checking in bloggers! hope your weekend has been going well. we've been keeping very busy here in the uk. after leaving art from the heart we headed to birmingham for the stitches trade show (the uk version of cha). before the show started i had a full day of education for retailers along with dyan sharing a number of ranger products and techniques. we both taught two 3 hour workshops where students created 3 very unique canvas displays. we shared techniques on ranger's distress stains, perfect pearls, and the claudine hellmuth studio lines - such fun. here's a peek of the projects we did...
the show started today where i demoed for our distributor personal impressions showing all of the latest and greatest ranger techniques - i always love the excitement of a show! another exciting thing about the stitches show is the UK and Europe debut of the vagabond - yes, it's really here! i had the chance to check it out over here in person and it's truly as perfect as mine at home - bravo sizzix...
so tomorrow i'm back at the stitches show for more demoing before heading into london to get ready for my midnight launch on qvc-uk for some very cool craft kits. plus there is a very special...very exclusive...not available anywhere else in the WORLD...kit i've designed for the midnight tsv launch! you certainly won't want to miss out so be sure to tune in, quanities are limited. that's all i can say about that kit for now, but if you want to check out some of the other products i'll be featuring and demoing, check out here...
so bloggers, i'll be sharing more of my qvc-uk adventures soon and then we're off again for the artsy crafts event i'll be teaching later this week - until then...t!m





I love the BRIGHT colors-- Just wished it was BHAM Al ... I would buy you Starbucks!
Enjoy your travels!

What great ideas. I've been sick all weekend and my only inspiration has been oj, my laptop and Downton Abbey. I can't wait to feel better and get back to creating.
