Hello 2012

Hey there Bloggers!  Did you miss me? ;)
Sorry for the tardiness, but I'm back and raring to go! I've decided that 2012 is the year for taking the bull by the horns!!  So I invite you to join me for the ride!
So, the news so far for 2012...
Shop for Sale.  Yep, just in case you hadn't already heard, Fiona has put the shop (Stamp and Scrapbook Madness) up for sale.  Her husband, Justin, has been given a promotion at his work, unfortunately this involves them moving to Perth. So, if you know of someone that has always dreamed of owning a fabulous and successful Scrapbook shop....complete with kooky staff ;) (I keep telling Fiona that she needs to put a caveat in the sale agreement that I am included (like the stock and the racking ;)
Frankly I'm trying not to think about it too hard.

Meanwhile, it's business as usual at the shop.  Fiona keeps ordering more and more stock like a crazy person (which we love) and is still constantly sourcing new stock and suppliers (which we also love).  She's abandoning me next week to go to CHA so I'm sure she'll come back with lots of goodies that I will covet ;)
(and a signed copy of Compendium of Curiosities 2 for my Birthday if she knows what's good for her ;)

I have 4 classes this schedule - Paradise Cards, Jumbo Stamps Cards, Birthday Book and the upcoming Kaisercraft paper pad class.
Here's some pics:








    
 











I've also spent half the day updating the work blog, so if you haven't checked it out yet, the link is here

Anyway, I'm off to read Dr Seuss and brace myself for tomorrow (I've got a BIG day at work tomorrow)
Thanks for dropping by,
Barbara

Tim's Tags

Hey there Bloggers!
Well I've been super busy prepping for our all day class tomorrow - Tim's Tags. 
It is our emulation of Tim Holtz's 12 tags of Christmas.  We decided that there was no way that we would get 12 tags done in one day, so we downsized to 8.  Fiona and I are both teaching  - we will be teaching 4 each.  I'll be starting the day off with my 4 tags

 
 
It's hard to see with the dodgy pic - I shall remember to take some photos tomorrow of them individually.  I've used a heap of different dies and products - it took me over an hour just to write the supplies list for them! 
Here are Fiona's - yes there are only 3 pictured here - we had to wait for ages for the Alcohol Inks that she is using on her 4th card to arrive.
 Anyway, Im off to make a treat for the ladies tomorrow,
Have a good night,
B
