Tim Holtz Workshop - Sydney June 2012

Kaszazz are an amazing company and I'm so glad I'm a Consultant for them. On the 19th of June I flew to Sydney to attend a Tim Holtz workshop organised by Peter and Karen Stock of Kaszazz in conjunction with Stamp It and Ranger. We got to meet Tim Holtz, Mario and Alain from Ranger and do a 3 hour technique workshop (I'll be running this workshop soon - details posted soon). We all got a commemorative mug and we got to bring along something for Tim to sign. I choose my Creative Chemistry 101 Graduate apron. The workshop was great fun and I even made it into a video on Tim's blog (that's me waving) and a photo. After the workshop, Peter and Karen Stock of Kaszazz took us all out to lunch at a wonderful restaurant where a 'mini conference' was held. Awards and prizes were given. Linda (my travel companion) took off a little early as Linda hadn't travelled before, let alone to Sydney. So we headed off to see the sights and take a ferry trip around the harbour. Little did I know that I won 1st prize for the Most Attractive 2HW for 2011! $500 in product and $500 in vouchers! Wow, thanks Kaszazz!

1st Place - Most Attractive 2HW 2011/2012

Wow! My Flowers and Flourish Workshop has been voted the Most Attractive 2HW by Kaszazz for 2011/2012. Unfortunately I left the lunch in Sydney early to go sightseeing, thinking that I wouldn't be receiving any prizes or awards, so I didn't get to receive my $500 worth of products first hand. Although, according to Janet Buckle I wouldn't have been able to bring it all back as I had only bought a carry-on luggage ticket anyway! Thanks for lugging the goodies back Janet! If you would liket to do this workshop or any of the other great workshops that Kaszazz offer - email me. Cheers,

Lyndsay Baigent Training Day

Off to the Lyndsay Baigent Training Day at Zena Melville's place. Here's the "Friendship" themed card that I made for the swap. Dusty Concord, Worn Lipstick and Dried Marigold Distress Ink plus Gold Glow Smooch Spritz for the background with some flowers from the 1942LM Flowers Un-cut set stamped with Weathered Wood Distress Ink. I've stamped the new 4512Q Ornate Flouish Stamp set with Staz On ink onto Acetate and attached over the Cherish Friends background with Gold Spiral Clips.

Have a great weekend and I hope that you get time to get creative.

Cheers,

Ezy-Press Die and Embossing Plate Storage

Ever wondered how to store your Ezy-Press dies and Embossing Folders? Well here's the solution - the 5036 SB Album D Ring 8.5" x 11" (rrp $29.95). The great thing being that you can cover the front of the album however you choose.



The larger Dies, such as the 2901 Circle die fit perfectly into the protective sleeves that come with the album. I leave mine on the backing card that the dies come on. Small to medium sized dies and embossing plates fit into the 70276 SB Album - Share and Tell - Photo Pocket Pages 6x4. I just fold the page in 1/2 so that it doesn't poke out the side of the album.



The smallest of dies fit in the ATC display pages that you can buy at any good newsagency or gaming shop.


Hope you enjoy Love, Peace, Good Health and Happiness in 2012.

Cheers,

GPP - Crusade No. 58 - Girls on Film

Thought I'd participate in a few more GPP Crusades...this one is about getting yourself on film as oftern we're the ones behind the camera. I took these photos today whilst the kids and co. were having a ball sliding down the rocks at FR Berry Reserve.

Yeah, no makeup and no photoshop!

Christmas 1-4-1 Swap 2011

This is the gift that I received in the Arty_oz yahoo group 1-4-1 Christmas Swap for 2011. Michelle Brown has created this lovely art journal for me and also included some emphemera, painted pages and dress pattern paper. Now I will have to get serious about doing an art journal. I noted on Michelle's Blog that Michelle is an avid GPP Crusader - I've participated but very rarely. Maybe this is something I need to do more often to help the mojo flow. Now I don't do New Year's resolutions as you just end up feeling disappointed but I may just have to use the Nike credo of "Just do it!".

Have an inky week....I'm off to turn my craft room upside down looking for a Tim Holtz mask that I just know I have somewhere.....

An extra week before Christmas will do...

I thought I was prepared for Christmas this year - Ha! Not likely. I've only done 10 Christmas cards. I have completed my Stampgropers 2012 Calendar Swap pieces plus having assembled the other 5 calendars in readiness for posting tomorrow. I've also made two vintage glass snowmen. One was sent to Teresa Abajo for a 1-4-1 Christmas Swap on the Arty_oz yahoo group, the other was a Secret Santa gift for the Anne Westerneng's Kaszazz Team Christmas party. Also managed a card for a friend's 30th.
So many things still to do and I'm running out of time.

Embroidered Jeans

The beginning of a new business venture for me. Keep coming back to the blog as I do more machine embroidery and start up my little business of adding machine embroidery and bling to second hand jeans and denim skirts.



These jeans got the Steampunk Wyvern treatment plus I added some cogs cut out from old pants (Tim Holts - Alterations Die). Sorry these are mine - but you can place an order if you like, just email me.

Cheers.
