those same items, plus pictures, die-cuts and other embellishments.   
 
I love, love, love my new Silhouette Cameo.  I cut something using the Cameo 
on every page of my scrapbooks.  I am also the self proclaimed "Queen of 
Bling".  I have made my shirts for friends and family, as well as many for 
myself."

Tune-in Tuesday: Treat Tubes!

2011-08-30T18:35:00.000-05:00

Vicki has been busy creating a ton of treat tubes lately! Check 'em out:

The Page now carries these great treat tubes in three different sizes! Candy always works nicely in these tubes... Skittles, M&M's, or perhaps nuts... you know, for your "squirrelly" friend (we all have 'em!) :)

And these tubes can be used for more than just treat containers... the 4-1/2" & 7" tubes are sized perfectly to hold nicely stacked quarters! How about a "Laundry Fund" tube gift for a college kid?

The "wand" is great for creating pinwheels or maybe a little something for a princess? A wand filled with buttons makes a great gift idea for a seamstress, scrapbooker, or papercrafter.

And these aren't just for giving... can you say "STORAGE"? Exactly! As scrapbookers & papercrafters, we all have a ton of little bits & bobbs, and these tubes are easy to tuck away & tote! Look at how Nina B. stores her flowers:

Brilliant!!

My favorite gift tube that Vicki created has to be this cute teacher set, complete with accompanying mini-book in a little holder... absolutely adorable! And what a quick, cute & easy gift this makes!!

Saturday Creativity Workshop

Don't you want to make some of these?!!! Well, come on by on Saturday, September 3rd from 2pm-4pm and join Vicki in creating this versatile treat tube gift:

A card & gift tube all-in-one!

{candy not included}

See you then!

Tune in later this week to find out what the next Creativity Workshop will be.

Freaky Friday...

2011-08-26T06:00:00.014-05:00

How about a little fun today?! And by fun, I mean reeeeeallly fun ;)

I know quite a few of you have already seen these little gems in the store, but we thought you may want to know what products and Copic markers were used so that you can re-create them at home!
(please click images to enlarge)

First up... well... let's just call her...

Devilishly Sweet Tilda

Can you spot what makes her look a little "devilish"?

Yep, that's right... Barb decided to balance out that sweetness with a nice pair of horns :) I'm sure you're not surprised by that one!

Stamps: Magnolia - Lucia Tilda

Paper: Basic Grey - bittersweet praline

Creative Imaginations - Wasn't Me

Other: EK Success Graceful Heart punch, May Arts ribbon, black rhinestones

Copics: skin - E11, E00, E000, R20 (cheeks)

hair - E35, E33, E31, E25

pink - R59, R85, R83, R81

black - T7, T5, T3

leaves - YG03

Now, if adding a couple of little ol' horns to a Tilda image has you second-guessing anything, then you'd better hold on to your keyboard for this one:

Franken-Tilda

Oh yes. Yes she did. Barb had every intention of making Tilda into a sweet little witch, but a customer suggested to go all "Frankie" on her instead.

Ask and you shall receive ;)

A few quick stitches with a Copic Multiliner, and a monster was born!

Stamps: Magnolia - Will You be my Valentine Tilda

Paper: WeR Memory Keepers - Spookville Eerie Eyes

Other: Martha Stewart Gothic Arches punch, May Arts bat & ghost trims, pearl, black rhinestones

Copics: skin - G85, G82, 0, R20 (cheeks)

Butterfly Garden Layouts with Rene Koehn:

Wednesday, August 24th from 6:30-8:30pm

These GORGEOUS layouts are soooooo Rene-style: soft, chic, and that bit o' shabbiness that adds just the right touch to these feminine pages. If you hurry, she MIGHT still have a few spots open... so be sure to call and reserve your spot!

Saturday, August 27th Make-n-Take:

Join Rene from 2pm-4pm and get down and dirty with Studio gesso, acrylic paint daubers, and the shimmer of Perfect Pearls! This beautiful tag will be the perfect addition a to heritage, shabby-chic, or feminine layout!

Clean and Simple meet The Little Details! Plenty of room for several photos, these layouts are geared for both beginner and seasoned scrapbookers alike, who want a fresh look to their pages. Just look at those ants... SO ca-yoot! There is plenty of time left to sign up, so give us a call!

Guess who's swooning, now?

2011-08-22T20:44:00.000-05:00

Yep, it's me... Carolyn! The new Flea Market Style magazine arrived at the store last week, and I couldn't be happier...

See?

Look at those vintage suitcase shelves! Fantastic!

Typically they only have one release in Spring, but this year they have done their first ever Fall release. Yippeee! Now I don't have to sit, pining away for it all winter... well... ok... I'll still be pining, but it will definitely be easier ;)

This magazine was so hard to find... so after cruising and calling all over town, I decided to bring it into the store! One copy is great, but an entire PILE to share is so exciting. All of the corners are already curled up on my copy, and it just makes me even MORE excited for the Junk Bonanza in September!

JUST IN!!

2011-08-18T15:18:00.000-05:00

I wish we would have had a photo of Cameron yesterday... he was completely buried under the new shipment of

Echo Park's Apothecary Emporium:

{sigh...thud}

That would be Barb, swooning ;)

AND...

Well... you should really just pop by the store and check it all out, because it's all ON THE SHELVES! That's right. No need to wait because everyone at The Page has been busy, busy, busy getting everything sorted & displayed :)

Don't forget about this Saturday's Creativity Workshop!

SCREEN PRINT AT HOME

Fabric ink
Silhouette fabric ink is the cleaner way to screen print at home. With the Silhouette you don't need screens, squeegees, or heat lamps and best of all the process is quick and clean. With your Silhouette and stencil vinyl, cut any design you can dream of and apply it to your fabric project. Mix your favorite color of ink and dab it onto your stencil with a brush or sponge. After just 20 minutes, you can remove the stencil and show off your newly printed piece of art. Silhouette fabric ink bottles measure 2 ounces and can produce 5-10 projects depending on intricacy.

FABRIC INK STARTER KITS
The fabric ink starter kit contains all of the materials necessary to create your first fabric ink project from ink to a mixing tray and instructional DVD. With your Silhouette and fabric ink starter kit you'll find it easy to get started with Silhouette fabric ink.

Starter kit includes:
2 oz bottle of black fabric ink
3 feet of see-through stencil vinyl and clear transfer tape
Silhouette hook
mixing tray
sea sponge
foam brush
exclusive download card good for 10 stencil designs

The 2" x 2" pads are made with a higher raised felt for easier use with direct to paper techniques, Re-inkers available in .5 oz. amber glass bottles with eye drop applicators.
