New Challenges in the Forum

It appears that over recent months the Stamp Craft forum has become very
quiet and very slow.

I have been busy making changes to the forum and have even added in some new challenges. New prompts have been added to the Book of Me also. Come and have some fun and be inspired. Who knows what you might win along the way.

Some new fun games will be happening in the upcoming weeks too. So watch this space.

So come on over the Stamp Craft forum and join in all the fun.

Here is a sneak of one of the new challenges called Colour Combos.

Shadow Box Class

I am extremely excited to announced that I will be teaching my very first class on the evening of Wednesday 22 July 2009.

Check out the sneak peak below.



If you would like to book in contact Karen :)

Monday 18th May - Little Monsters


Hi everyone! This is the layout that we will be doing on Monday night using the really cute Nightlight range from October Afternoon. You will need 2 5x7 inch photos, as well as a very sharp pencil like a pacer pencil, along with the general toolkit as always. There are the tools at the shop to be used, but this layout will require fairly exact and precise cutting, so if you prefer a particular one, you'll need to bring your own. :) Hope to see you there!

Monday 16th March - Dimensional Deistressing with Mr Campy!

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to put up the details for the next class. We'll be using some of the Cosmo Cricket Mr Campy line, which you can see here:

http://www.qbaroo.com/cosmocricket/main.cfm?categoryoid=1&productoid=29

You'll need to bring along 5 4x4 cicular photos - you could bring along some 6x4 photos and trim them down on the night as well.
If you could also bring along your toolkit (trimmer, scissors, craft knife, pencils, rulers), a brown inkpad (I used pinecone versacube) and your preferred distressing tool.
For adhesives, you will need regular double sided tape, some acid free glue (helmars acid free or tombow monon would be fine) and some pop dots or magic mount. Actually, quite a few of those pop dots. :)

The layout will be in the shop as of Tuesday some time, so you can go check it out then!

See you next monday!
