Sarah Kay Stamp Cards
Fun with Glossy Accents/ Tip for intricate metal dies
Here is a sample of some things we've done with the Glossy Accents. The butterflies and "Happy Everything" card front were all just printed from the internet on my computer. You can't really tell in the photo, but the glossy accents makes the colors more vibrant, and also gives an epoxy, glossy finish for a nice touch. The glossy accents is easy to apply, won't run & dries clear. You just squeeze it out and "color" over the top of your image, stamp, photo, etc. The little orange rose in the upper right corner, to the left of the card, was made with paper, and I coated it with the Glossy Accents as well. It really looks like a lil' porcelain rose! Cute! We have the displays in the store for you to look at.
Also, got a great tip from one of my customers, Barb Gilliam. She says if you put waxed paper over your intricate metal dies first, and THEN put the paper you want to cut on top of the waxed paper, you won't have any little stuck pieces of paper left in the die! I'm going to run out and get some for the store!

When Good Tape Guns go Bad!
Ladies,
This was just too good to not pass along!
I was allowed to photograph the attached "ATG Gun Incident" by a customer...providing I did not reveal her name! Note the tape runner coiled up inside the case of the gun as well.
I was able to rescue the gun!

Class Ideas and Class Times
Ladies,
I'm trying to start off our Fall with a nice selection of classes. I'm needing to get some input from the most important people of all....my loyal customers! I have a few questions and would greatly appreciate your input!
1. Do you prefer classes during the work day, after work hours, or on weekends? (More than one answer may apply.)
2. What types of classes would you be most interested in attending? Card making, invitations, wedding invitations, scrapbooking lessons, altered items, holiday gifts, holiday crafts, others?
3. Are there items that you wish the store would carry that we do not? If so, what are they?
Thanks so much for your thoughts and responses. Obviously, the customer is the most important part of any retail store, so I value your input, and hope to tailor the store to your specific needs.
ALSO: I have some interest in doing a quilling class. If you are interested, please comment on the blog or e-mail me.
