~National Magazine~

My hubby, Mike is in a National Magazine!!!!!

Have you heard of the Magazine "Life Images"

by Somerset from Stampington?

Check this out!

This is Mike proudly holding "THE MAGAZINE" with his photo in it!!!!

This is the front cover of Life Images that has his photo in (just incase you are in a store and want to peek PAGE 22).

Last spring, before we had even thought of opening a store we had seen this magazine and Mike liked some of the photos that were in it. He checked it out and wondered about submitting one of his pictures. He submitted a couple and a month later he heard from Life Images that they had chosen one of his photos. We were so excited! The picture happened to be of our 2 little girls staring into each other's eyes.




We were unsure of what issue his picture would be published in since it only comes out quarterly. Saturday Mike brought the mail in and there was the magazine! We both looked at each other and I was not waiting for him to open it, he just stared at it. I tore the plastic wrapper off and started paging through and there it was! His picture, his name and where he lives and his poem and the equipment he used! I was like a kid in the candy store! Seeing my husband's name, Mike Marti in a National Magazine was so exciting to see! It was real!



When you come visit us we will have the magazine in the front cabinet for you to see and the original picture is on the wall as well. Sorry he will not be around for autographs ~wink ;}, just kidding!



Congratulations to my hubby! And Yes, he is also the photographer for Pictures Delight.

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!

Just a reminder we will open back up on WED, JANUARY 7th - 10AM

~DIVA~

I just had to share this cute Diva Babe with all of you! This is my youngest grand baby Jali, yes, I have a grand baby. I actually have 3 and no I was not 15 when I had my eldest child. LOL (I get asked that a lot ) Ok back to the layout.








I love how this 12x12 layout turned out. I got my inspiration from here, http://glitzitnow.blogspot.com/ . The ladies at Glitz have some wonderful ideas and layouts and Yes I carry their papers and lots more of their goodies will be in the shop soon. I love it, love it ALL!!



What I did to my layout is I first cut out the shape of the paper on the top right hand so the picture would fit into it. I used my favorite super strong double sided tape (I carry it in the store) all around the edges and I sprinkled Pink Paislee Pixie Stix Licorice Candy around the edge to give that sparkle! See all of the outline of the flower's stem? I outlined all of the stems with EK Success glue pen and sprinkled more Licorice candy all over it. Pretty huh?



I used 2 flowers from my Heidi Swapp line for the big flower and placed one of her big black brads in the center and then added some of her bling flowers into the center of the brad. I loved the flower that was in the Glitz design but I did not have one like that so I just sprinkled yup, more licorice. BLing BLing BABY!!!!!

See the word Diva? I used my Quickutz that I have in the Scrap room for everyone to use. For those of you who maybe new to scrapbooking, a Quickutz is a tool that uses patterened dies to cut out shapes and letters. I then used the glue pen to adhere the word Diva to the page and added more glue to the front of the letters. I must just love bling because I sprinkled more licorice over the letters and placed more of Heidi's bling flowers to the wording.

I wanted this to be a real girly girl layout so I used pink SEI paper for a matt behind the picture and added a corner pink bling, again from the Heidi Swapp collection. I had some pink, black and white sheer ribbon from my own private stash and I tied them in a knot and adhered to the bottom right hand corner.

This was such a fun layout and I got to show off one of the girls in our family to all of you. The products used to create this design can be found right here at Scrapping on the Go and I can even help you to scrap your own keepsake if you would like me too.

Thanks for taking a peek!

~Heidi Blankenship~

Heidi was at the shop today how exciting!!! As you can see we had a full house and everybody was working hard. Can you tell? The really funny part is my hubby Mike was also hard at work and we both forgot to take the after pics. If you want to know what the cards look like while everybody holds up their creations you will have to check out Heidi's blog in the next couple of days by clicking here: http://embellished-dreams.blogspot.com/.

I know she will be posting soon and you will be able to see the beautiful creations! Heidi is such a great teacher and so patient. She had so many great ideas and tips and soooo many creative ideas. I am so looking forward to her next class. I will be sure to post when there will be a class. I am planning on having Heidi teach at least once a month. THANK YOU Heidi for coming to Scrapping on the GO!

I would also like to thank my mom Barb who came all the way from Faribault for this class, Kathy, Donna, Becky, SigLinda, Bonnie and Terry for visiting with Heidi and creating some beautiful creations. I know they had fun with the glitters and they LOVED the Crafty Secrets products. Oh ya I almost forgot thank you Heidi for the wonderful give aways! I have to honestly say I was bummed that I did not win. Better luck next time for me. LOL

Just to let you all know that if you would like to check out what Crafty Secrets is all about the product should be in my store within the next couple of weeks. YAAAA!

Here is a pic of me with Heidi. I should of left my glasses on I look a little squinty! LOl I have to say that I am so happy that Heidi has come to my shop and is teaching classes.

~The Shop~

OK Ladies, You are probably going to think that I am losing my mind but you have to hear this one LOL!

I was going to sit down and start a blog for the shop and since I already have one for my ebay user I would just have two. Well I signed up and I put in Scrapping on the Go and an error came up saying that name was already being used. I thought to my self WHAAAAT???? Who else would have that? That is my name. So I checked it out and it was ME!!!!. HAHA I thought ok I have already lost it!

I forgot that when I had planned on having a traveling store then plans changed and I decided to open a store. Then in between everything I forgot. Now isn't that funny??? (wink)

Well we opened the shop July 19ht and it has been going very well. I have met so many people who have shared thoughts and ideas. It has been sooo much fun and this is truly "A home away from home for me" and that is what I want it to feel like for all of my customers. I like to take the extra mile and be personable with them. Like a gentleman said to me, " I like the mom and pop shops, you can not find service at the big stores like you can here". Another quote from a young lady, " I love this shop, I love being here, it is like being home". I take all comments to my heart and special words like this mean so much to me. I think I finally found what I am suppose to do when I grow up.

Below I have posted some pictures of the shop. I will also be posting some of the creations of our samples, customers that come to visit and upcoming happenings. I sometimes am a little slow at blogging between running the shop, a household, kids, grand kids and you know all the things in between of everything else. LOL But little by little it is all coming together.

This is the front of Scrapping on the Go. We are tucked aways back but people still seem to find us LOl. We have tried to make it look inviting and the table and chairs do get used by the customers. They like to take breaks from scrapbooking and they will sit here and visit while sipping coffee.

Here are some pictures of the inside of the store. Lots of GOODIES! My fav is the corner with the old table. My primitive area. I just love that period of time.







More goodies! I will have to take some time and take some close ups of the samples that are in the shop for you all to see. I just seem to run of time


To see some more pics that I had posted on my other blog, just click here, http://olecrowscorner.blogspot.com/ . Our shop maybe little but we have a lot of unique items to offer you with a warm atmosphere with an added personal touch.
