Twitter Chat at 7 PM PST This Saturday 9-7-13  twitter.com

Chat with the ICE Resin Creative Team as we reveal our top secret gifts! We've been working hard, annealing, resinating, and cold enameling to bring you an amazing array of uniquely inspiring mixed media jewelry pieces. See what we're putting in the celeb gift bags at the Prime time Emmys Gifting Suite Party!

Our designers will explain how they made each piece - ask them questions and learn how to create these pieces for yourself!  You could make the jewelry of the stars!!! 


We are going to have a blast, so put on a good movie on for the kids, put the dogs up, pour yourself a glass of wine (Ill be having Chai!)and come to the party.   Your first chance to get a good look at the beautiful creations from the Ice Resin Design team. Its just a bonus that we are all pretty good party guests!! cant wait to see you there.  

I will have post's on my blog to coincide with the Twitter chat.  My first chat, how exciting.  Follow me on my blog and or twitter to be sure you don't miss it

Stampington Hau!!!!

I think once a year,  Stamping has a huge blow sale on back issues. This year was Aug 9th.   I set my alarm to remind me and it went of at 1145PM. The Sale ended at Midnight. I rushed frantically to choose the ones I wanted.  Even with the limited time,  I was still able to pick up a few Things

My box weighed over 50 pounds!
but look what I got!




Nancy is wondering what the heck is going on!






My box arrived the day I returned for teaching at bead fest.  This is the only time the box has been opened.  I have dreams of my husband taking me to his Families Cabin in La Plata mountains in  Colorado and leave me there for the winter.  It snows so much once your in, your not getting out. I have dreams of taking all my art supplies and just working uninterrupted.  Since the magazines have arrived, my dream of being locked away all winter has become More appealing.  I could make art during the day and read at night.  I guess ill have o wait until I'm in a nursing home to have some free time to read them!!!
While reviewing my packing sheet, I realized My sisters birthday was Aug 9th!!! I had to call and give my condolences. If she liked art, I would giver her a stack of fabulous magazines!!!

Go to stampington and get on the e mail. they send out news letter once a weak and give heads up on sales like this.


Cant wait to start flipping through them!
