Passport 2 Fun

Last weekend three of my fellow paper artists and myself hosted "Passpost 2 Fun" in Naples, Florida. We had 15 excited stampers that came to make 12 different projects.

Here are some of the gals having fun

Sharon's project. The top project formed a pyramid with a magnetic

closure.

Barb's project. somehow I'm missing one of the cards.

Karen's projects. The card with the chicken on it is actually

a open ended box, where you can insert dry chicken soup mix,

tea bags or even candy.

Sandy's projects. Everyone learned how to make a rosette flower.

The instructors:

Barb, Sharon,

Karen and Sandy

Decisions.........Decisions

Passport to Fun

Oh my, so much going on and not enough hours in the day to do everything. I wanted to share with you "Passport to Fun" , it was a stamping event that myself and three other wonderful instructors put on for the stamping community.

On October 9th; Barb Pelak, Sharon Roberts and Karen Olszta joined together and each of us created 3 projects and we offered classes to 20 stamping friends. Everyone had a GREAT time.

Below you can view the projects that were offerd.

Here are some samples of my project. We did "Serendipity", it is a random form of art. Each card turns out different and they all were beautiful.

The first one to arrive was Cathy Lockhart, she could not wait to get started. Let's not forget the food. Yes, we also offered food and drinks.

Here are the lucky winners of the four baskets. Maybe they will invited us over to play with all their new stuff.

This event will be offered again on January 22, 2011, if interested please e-mail me sjscleverideas@aol.com for all the info.

more Halloween Fun

The weather here in Florida is just starting to feel wonderful. The morning tempertures are in the 60's......finally. We had a long HOT summer. It is time to get out all the fall decorations to decorate the house. Fall is my favorite season. I just wish every year that I can get to go somewhere to see the fall foliage.

Just For Fun has released some great Halloween stamps. It has been so much fun designing with the new images. Click HERE to see the wonderful cards the design team has creating. I think you will agree they are all great.

Hocus-Pocus is a shaker card using Witch Wanda G3470 and the Crystal Ball G3471. A small hocus-pocus A3507 sign was added. Colored with Copic Markers. This would be a fun card to send to someone.

I love being witchy is a fun simple card..... flying witch small D3465, harvest moon E3487, I love being witchy A3508

Bubble Bubble Toil and Trouble G3477, hocus-pocus A3507. I used a black glitter pen to use on the vapors coming from the cauldron and red and orange glitter pen on the flames. The picture does not show the sparkle. Colored with Copic Markers.

Just a reminder.... there is a SALE going on at Just For Fun. It is being offered to the blog readers. Code to use is SFS2010(caps must be used to work), go to the new arrivals tab to view.

Please leave a comment. I would love to know what you think.

Happy Creating,

Sandy

Halloween Fun

Halloween is one of my two favorite holidays.......of course Christmas is the other. I have soooooo many halloween stamps but I always need to add another. Maybe these will become part of your collection.

Using Distress inks from Ranger inks I created some wonderful background papers. These were perfect for making into halloween cards. Well I guess they are not really cards, maybe they should be called creations.

This one is my favorite. Let me know what you think. I would love to read some comments.

This is a great time to add to your Halloween stamp collection. Just For Fun® is having a Spooktacular Fall Special now thru October 31st. You will receive 15% off your total purchase using the coupon code SFS2010(must be in all caps to work)

The design team has been busy designing with all the new images....... stop by each members site to see what they have created.
