Seminar Creations

In May & June - I was working on projects for TAC's (The Angel Company) Annual Seminar. Here a couple of them -

First is a box I decorated (was on clearance - later wished I had more than one) and filled with yummy Dove dark chocolates. The box was just white, I used a couple of colors of palette ink pads (they are oval) and touched them directly to the box (I love this effect, and it's SO easy). Then stamped, colored, matted, stickled, pop-dotted and added flowers...and Voila...a creation I didn't want to give up. This was my "prop swap" for the Manager's Luncheon.

Second, is a 6x6 scrapbook page I made up for swapping with others. After my first Seminar - I decided that all of my 6x6 pages would include photos...it's not a requirement, but it looks finished and much nicer.

I used our TAC Scarlet, Brown & Kraft cardstocks; assorted bitty blossoms, Flourishes & All Things of Nature stamp sets; Burnt Umber Palette ink.

These beautiful tulips are located in my beloved state of Washington - there are fields & fields of tulips every April. I look forward to possibly seeing it again in 2009. These photos are scans from years ago when I used film photography.


Sorry about the yellow cast in the photos - I tried to block some of the excess light and it backfired on my pictures.

Clipboard Photo Frame


In March, I celebrated my birthday. It was officially on Friday -but the party started on Sunday of that week.

On Friday, the 21st, I took a mini road trip with 2 friends (Michele - left, Michelle - right) an hour north. We had a wonderful day shopping and eating out at Red Robin - followed by ice cream & Starbucks before heading towards home.

I recently had a "clipboard class" which I love doing; one gal said she was going to use her clipboard for a photo. I loved the idea - now this is hanging on my wall.

What a great way to remember a superb day!! Plus, the photo is only held by the clip - no adhesive, so it's easy to change when my mood changes.

Supplies used are TAC with a little help of "contraband" ribbon. H-104: 6 1/2" x 6 1/2" Chipboard Clipboard, V-830 Kamalaht Cardstock, B-211 Mimi Ribbon, T-2614 Flourishes stamp set, D-437 Asst.
