I love having specials.  Ok today's special is.... wait for it...drum roll please....  We are going to kick off these BLOG SPECIALS with a PARTYYYYY....  So here it is a party in a box.

Monday, January 05, 2009, 3:05 PM  Wow, New Years came in full speed! I have so much to tell you all I don't know where to start.  I know it has been ages since I have sent out a newsletter, and well it is going to be just a little longer.  We have several things in the works for 2009. Soooo, keep your eyes peeled for that newsletter because when it hits your inbox you are going to feel your computer shake with excitement.  Newsletter sneak peak: (I am a terrible secret keeper - so I will just tell you a little). We have a new Clothing and Gift SBI Product Line the link is on the website. We also have some serious specials coming.  We will be mailing those out as we get them. We are going to start clearing out some of our scrapbook stuff, so watch for some great deals. We have added another division to our company besides scrapbook, rubber stamp and gift supplies but I cannot tell you about that just yet.  It is very exciting though.    Anyway, I have to go add some more clothes and gifts to the website. See ya later....  PS:  I will be updating the website events this week too...   http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000037 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000037 What's Up.......... Tuesday, December 16, 2008, 9:40 PM  2 days in a row I have blogged. Woohoo.  I am even going to try to get a newsletter out today - what ya gotta say about that... :D  I need to tell you about Ronda over at Beyond Scrapbooks.  She is doing the cutest page kits with our SBI Paper Piece Kids.  If you love these adorable kids, but you are not a stamper, check out here website and see what she has going on.  We embellish and assemble the paper piecings for you, no fuss - no muss just a great look.  www.beyondscrapbooks.com  Check out her version of the SBI Chef in Training kids kit, you will love it.  I also love the Birthday Kit she has that features our SBI Birthday Bash kid.... :D  Today Example is a just a simple technique used to do a quick scrapbook album for another last min. gift.  We used another border from the Posh Line (Oh yes, you bet we sell these check out the rubber stamp section).  All you do is ink up your stamp with a versa mark and go over the stamped image on your cardstock with Pebbles Chalk (of course we sell this it is in the tools of the trade section)... :D Try it, you will be totally amazed at how fast you can make an entire album. Talk about cost effective, you get a bunch of different borders in these sets and you can make several different albums using each of the borders.... BONUS you get to give the mini albums as gifts, and keep the stamp sets for yourself (these are secretly my favorite types of gifts to give - what!!! I like to give and receive... :D  One more thing I love about doing these quick stamp albums is that I can do the background pages quick and simple and then spend any additional time I have on embellishing.... (which is of course my favorite). A few versions might be to do each page spread with a different border from the set but the same color chalk, or different color chalk for each page spread and the same border.  For an extra umph - I added some clear crystal lacquer over the top of the swirls.   http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000036 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000036 What's Up.......... Monday, December 15, 2008, 9:32 PM  You too can make this album in under an hour and a half.  What a great last min. gift idea.  We also had a die-cut title (not shown in this picture) that said Cookin Up Fun... http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000035 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000035 What's Up.......... Friday, December 12, 2008, 2:15 PM  Since I have updated the blog.  October and November seemed to fly by, we were on the road all the time.  So here it is 15 days into December and I am finally catching up on everything and managed to get jury duty in too....  I wanted to get this really cute scrapbook page posted for you to see.  We used the border stamp from Posh (Dee's stamp company).  But even better than that is how doggone cute our SBI Chef Stamp Kid looks on this page.    PS:  I made an entire album like this in under an hour and a half.  Ok, I did take a few shortcuts like using index cards for the recipe instead of doing the dotted line around cardstock.  I used liquid applique for the batter instead of stencil paste.   http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000034 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000034 What's Up..........

I was at a different show out of state when these were done, so Karen did the MNT and Mom (Joan) did the narrating (Karen had lost her voice).  I just wanted to say they did a AWESOME job, and I appreciate the effort they all put into this.  Thanks for getting these taken care of while I was on the road, my SBI Team Rocks..... http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000025 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000025 What's Up..........

