

That's it for today. You know where I'll be...
Out on the drive waiting for...
THE BOX to arrive.

EDITED @ 10:30am...

THEY CAME!!!!!!!!!!!! YIPPEE & WOOHOO. They look wonderful. I've already inked each & every one!
Thank you Mr UPS for the quick delivery...

A peek, almost published and photo Friday

First...the peek...(come back Monday...I'll show the whole (box)!)

Here's a tiny piece of a project that's headed to NY with Maya Road for the stationary show next weekend. You can easily customize the trinkets metal flowers, by punching coordinating paper from your project, and then using it as a flower center.

And, you can also see some MR rub-ons on the fragments. Perfect for creating dimension & interest. The more I play with the fragments...the more I LOVE them. REALLY FUN stuff...

Second...almost published...

Last week I got an email from Jane Guthrie, who is the editor of Scrapbooking and Beyond and also Paper Creations. I will have a "project" published in either the winter issue of Scrapbooking & Beyond or Paper Creations. She hasn't decided just yet. YIPPEE!

So, the instructions are all typed up and the "project" has been sent and one thing is checked off the to-do list.

And today is photo Friday...

To finish up the newspaper interview, the photographer is coming this afternoon. Hopefully, he'll take photos of my studio or my art & NOT me. I HATE to have my picture taken.

***

Still on the to-do list...

YIKES...it's hard to believe that CHA summer is only about 2 months away. Assignments should be coming very soon from Maya Road. We did get a sneak peek of some new products......TOTALLY cool stuff you'll LOVE!

***

Also for CHA...art for Stampers Anonymous & some tim/Advantus grunge stuff. Got one grungey "thing" done already...REALLY cool, if I say so myself!! HA!

***

And then there's the ........OOPS...can't tell you about that. It's still too soon...BUT..........I'm SOOOOOOOO excited...

***

I'm dieing to get a few spare minutes to ink up Rachel's new stamps too. Got some ideas brewing...just need some time.......I haven't forgot you Rachel!
