Tamarra's Stamping Spot

STAMP CAMP reminder and new date too!

Since I have had quite a few of you tell me that you really want to come to STAMP CAMP but just can't make it this Friday for one reason or another I have decided to hold a repeat of STAMP CAMP next Friday as well. So if you can't make it on September 18th, you can now begin RSVP'ing for September 25. The cost and time will remain the same (7:30 pm and $15 per person). If you choose to pay for your camp via Paypal please mark in the memo box which day you would like. And in case you missed what we are doing...... Here is a picture.....

There are chocolates in the Turkey and candy corn in the candy corn (I know how original...LOL)

Don't forget to include the date you will attend when paying and look for the a step by step tutorial for sale on this class later this week.

Thanks for stopping by! ~Tamarra

2am and still stamping...

Last night it took me quite a while to actually get sleepy. So I decided to do a scrapbook page for a group challenge. I don't have to much fall stamps left after the retiring of the lastcatalog. So I worked with the 1 set I have. That is one of the stipulations of the challenge is that everything has to be current Stuff from Stampin' Up!. Hope you like it.

As usual everything is from Stampin' Up! unless other wise noted.

More pages.......

A few of you asked where it is that I get my ideas from. Usually they come from other layouts that I see and like so I sketch out the layout to use later. Others come out of my head, usually while I am working on something else I will get an idea, but isn't that how it usually works. When you don't have time for something is when it comes to you. And the funny thing is some times the idea comes from something I saw on a card. So basically that is where I get them. I have also used page maps from website's but I tend to change them once I get going because they don't work with what I haven in my head at the time. Not a very exciting answer but there it is....LOL

Anyway, here are a few more layouts from October and November Classes.

pages, Pages and more PAGES!!!!

Starting today and over the next few days I will be posting the pages we did/or will be doing for October's Scrapbook pages depending on your club date.

Ok So since I told you that part of why I was missing was because of my Scrapbook Club that I totally hadn't pre-paired for besides purchasing card stock I thought you might like to see some of the pages. Since I have more then one scrapbook group they each basically do the same pages. My Big Bear group meets every other month now and they do 10, 12x12 2 page layouts. My other club range from 6 a month to 2 a month. So they get the same basic pages but obliviously not all of them. Basically I choose my favorites and those are the 2 that each group does then my next 2 and then my next 2. Some of the ladies that scrapbook with me in my clubs have been with me for nearly 7 years now. So we have basically the same scrapbooks. WOW!! That sounds like such a long time ago but it certainly doesn't feel like that long ago. Anyway so on to the pages....

As usual all the items used are from Stampin' Up! unless other wise noted....... 

Stamp Sets: Summer By the Sea

Card Stock: Not Quite Navy, Garden Green, Creamy Carmel and Naturals Ivory

Inks: Basic Black

Accessories: Blender Pens, Watercolor Pencils and Light Brown wide grosgrain. Since I was asked at club how I made the large circle and truth is... I used a Pyrex mixing bowl. 

and this is side two.

 

This is the matching layout.

Stamp sets: Give Thanks and Headline Alphabet

Card Stock: Old Olive, Real Red, Whisper White and Summer Picnic DSP

Inks: Basic Black, Old Olive, Real Red, Sahara Sand, and Always Artichoke.
