Hi Everyone,

We have been busy unpacking boxes of new products and a huge reorder of Copic Markers.  The new Memory Box dies have arrived and I couldn't resist playing, photos below.  I added 4 times in the next few days that I will be available to run thru a Silhouette demo for you if you are thinking about getting one of these amazing machines.  I personally love the fact that you do not have to buy expensive cartridges to get the most from this machine,  just use the fonts on your computer.   
  
 Saturday October 20th 

Demo Day 11-4 PM 

(Demo Day Rewind Sunday October 21st 12-5)
Join us for 14 great projects all just $2 each. We will have a variety of cards and layouts for you to create. We do the cutting and you do the gluing. Just drop in anytime after 11:00 and create as many Demos you want. We provide glue sticks so if you prefer tape, please bring a labeled tape runner. We will have kits available for all the demos so you can even make these at home. 


If you complete 6 demos, you will receive a coupon for 10% off your regular priced purchases for the day (not including special orders or other sale special offers).

 

Lisa Halstead has another fun pillow box for you.  Fill it with candy corns for a Halloween treat.
Vanessa has made a fun apple filled card for you.


Tracy couldn't resist using this cute Santa gift card holder stamp and adding a bit of glitter and  embossing powder.












 

 

 

 

 

 

 





Since we are heading into the Fall season, Cindy will be creating a lovely Autumn-colored card.  Her card uses a color combo that she loves for Fall - teal, rust, brown, and off-white.

I just wanted to let you know that we received a large Copic marker order today.  Also, we just received some new Gothic Window dies from Memory Box.  I can't wait to play with these and Elizabeth Crafts glitter. 

 

I opened up my new Anniversary set of Copic markers tonight and just had to color one of these new Memory Box Dies. I love the Rose Window and I paired it with Elizabeth crafts glitter. Maybe I should do a class?

 

 

 

The fun Tri-Fold stamps from Art Impressions are back in stock.

  
 

 We have lots of inks, embossing powders and glitters in stock right now.

New Copic Classes Coming to PhotoScraps!

Lisa is finalizing two new classes for the Copic line-up at PhotoScraps! Stay tuned. These classes will be showing up on the November/December calendar.

 

The Copic Spotlight classes will be focused on specific techniques to take your color work to new levels. Here's what she has planned:

Copic Spotlight: Copic and Colored Pencil Coloring without Lines 

Copic Spotlight: Coloring and Creating Reflections

Copic Spotlight: Copic and Colored Pencil. Coloring without lines and adding dimension to your work.

 

This class will focus on coloring images without "stamped" lines to create three dimensional effects. We will also cover colored pencil techniques and how using them together with Copics add advanced dimension to your work. We will walk through a coloring and detail process that will be completed in class with a sample image to take home for practice. Full-color handouts provided. Here's a sample image of what you will create.

Hi Everyone,
 
It occured to me that our customers are often shy about sharing their creations with us.  When I was talking to Lorie about some of the cool things she makes, she mentioned her blog and I just had to get her permisson to share.  If you have a crafty blog that you think others would like to see, please let me know at [email protected].
 
Here is a recent blog post from Lorie.
 
A Wintery Feel 

Happy Hellos Everyone: 
I hope you're having one terrific Tuesday. Yesterday was such a beautiful. Hopefully, today will promise to be more of the same. Well, I hope you're ready because as promised, I have another wonderful {okay...I'm a little bias} altered cigar box to share with you. I had a strong tie to this box instantly. I'm not sure whether it was the cool colors or the theme, but I know it will be difficult for me to let this one go. 
When I created this box, I totally had cooler weather in mind. I love the feel of cool autumn days and cooler wintery evenings. If I were to keep this altered box, I would probably store hot cocoa and/or gourmet tea packets or perhaps even cool mint candies to share. 
Take a look and be sure to share your thoughts.

 



                 
I often select a wintery theme over a Christmas theme just because the wintery theme will run well over into the new year. In addition, I've come to learn everyone does not celebrate Christmas. Don't you just love the snowman's scraf? Everything appears to have blended perfectly... even the various patterns and the silver snowflakes.

 I thought the Tim Holtz's foundation worked well with this theme. 

The original banding worked well with the color theme. I'm not certain whether you noticed the word in the center of the lid, but it reads 'Authentique.' I never thought to use the word printed at the bottom of the DP, but I will from now on. It wasn't my intention to advertise the brand name as it was to identify this altered box as being one of a kind.
  This paper is black and white with a small hint of green. I didn't want to leave it at that, so I decided to distress the papers with one of the colors of winter.  Here, you're able to see the handle I created using buttons.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
Distressing the edges just provides a cleaner look for a finish project.   Full inside view

I always make sure to stamp all my projects. Do you?

The die I used is from the Tim Holtz's collection.
I hope you like this altered box and perhaps you'll consider creating one of your own. As always, thanks for stopping by The Peddler's Gallery and come back real soon--like tomorrow ;)
