Winners!

Well, I set the post below up to automatically post last week, and apparently something went wrong.  :) I was rushing around trying to get post CHA projects finalized and also deciding whether we were going to keep our permits for a little Rogue River whitewater rafting trip late last week... anyway, I didn't check to make sure it posted, so I apologize for the delay!  We ended up deciding to go ahead with the rafting trip.... here's where we were:

That's Blossom Bar on the "Wild and Scenic" portion of the lower Rogue River.  Probably my favorite spot on this earth.  :)  Love "my" river.

And here's that missing post with the lucky winners:

Hi Friends,

I'm back from CHA and am going to hit the ground running!  It was lots of fun getting to see our friends from stores across the country (actually from all across the globe!).  I enjoyed the opportunity to make some new friends also.  We came home with lots of orders and will be busy this month getting those shipped.  I was also glad to get to see my "Carson" rubber stamp show friends just prior to CHA. I'm headed out to the Cincinnatti "Stampaway" show next week and look forward to seeing some Ohio friends also.

Here's the TWO lucky winners of the new Shrink Plastic Project kit from the previous post.

Love all of the charms! I can see some fun crafting times with my granddaughters - they love making shrink art jewelry! See you in August at stampaway convention.

I'd love to win one of the cd's. I bought your flower kit and the flat buttons at the last convention I saw you at. Love it and would love the cd, I'm sure.

So, since this was late posting.... the winners will have until Friday, July 31st to claim their prize.  Just email me with your mailing address at [email protected], and I'll send those out next week.

Here's one more photo of my home away from home:

Such a pretty place, I feel fortunate to live near my favorite river.  So much to do, so little time.... but I'm glad we squeezed this trip in.  (I know I'll pay for it this week with lots of late nights, but it was worth it... the permits are hard to come by.)  This shot was taken approaching the "Clay Hill" rapid on the last day of the trip, for those of you familiar with the Rogue.  I always wish I had pictures of the more exciting rapids, but am always worried my camera (or phone) will get drenched.  And we do get absolutely soaked in some of them!

See you soon with more new product previews and information.

Carson Original Rubber Stamp Convention - New Products!!

If you live in the Southern California area, I just wanted to let you know we'll be bringing my booth to the Carson Original Rubber Stamp show this weekend.  We normally bring Stamper's Anonymous and Art Gone Wild... but due to some scheduling conflicts with the CHA show being next week, we decided to bring my booth this time... and we'll also be bringing it in November, as usual.  

Tonya and I will be at the show this weekend.... well, actually I'll only be there on Saturday.  I'm headed out to the big CHA show in Chicago on Sunday.

BUT!!! Very exciting news.... we'll be bringing most of the new products and pre-releasing them at Carson.  We'll be doing FREE make-it and take-its using my new Shrink Plastic Project CD, CD204 Vintage Trinkets.  You can use the 150 images to make some really cool jewelry and gift items. Here's a preview of the cover of the CD:

Some cool stuff, huh?  Want to make one for FREE?  Then come on down to the show, we have several to choose from. 

Would you like to win one of the new CD's?!  Yup, I'm going to give two of them away... so if you'd like to have your name entered into the drawing for the CD's, just make a comment below on THIS post by midnight, July 23rd. I'll post the winning names on July 24th when I return from CHA. The winners will have until July 27 to email me to claim the prizes.  

We hope to see you at the Carson show!  

Darcie :)

 

 

New Products!

Whew!  Been a long few months creating the Fall CHA new product releases!  Most of the products are actually finalized and in stock already... Woohoo!  I just wanted to let my Carson Original Rubber Stamp Convention friends that I will be at the show this weekend (well, I'll actually only be there on Saturday).... AND I'll be bringing most of the new products with me. Woohoo!  

Here's a little sneak peek at a few of the card samples made using the new stamp sets:

Aw, I really like him, lol.  Yes... cute friends.... I have a bunch of stuff for you this time, lol.  And a bunch of stuff for my new vintage friends also!

Here's another one:

And yes.... we are fans of the "Elf" movie in this house.  Here's another of the Christmas/Winter cards:

And one of the Halloween sets:

So much to show you!  All of the shapes on the cards were made using my brand new nested dies... which coordinate with my brand new Acrylic Charms.  

Check back tomorrow.... I'll be showing you some of the vintage images, and also will be showing you my new Shrink Plastic CD, CD204 Vintage Trinkets.  It contains over 150 images that you can use to make some really awesome necklaces, jewelry, gift items, magnets, etc.  I'll also be giving one away.... :)
