Mary Polcin’s Album

Published by Stephanie under Stampin'

conv2008-824.JPG

I posted pictures from the SU convention that included the album that Mary Polcin showed us. I’m getting lots of emails asking for the instructions which I don’t have. From looking at the photos, I have come up with a materials list that I THINK she used. If I missed something please feel free to let me know and I’ll update it:

Stamps: Wonderful Words, Frames with a Flourish, Heard from the Heart, Holidays and Wishes, Pocket Silhouettes, Totally Tabs

Paper: Baja Breeze DSP

Ink: Baja Breeze

Accessories: Baja Breeze 1″ Double-Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon, Whisper White Taffeta Ribbon, Scallop Square Punch, Scallop Edge Punch, circle punches, horizontal slot punch, square punches, round tab punch, tag punches, brads, square ice rhinestone brads

The actual book consists of CD literature folders that are available in bulk from Uline or individually at Just 4 Fun Crafts.

Another SCS member, Dani D, found a video tutorial which shows how to put together a similar book. You can view it here:

I have ordered everything to make this and it will arrive today. I will try to duplicate the project and, if I can, will post a tutorial here on my blog.

Back from Convention!

Published by Stephanie under Stampin'

Wow! I think I’ve finally recouperated from Stampin’ Up!’s convention! I’ve posted my photos in my Splitcoaststampers gallery…lots of awesome projects on display. I went to convention with seven fabulous ladies and over half of us won door prizes! SU went all out this year and we had a blast.

I’m busy this weekend cleaning out my stamp room and getting ready for my upcoming open house. I also need to make lots of room for new stamps! We received the new Fall/Winter catalog at convention and I have a huge wish list!

I’ll try to get a project created and posted soon…stay tuned!
