I am so excited about our January Creative Tuesday "Creative Class"!!!! It's called "So Many Smooches" and we're going to be making 5 fabulous projects, each showcasing a different technique that you can do with our Smooch Spritzes!!!!
Your class registration includes a full bottle of the Blushing Bride Smooch Spritz, and that's what you'll be using to complete your projects (and go home with the rest!)
Here's a close up of one of the projects — you'll actually get one of each of these darling Laser Cut Notes and the coordinating Blushing Bride Envelopes to go with them! They look so elegant but are SO SIMPLE to create with the Smooch Spritz!

A Love Note Message
I'm sorry for my lack of exciting posts lately!! I've been busy, busy, busy preparing for the Stampin' Up! Regional that is coming to Syracuse, NY. We have a big crew going, and I've been getting details together for them, making gifts, planning our special extra events around regional…. and of course working on SWAPs!! Needless to say, there hasn't been much time for extra stamping, and there really hasn't been the time to upload and edit photos! So there's my excuse!
But I do have something to share with you today. We had our Team Fabric Play Day a couple weekends ago, and I made up a bunch of little Valentine Gifts for the gals that attended. Here they are!
ALY'S HELPFUL HINTS: 
- These little jars are the same jars that I used back at Halloween Time for my Spooky Place Card Settings in this post. I just love working with them! They are sold at various wedding sections of stores to be used as wedding favors, but they already put the slits in the top of the cork for holding a place card setting. Instead of using it as a place card, for this project I used the cork slit to hold a little Love Note as a unique way to send some Valentine Love.
- This stamp set, priceless, is just perfect for Valentine's Day, though it can be used any time of year! I just love the style of flourishes and dots.
- I have been having lots of fun playing with grey papers, and according to a recent article I read in a decorating magazine, grey is the color of 2010! So I guess I'm on track!!! Using both Basic Grey and Going Grey together looks wonderful.
- The hearts were punched out using Raw Decor Element Sheets – refer back to this post when I made Christmas Ornaments using these sheets and punches for some tips and tricks on how to get it to punch well.
WHAT TO ORDER:
Priceless Stamp Set (115052), Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set (115370), Basic Grey Cardstock (108692), Basic Grey Classic Ink (109120), Going Grey Cardstock – in Neutral Assortment – (108588), Going Grey Classic Ink (103274), Real Red Classic Ink (103133), Pretty in Pink Classic Ink (101301), Pretty in Pink Cardstock (100459), Whisper White Cardstock (100730), White Decor Elements Sheets (114335), Basic Grey Taffeta Ribbon (109064), Pretty in Pink Corduroy Buttons (117681), Mini Glue Dots (103683) and Stampin' Dimensionals (104430)

For the LOVE of Scrapbooking!
Friday February 19th
6:30 – 9:30 pm
at Aly's Stamping Studio in West Irondequoit, NY
Non-Refundable Pre-Pay Deadline: February 11th
Here's a look at just one of the layouts we will create that evening (these pages are designed to go side-by-side so the second page doesn't have a title). I've also left room for journaling on the first layout, but haven't added it in yet. Just as an aside, scrapbook photos are very difficult to photograph. I did the best I could, but the photos just doesn't do these layouts justice! If you would like to see them in person before you sign up for the class, stop on by my studio at any time and I would be happy to show them to you!:
HEART BOARD BOOK SPECIAL CLASS OPTION!!!!
At Leadership Conference this past month, Shannon West gave a fabulous presentation that included this adorable OnBoard Brag Book:
I'm in the middle of working on my copy with Landon's photos, stay tuned to my blog, I'll post it in the next few days!
But I love this project so much that I wanted to offer this to all of you to make at the February Scrapbooking Class. This is a great option for if you don't want to make 12×12 layouts and just want to have a completed little Brag Book instead! Keep it yourself or give it as a gift!
This Heart Board Book does not have a separate class time, it is an option for the February 19th "For the LOVE of Scrapbooking" class. February 11th is also the Pre-Pay Deadline for this class.
