Merry Christmas to All!!

Christmas is right around the corner, The shopping is done, still need to wrap the gifts.
My son and grandson are going to bake a cake on Friday for Jesus' Birthday. I think that is the sweetest thing.
Austin ( age 4 ) is really going to enjoy this Christmas, he's old enough to understand what it is all about. We took him to see Santa and the scrapbook page is adorable, if I can figure out how to post it I will.
Starting to get classes ready for next year, for conventions and my traveling teaching classes.
Lots of fun stuff in the making.....keep watching.
My stamps are now available at www.brokenroadcreativestudios.com. A new web site from my friend Eric Dull, who is also introducing his Brand New line of stamps....check it out
May the goo Lord bless and keep you safe during the Holidays and always.
Love,
Stacy

Totally Gorgeous Card by Virginia Behrens

Hi Everyone, It's Anna again blogging for Stacy. We are so excited and so looking forward to seeing Stacy today at the Creative Corner. It won't be long now.

I also wanted to share with you a fabulous card that Ginny made for my shop. (I am so blessed to have her on my Design Team.)

Ginny used Stacy's Pumpkin Patch stamp as well as the Spellbinders Scalloped border set. She colored the pumpkins with Copics. And of course it looks sooo much better in real life, but this should give you some inspiration for your Thanksgiving Day projects.

Thanks for stopping by and check back soon, as we'll give you the scoop on Stacy's travels!

Hi,
This really Stacy,actually blogging!!
Life has been crazy..crazy good! This past couple of weeks we have been preparing to move the shop I work in..STAMPLISTIC. So Sunday 5/23 was the BIG DAY. With a group of FRIENDS OF STAMPLISTIC (volunteers) we packed it up, moved tons of stuff to the new location(just across the parking lot.), to our new DIGS at 1957 Copper Foster Rd. Monday, the movers came for the heavy stuff and Tuesday and Wednesday we reset the store..opened at 10:00am Thursday 5/27. It looks FABULOUS!!!
I want to thank everyone that helped with the move..you are all wonderful.
So please stop by soon and check it out.

Next thing to talk about is MICHIGAN!!! I LOVE YOU!!! I was there for the StampScrapArtTour convention in Southfield on May 14,15 and 16. Had a great show and was so glad to see all of you. On Monday, I taught 3 classes at My Craft Room in Troy..loaded with 30 students. We had a great time and they made beautiful projects.

I will be listing my travels on the website (I promise to get that updated SOON) hopefully we can get together and PLAY.

Happy "V" day to all!

A beautiful facility on a lake with a fabulous lodge with tons of room to spread out all your stuff and work away. The cabins are warm and cozy. And the FOOD is to die for!!! Check them out!
I will be showing off my newest stamps..The poppy triangle and the single poppy.
These will be on cling foam and be sold as a set. They are so new I don't have a picture to put up yet...but will soon.
Starting to set up the 2010 calender for travel..will keep you posted. Hope some of you can join me.
