Keepin Up & Keepin it Real

So much is going on lately!

Keepin Up is CRAZY, but Keepin it Real is EASY!

I have recently resigned from a design team, joined a new design team, started selling my products in two stores, and applied to teach at a new location.

I am also in the process of adding new products to my store.  You can look for more products from The Rubber Cafe, New mini books from Genuinely Jane Studios, More Faber Castell goodies, and of course the new Tim Holtz fun stuff.  I will also have more Maya Road, Canvas Corp, Melissa Frances, Pink Paislee and Heidi Swapp.

But I also wanted to let you know where you can find me since I have been moving around and making changes.

So here is a quick list as to where I am CURRENTLY..

 

You can also still find me at the Kenosha Public Museum, Strawberry Creek Country Club, Kenosha Hobby Lobby, and my home studio.  I am also applying to teach in other locations and I still have my products for sale in two locations in my area.  Find my home-made goodies at  A Vintage Vault in Kenosha and at Benson’s Corner in Bristol.

Give A Way, While I’m Away~

Since I will be gone for a few days working at the Scrapbook Expo in St. Charles, Illinois I thought I should leave behind a GIVE-A-WAY or Blog Candy.

I also think it only makes sense that since I am working in THE RUBBER CAFE booth, that I give away some of their awesome products.  Here are 3 of my Favorite things from The Rubber Cafe.

Milwaukee Scrapbook Expo was “Sheer” AWESOME!

Happy Sunday… I can’t believe I am already working on my May & June Class schedule.  What happened to the month of March & April?  I feel like this year is just flying by.

Did you get a chance to visit the Scrapbook Expo?  If you did go I hope you stopped by The Rubber Cafe booth.  The booth was full of “teach & take” excitement, Demo’s by Melissa & Michele, and great show specials.  Thank you to my local friends that stopped by to say hi and check out the Rubber Cafe booth.  I was really excited to meet my Design Team member Maya!  I was also excited to hang out with some new friends that I met during our “teach & take” cards this weekend.  I had a great time hanging with the Owner of The Rubber Cafe Melissa Forsyth and her wonderful friend & Marketing Director  Michele Ciola from Creative Mayhem.  I learned so much from them in just 3 days (long days)  but fun days. I hope to work with them again in the future.   I am even happier that I was able to stock a few of my shelves with new products from The Rubber Cafe.  Yep.. I will finally be selling ” The Rubber Cafe” products.  I will also be teaching a few classes using all of their products.  The new classes will start in May and these classes will only be available in my studio.  If you are interested in more info regarding these classes specifically then message me ASAP since I will have a limit on class size.


The Rubber what?  The Rubber Cafe!  Their  products are amazing!   Their stamps are deeply etched red rubber and are made right here in the good old USA…San Diego  California to be exact.  The Rubber Cafe also has a line of glitter, flock, puffie paint, and a tacky drying glue called Scrap happy Sheer Glue  that works so well when making all those hand-made flowers, faux ribbon, glue dots, glitter paper and so much more..  take a class with me to learn more.
