All you wanted to know about Stamp & Chats

What is a Stamp & Chat anyway? I have them about twice a month and everyone has a good time, but what is it and why do I persist in having them?

First of all a Stamp & Chat is just that. We stamp, we chat,  we drink coffee and eat chocolate. Sometimes everyone wants to make a project I create and sometimes they bring their own projects and we all work together. Sometimes it's a stamp project and we make a card. Sometimes we work on scrapbooks. Never does it cost any money to attend a Stamp & Chat.

These are the cards I made at my daughter's house. I would say we had some really good Stamp & Chats, which brings me to the next question, can you take a Stamp & Chat and have it somewhere else?

Of course you can! In Colorado, Kim and JoAnn and I moved our Stamp & Chat to a local coffee shop. In Idaho, Megan and I had our Stamp & Chats in her dining room. I just loaded up a suitcase with all the fun goodies from my Stamp Studio. Oh the fun you can have.

My next Stamp and Chat is coming up Wednesday September 3rd from 10 am to 1 pm. Do you work during the day and can't come to my Stamp and Chat? Just let me know and I'll plan an evening one AND we can even have it at your house or mine.



If you want to plan your own Stamp & Chat at your house with your own friends, just leave a comment and I'll get right back to you so we can have some stamping fun!

Hope to see you at a Stamp & Chat really soon!

Megan took the Pathfinding card kit and added the little fox from a past Stamp of the Month. Very clever and very cute!

Stamping on the Road

This week I took my Stamp Studio essential supplies, fun papers, stamps, and accessories and had some fun with my friends, Kim, JoAnn and Emma, in Longmont, Colorado. We had a blast! I thought you'd enjoy seeing some of their samples we made, including this new bird set that is in the NEW catalog. Be sure to check out my website for the all new catalog.

These cards are made by JoAnn and Kim, using the new paper called Pathfinding (in the NEW catalog) and Happy Birds (in the NEW catalog). We also used some gold sequins, also in the new catalog. Aren't my stamping friends, talented?

The bug cards and box are made with Lollydoodle paper (no longer available . . . sorry) and the bug set is called Buggy Love. We also used some Flamingo Dots to add some bling. You can't see too well in the pictures but we glittered the bugs too. FUN.

All the stamping fun!
