321 Stamp: Launching Creativity

Color Coach: A lesson in color theory

Now this sounds way too much like school -- but it's fun to learn about color! I love my Color Coach -- a nifty set of cards that help me match up my great Stampin' Up exclusive colors. There's a two-page pdf with some basic color theory to help us get more out of our coach so I wanted to share the download here.

Sale-a-bration is what Stampin' Up! calls our biggest sale of the year. From today through March 31 you get a free item from our special brochure for each $50 you order (before shipping and tax). I wanted to jump on and share the link to the Sale-a-bration brochure over in the right column. It's right under the great Occasions Mini catalog link -- and you can find supply lists as well for the project samples in all of our catalogs. Enjoy and SAB bonuses apply to online as well as in-person orders! I'll be back with some Valentine project ideas soon -- I promise.

Rube Goldberg: A different kind of creativity

My husband shared this amazing link with me. It's an amazing kinetic artist in Brooklyn who creates Rube Goldberg machines. This is a video worth watching for a laugh and a reminder that there is art and creativity in everyday things. Enjoy!

December was a roller coaster month with some family emergencies that limited my time to post ideas. I hope to get some things photographed and return to the world of blogging very soon so thanks for hanging in there and Happy New Year.