Monday, October 06, 2008, 2:27 PM  Well well well, here I am in a sweatshirt (yuk).... What the heck happened to summer... You know what this means don't you... Now it's going to get cold so we will be forced to stay inside which leaves you no choice but to Scrap (yeahhhhhh), and shop the website, and go to crops, and have an At home with SBI party... what!!!! SBI at home.... Yep! It's true, when it's too cold to leave home, we will bring the fun to you.  In the next few weeks you will see some changes around here.  Our famous MNT's are going on the road.  You will love the new catalog and all the ideas and suggestions for the products that come with it.  The grand opening for At home with SBI is set to coincide with our FIRST EVER BREAST CANCER BENEFIT. We are going to host a crop to raise funds for Breast Cancer and in exchange you are asked to donate just a mere $10.00 (all of which will be donated).  In exchange for your donation, you will get to come crop the night away.  Of course we will have our store setup at the show in case you need anything.  We will be doing free hourly make-n-takes as well.  This will be a very simple crop with nothing more in mind then getting you out for a good time, while raising a little money for Breast Cancer.....  The Grand Opening for At home with SBI with take place that night as well.  We will have our new catalogs there, and will tell you all the great things you will receive just for hosting a party...  Go ahead say it....  But Teresa so many of my friends don't scrap.....  AaaHaa! No need to worry about that we have those friends covered too.  In addition to offering a catalog full of the products you know and love (or will soon come to know and love) we will be offering a line of Pre-made scrapbooks for those who choose not to scrap.  They will love having you share your scrappin and stampin passion with them, and you will love being able to finally get them involved.    Ok, hold your horses.... I know you want to know when you can schedule a party and when the crop will be. Well standby. I will be announcing the date, time and place very soon.  But you know me, I don't like to give you all the answers at one time I like to keep you coming back..... Otherwise, this whole article is for nothing and nobody would be reading it right now, but you are so hang tight.  By the end of this week I hope to have all the details wrapped up for the Charity Crop.    A few things to look forward to at the crop..... 1.  Free MNT during the event. 2.  Onsite store. 3.  Just a small donation to get in. 4.  A schedule of all available dates to book an At home with SBI party. 5.  A few games that I will clue you in on between now and then.  ewwwww it;s gonna be funnnnnn.... http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000023 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000023 What's Up..........

Tuesday, August 19, 2008, 2:13 PM  Sold Out - We have sold out of the SBI Shopper while we were in Novi this week. Don't panic there are more on the way. whewww....  Wow what a great time we had at the Heirloom Stamp Show in Novi this week.  I must admit it was nice to drive home and sleep in my own bed after a show for a change.  We met some really nice customers and vendors, and cannot wait to do another of their shows.    Karen has been hard at work putting together lots of new card samples.  Mom is on break (re-doing a room in her house). I am starting to get some time to put together some scrapbook page samples using some of our stamp collections.    We have a new line of stamps we are getting ready to send off to be manufactured.  I am excited to release these.    Well I better get back to the Wild Child scrapbook page I am working on.  This one has been fun I am using crackle paint, and a few of our favorite stamps, and sets. I will post it in the gallery as soon as I am done.    I have also recently put together an Easter page and a Dressed for Success page.  Nothing fancy, but I think they are cute none the less. It doesn't always have to scream wooohoo.... (i keep telling myself that).... sometime simple is better.  So watch the gallery in the next few days I will get the new samples of cards, and scrap pages posted.    BTW: Watch for a newsletter to come out soon, with some really fun games... (uhh huhhh not signed up for the news letter huh -hurry run don't walk to sign up for the newsletter - you will want to be a part of the game). http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000020 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000020 What's Up.......... Wednesday, July 23, 2008, 6:32 PM  Were back from CHA (Craft and Hobby Association) summer retailer show.  Wowwwwww.... do they have some fun new stuff coming out on the market. We cannot wait to share what we ordered with all of you.  While we were there we placed orders for all kinds of new tools, papers, and products. We had such a great time.  Mom, Karen and I all went.  We knew you were counting on us to see and learn everything that we could to bring exciting new stuff to you this year.  So just because we like you all so much, we got up and shopped every day. Yep, everyday.  It was a big sacrifice (wink wink), but we think your worth it......  Ok we are all pretty exhausted, not to mention sore, but who could tell with all the excitement and adrenalin we had.  Here is my favorite part.  We were fortunate enough to meet several celebs.  