Build-a-Bear Girls Workshop

Here are some photos from a recent Build-a-Bear workshop for a bunch of little girls. My niece Audrey was the hostess for this event. We had a great time and these girls, ages 4+, enjoyed creating the 4 bear projects: favor box complete with a candy necklace, a stamped bear card, a bear cut die card and and a decorative lunch bag to carry all our goodies & extra bear parts and clothes home.

I would love to do more of these workshops so please let me know if there are any Build-a-Bear creations we can make with you and your group of friends or children!

Swap basket contents

Here's a closer look at the contents of the swap basket mentioned in the last post. Many of these favorites will be inspiration for cards to make at future stamp classes this fall. Hope to see you at a stamping class this fall,

Monthly card projects

Here's a picture of my swap basket full of goodies ready to go to card classes and workshops this month. The samples inside the basket are swaps from Stampin' Up! convention this past August. Many of you haven't seen these so bring your cameras when you come to class this next month and feel free to photograph your favorites. The projects sitting outside the basket are the projects at stamp classes this month. I have to tell you that my adult stampers are having just as much fun with the Build a Bear items as my younger stampers are. I'll have more about a little girls bear workshop in a future post. So if you haven't joined a class yet this month there is still time. I'll travel to Chappell, NE on Sept. 22 and of course would set a workshop up for you and your friends, just let me know.
Happy stamping,
Jennifer Thomas
