Book Signing and Tear Bear Make 'n Take

On Friday, October 12, 2007 at the Scrap Shack in Mooresville North Carolina,I will be demonstrating how to make those adorable "Tear Bears". Please come and visit and learn to make these awe inspiring bears. Not only will you be able to impress your family and friends with your new found creativity, but you will also have the opportunity to browse and shop in one of the neatest scrapbooking stores in the country.

This will be my first "official" class, and I am so excited. Not only for the opportunity, but because I will also be debuting my new book "Sporty Scrappin'". I am so excited about this book, I can't even begin to describe in words what all this book means to me. This is a complete dream come true.

Please feel free to email me with questions or comments, and if you have questions about a particular technique you would like for me to explain, don't hesitate to ask.

Sporty Scrappin' - Snappy Snippets that Score!!!

I am so excited to announce my upcoming book...."Sporty Scrappin' ". This is my first title, and it is due out in October 2007. This book is totally awesome!!! There are over 3000 Sporty Saying from Archery to Wrestling. If you scrapbook any sports at all, you NEED this book. You can find this book at Bluegrass Publishing Inc.

New Things Happening So Fast....

Man - Things are happening in my life so fast, I haven't even been able to update my blog!!! As you can see by looking at the right hand side of the page, I am going to be having classes every week, beginning in July. I am so excited about this!!! I have always wanted to have some type of scrapbook business, but, I didn't really know what. I have prayed and prayed about this, and it just came to me. Things are just falling into place, so I know this is God's timing.

Right now, I am making examples to take pictures of for each class. Each class kit will be available for purchase if someone has a conflict with the dates of my classes.

As soon as I have more information regarding my classes, I will post it quickly.

I should have several samples up by tomorrow evening, so, if you are interested in anything you see, feel free to contact me.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and God Bless.

Today....

Just getting started on this blogging thing. I hope to update daily with scrapbooking information, as well as tips and anything else fun and useful.

I am by far not the authority on scrapbooking, however; I love to scrapbook. I have been scrapbooking for nearly 11 years now, and love it. Most of what I have learned is self taught. I have only been to one "real" class, ever, and had a ball. I will be attending my second class in a couple weekends.

So...stick with me on this, and we'll all go far in learning how to scrapbook.

Today...I will leave you with a favorite tool of mine...The Cuttlebug. I never thought I would want any type of die cutting machine, until I saw this little gadget in action. I fell in love immediately, and knew I had to have this. So...I purchased it with a couple dies. Now...I buy dies all the time, I absolutely love it. In fact...I am considering moving on to something a little bigger and better. For a beginning scrapbooker, I definitely recommend this little machine. It uses several different brand dies, so, you have more choices what you can make. It's not very expensive, and it's very portable.
