Fun Stuff!!

We're having fun in the classroom!

Can you believe we are half way through December! Not only that...it's almost 2009!! WOW! Time sure does fly by when you're having fun :) Speaking of fun...have you signed up for any classes lately? I'm teaching "Keep it Mum" on Monday Dec. 15th from 1p-4p. We are going to have a glitterific time making three-dimensional flower cards!

Did you see we have a new instructor here at Stamp Works? Lori Barnett taught Intro. to Copic Markers last Thursday. Everyone had a fantastic time in class learning about the markers. Here's a couple pics of some of the ladies having fun playing.

Lori made those cute little treats to share with everyone in class. Isn't it amazing how you can color and shade with Copic markers on a tiny stamped image! I have a selection of individual "must have" marker colors available at the store that make a perfect addition to the sets. This is the perfect opportunity for you to try them out. But beware -- you will want more! :)

We have a lot of great classes coming for the New Year!! Take a look at the calender HERE to see what we already have planned for January. Better yet....come on in the the store & see all the great samples and sign up for one of these fun classes!!! Don't put it off too long...classes fill fast! Hope to see you soon :)

Happy Stamping!

I'm Here!!

Thanks for stopping by my new blog. As you can see, I'm still working on setting it up. I hope to post more often as time allows :)

Over on the sidebar are links to the store, class calendars and newsletters. There are some AWESOME classes scheduled for October and November. Class space is limited and they fill up quick - so register early!! Stop by the store to see some samples.

Can you believe it's already the 2nd week of October! Time to think about getting those Holiday cards started. Come on over to the store for some inspiration to get you going. I have lots of new goodies you won't want to miss. And don't forget about my Saturday Make & Take. It's always fun to take home a completed card!

Happy Stamping!

Stamp Works is now Blogging!

Hi everyone! This blog is being created for Nic at Stamp Works in Chandler, AZ. My name is Tricia. I am a teacher at Stamp Works and am helping Nic out by starting her blog for her. I'm going to try to get her to do some posts but she is always super busy at the store, so you might see a lot from me. I have been blogging for over a year now, and have met so many wonderful people all over the world. Blogging has really opened my eyes to a much broader audience.

I'm hoping that with this blog it will open up lots more customers and artists to Stamp Works. Nic has a lot of customers that only visit the store a few times a year when they are here for the winter months and some that come weekly. So with this blog, you can see what is going on in the store when you can't make it. We will try to post pics of all the classes and descriptions, and maybe even have some pics of classes going on. Please leave a comment and we will add you to our mailing list. I have not learned everything there is to know about blogging but I am learning, so bear with me. I have a blog myself, you can link to it on the side bar--vintagebliss.typepad.com. I love to look at pics so I will always have pics with posts. So, with this first post. I thought I would share some pics of the store I took a few months ago.
