The Great Canadian Scrapbook Carnival!!!

I so wish that I could be there with the gals in Edmonton & Calgary!!

You ladies are going to have a blast!!! And if you haven't heard of this event or signed up yet PLEASE check out this LINK for more information!!!

This awesome event put on by Canadian Scrapbooker takes place in Calgary Sept 23-24th, 2011 and again in Edmonton Oct 1st-2nd, 2011.

There's an awesome Creative Marketplace where you can walk around & see the latest and greatest crafting products, you can take part in some amazing classes taught by awesome Canadian Scrapbooker teachers and have a fun time working on your projects during the Open Crop time OR you can have fun decorating & eating cupcakes because Jackie's mom has been busy baking over 350 cupcakes!! How fun is that??

I KNOW that you won't be disappointed!!!

So, if you live near either of these places and want to get away to an incredible scrapbooking experience then make sure to check this one out! You'll love it!

Got Sketch #2 and a great weekend event!

So Club Got Sketch sketch #2 went live yesterday and I love it! Valerie Salmon does an awesome job with these sketches. This sketch had 9 photos!

Here's my take on the sketch. (sorry I cannot share the sketch with you) I was actually a bit worried to do a two-pager because it's been a while but this was a good challenge for me and I'm happy with my layout.

Supplies used: Core'dinations cardstock, Cuttleubug embossing folder, Imaginisce (patterned papers, i-rock tool to adhere Glam Rocks), Cricut machine and Birthday Bash cartridge, Paper Trunk (Black alpha letter stickers)

There's still time to play along & I'd love for you to join in on the fun as these sketches are just fabulous! Click HERE for more info. And the Got Sketch contributor team are having a wonderful time creating from these. I love all the different interpretations.

Do you live in the lower mainland area and are you looking for something to do this coming weekend? Then come to The Great Canadian Scrapbook Carnival in Abbotsford, BC April 1st & 2nd. There's a ton of exciting things to see and great classes to participate in as well.

Have a great day!

March 1st Challenge

It's that time of the month again!!! Hard to believe ... but it's true. Imaginisce is posting their March 1st challenge today.

It's a sketch challenge but with a twist.

You must use:

• 3 different patterned papers
• 3 different embellishments
• 3 different colors

I created 2 cards from this challenge.

So ... are you ready to play?? Then make sure to head on over to the Imaginisce blog to check out all of the details and post your entry there on that post. Can't wait to see what you come up with!

So, this past weekend I was over on Vancouver Island, in Victoria, at the Great Canadian Scrapbook Carnival. I had a great time with my Canadian Scrapbook buddies (Katharina and Christy) and had a wonderful time teaching my classes. The ladies there were just super! Thanks so much everyone! I'll post some pictures a little bit later this week after I get them uploaded.

We're also looking forward to our next show in Abbotsford later on in April. So if you live around that area please make sure to stop by & check out the vendors plus sign up for some classes. We'd love to have you join us during that weekend!

Thanks again to my friend, Cathy, of The Steam Trunk. I've been thrilled to be using some of her products in my classes. If you haven't check out her online store YOU MUST! She has a wide variety of product from the most darling charms, buttons, jewelry to a fabulous variety of ribbons & trims. My favorite, of course, is the wonderful selections of twine. Thanks again Cathy .... I truly appreciate it!!

Well, I hope that you had a great weekend and this is a beginning of wonderful week.
