MAGAZINES!!

Several Somerset Magazines have appeared. Earlier in the month Somerset Studio appeared and there is a great article featuring Alice in Wonderland art. If you're working on your Alice ATC swaps you can get a lot of inspiration here.

Somerset Apprentice sold out so quickly we ordered a few more. Somerset Life is exceptional this month. Take Ten always has great cards you can make in 10 minutes or less. Stamper's Sampler sold out in less than 4 hours but with the accidental double shipment we got, we still have copies available. It's outstanding.
Don't forget to come to our FREE demo on Saturday. You'll love making the Easter card Lisa designed and you can sign up for classes too.



That's the news for now..... Until next post..... Happy Stampin'!

APRIL 2010 CLASSES

"Life Is Good" as they say and this round of "Class Is Good" classes are no exception! You'll want to sign up for all of them! I know! I say that about every class schedule, but I declare it seems that Lisa's classes just get better and better..... Some day we will be able to say we knew her when we could afford her! LOL Just kidding Lisa..... You're the best and we will always be able to say we KNOW you! XOXOX

MEMORIES PHOTO BOX - April 1 & 2: Such a popular class last month it bears repeating. If you missed out the first time you can take it this time...... You know you want to!

SWEETNESS - April 6, 8 & 9: Cards using stamps from Hero Arts, Memory Box, Penny Black & Impression Obsession. Saweeeeeet for any occasion!

HAVE A SEAT - April 13, 16 & 17: This class has been requested due to the unusual versatility of B Line Designs Chair Duo stamp. Very artsy with very clever techniques. You will need to bring your Duo stamp. If you don't have one, we will be making an order just for this class so let us know when you sign up if you need it.

DEMO DAY - APRIL 20 - Always a Day of Fun! FREE with a FREE Make-It-Take-It! New Class schedule for May will be available. Remember to mark your calendar cuz you don't ever want to miss this.....

TECHNIQUE POPPIES - April 20, 22 & 23: Funny name, great cards. Same stamp, different techniques. You will need to bring the stamp. As with Have a Seat, we will be making an order just for the class so let us know if you need it when you sign up.

GIRLS & GALS - April 27, 29 & 30: As the name suggests, you will create lovely cards using stamps of little girls and big gals. Stamps from B Line Designs and Character Construction.

Remember to bring your "class kit" with you when you take classes. If you need a list of suggested supplies give us a call. It is basic paper crafting tools such as a ruler, pencil, tapes & glues, black ink pad..... very basic. Most supplies are provided including all papers. A list of supplies used is always emailed along with a photo of the cards or project you will be creating. Bring what you have to help keep things moving, but never sweat it if you don't have it.
Thats it for now.... Until next post..... Happy Stampin'!

DEMO DAY RESCHEDULED!

The airport is closed and so are we! Can you believe we are having a snow blizzard on the 1st day of Spring????

Well, needless to say, Demo Day has been rescheduled for next Saturday, the 27th. Lisa has a fabulous Easter Card planned and so we will make it next week.

Lisa's April class schedule will be on display and ready for sign-ups on Tuesday so feel free to come on by next week when the weather has improved. The photo and details will be here on the blog by Tuesday.

Alice in Wonderland ATC swap materials are available for pick-up. Due to the snow we are extending the "turn-in" deadline to Wednesday, April 14th. We're really excited about that..... The Alice in Wonderland stamps and collage papers we got are really fun and you will want to check them out.

Til Tuesday..... Happy Stampin'! (Good day for it isn't it?)

I promised to bring you details of our upcoming Alice in Wonderland ATC Swap so here goes!

Beginning Saturday, March 20th (that's Demo Day for those of you who didn't remember) ATC swap packets will be available for pick up. The rules are: Create your ATC's using an Alice in Wonderland theme. You will make 12 ATCs.... 11 to swap and 1 to keep. You may use any technique or products you wish. You may make all the same or all different. Be creative and have fun. Your swaps must be returned to My Heart's Fancy by Saturday, April 10th.

We are running a special for all swap participants. You may order one 7 gypsies ATC frame at 20% OFF if you participate in the swap. Let us know when you turn in your swaps if you would like one ordered for you.

Check out the Alice in Wonderland stamp sets below from Tweety Jill. We will have them available on Demo Day if you wish to purchase one to use on your swaps. We will also have sheets of Alice in Wonderland ATC collage papers by Tweety Jill available by the sheet as well.

FRAME PROJECT

We thought you might like to see this.......



One day last week our friend Terri T stopped by to show us this really cool frame she made. She used Graphic 45 papers and Tim Holtz's Fragments. Her brother made the frame base, but you can find similar frames at most craft stores. She painted the frame black and used Glossy Accents to attach the fragments to the frame. Although it is an easy project, it took quite a while to arrange the fragments.

Here's a detail of one of the corners. Looks good - Don't you think?



Next post will include details about the Alice in Wonderland ATC swap! Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with.....

Until next post..... Happy Stampin'!
