Ancestors Design Sheet

I’m listing the last few design sheets left after the liquidation sale on eBay in the hopes of selling off the last of my remaining rubberstamps in big lots vs. piece mealing them out. So my arty friends… Here is the eBay listing if you are interested in bidding:

over and sorta done…

circle craft is officially over… I tried to keep posting each day, but exhaustion quickly took over LOL! so, here is a quick recap:

  • 6 days and over 60+ hours of demoing, standing and having fun!
  • sold out of many things by day 4… sold out of more by day 5!
  • friends sue, gen and becky make the event and show waaaaaaaaaaay more fun!
  • totally and utterly exhausted!

ok… that is about all my befuddled and migraine plagued brain can handle at the moment. be back with a more comprehensive, or at least more interesting, post in a day or too. right now, i must try to get bck into the swing of things at work.

ciao and thanks for shopping and visiting us at circle craft! we’ll see you in 2009…

day 2…

day 1 was amazing… chaotic. crazy. so many people we could barely see across the aisles! a great and exhausting day.

day 2… calmer. easier. we could actually chat with customers. another good day at circle craft.

now, i’m going to process credit card transactions, scan in some greeting card samples, then hit the sack. watch for a PDF file link in a follow-up post shortly with the samples. nighty night!

Sneak Peek No. 2

hello friends!

today’s post features another sneak peek for you circle craft shoppers…  i’ve been busy creating custom mini-book kits with a variety of yummy papers, tranparent overlays and embellishments. there has been lots and lots of cutting in my studio this week!

the first kit is a ‘girly’ based kit that would be lovely for girls from age newborn to adult. the colour palette is based on soft pinks, sage greens, pale yellow and white accents. this kit contains over 20 pieces of ’stuff’ including paper, overlays, brads, felties and labels. i love the feminine colour combination and really love that it can be used in either our see-throughs 6×6 clear books or in my favorite maya road 6×6 binder album. the kit contains only the papers and embellishments so that YOU can choose which type of book you want to make – opaque or clear, the choice is yours. i love that!

here is a sneak peek at the type of papers and embellishments you can expect in this kit… the example below was done for my friend’s newborn daughter, but you could take the exact same materials and do a book, or series of cards, for any of girls in your life, at any age.
Baby Emma Baby Emma Book

this kit, full of girly goodness, is limited to 18 exclusive kits and is available only while supplies last.

circle craft starts in 9 days on tuesday, november 11 and runs until sunday, november 16.

we expect a busy shopping day on DAY ONE of the Circle Craft since it’s REMEMBRANCE DAY and a statutory holiday in Canada. so, if you are interested in any of our featured kits, consider shopping on tueday november 11 to get the best selection.

ok… back to the salt mine and packing hundreds of rubberstamps =)