We met Claudine Hellmuth, Tim Holtz, Suze Weinberg, and Mom met a few others I was not privy too (I was placing orders - someone had to work).. :D  Anyway, here is my favorite part.  My Mom never likes her picture taken, but I walked by the Ranger booth and there she was standing elbow to elbow with the one and only Tim Holtz.  She was so cute, I stood next to her for a second and she leaned over and with a huge grin said take my picture next to Tim Holtz.  :D bahhhhhbaahhhhaaa.... it was too funny.  My Mom doesn't get star struck, but Tim Holtz is pretty talented.... :D  So I thought I would post the picture here for you all to enjoy.  Ok now, let's get down to business.  We learned some new techniques we will be sharing with you and we have lots of ideas for new MNT's and projects.  Not sure when our orders will be rolling in,  but I will keep you updated as they do.    Keep an eye out on the website, we will be updating the store as merchandise comes in.    Well I better get back to updating the website gallery pictures.  Speaking of which, the SBI design team will be getting together this weekend, creating some more pictures for the gallery. http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000019 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000019 What's Up.......... Thursday, June 26, 2008, 3:42 PM  Ok there is nothing like subjecting yourself to a little humiliation.  It is amazing how much pride you can swallow for your business.    So I needed a demo on how to use the Masquepen.  I learned alot, and this first video is not so great, but it is a start.  I am already working on another video to demo it, especially since I have an idea of what worked and what didn't.....  Take a look at it, no fan mail please... :D  On another note, we are going to be showing up at some stamp shows this fall.  As soon as I get my approvals, I will post them on the website under Events.    Hope everyone is having a fantastic summer so far..... take lots of pictures and this fall we will get busy scrappin them. http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000018 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000018 What's Up.......... Tuesday, June 03, 2008, 11:02 PM  Well, I know I should not wish my life away, but man am I glad May is over...... That was a little busier than I even expected.....  I am taking a little time off, just giving myself a little breathing time for a week or two, and then I will be updating the website.    I am going to call June my creative month..... I am going to focus on getting some new techniques and new projects going, and then updating the website with all the new things I learn.    I'll let you in on a little secret.... I am soooo excited to get the chance to sit down at a table with all my fun tools, and play for a while..... ohhhh I can hardly wait.  I'll get back to you soon, and let you know how it's going. http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000017 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000017 What's Up.......... Friday, May 16, 2008, 5:47 PM  Has it really been this long since I have posted here? I can't believe how fast time goes by when you are on the road......  It has been busy, but the summer is looking like it might give us some rest... :( or :) not sure how I feel about that yet.    Well if you haven't been around in a while you might not know that we have switched our SBI Kidz paper piecing's to SBI Kidz Stamps, and WOW! they are being lovingly purchased by many of you.  We have slowly started to veer over to stamping products.  Don't freak out yet, we are still carrying scrapbooking merchandise, and we will still be doing scrapbook shows, but we are adding in some stamp shows, and many more stamping products....  We have always showed you how to use products from the stamping world, and it seems like we just keep adding to it.  We thought maybe it would be a good time to break into the stamp world.    I hope you are all signed up and getting the newsletters, because there are going to be lots of new special (some killer deals) going out in the newsletter.  Pay close attention to them, there are some hidden prize entries in the newsletters too.    It was great to see so many of you at Mega Meet.  We have been so blessed to meet so many wonderful women, and love to be able to catch up on what's happening with you all.    One more thing to add, before I go clean my office (yukkkkk).  If you have used some of our stamps, or have used some of our products and would like to share your project or layout, just email me a picture and I will post it in our gallery.  We love to brag for you (since most of you are too humble to do it yourself).    Ok, well I guess I gotta go clean, so I will touch base again soon in the newsletter and here on our website. http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000016 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000016 What's Up.......... Friday, April 25, 2008, 10:58 AM  Well I haven't updated in a while, we have been on the road alot lately visiting scrappers - here, there and everywhere.....  It will be nice having events close to home the next couple of weeks.  Mom and Karen have been working really hard getting the new make-n-takes ready to showcase the new Masquepen Product. This is so much fun to use.  I really like some of the things we are discovering to use it for.    ON A PERSONAL NOTE:  I just wanted to say it has been great to see so many familiar faces, and see friends we haven't seen in a while, and friends we see often.... Scrappers are such awesome people.....  PS:  Robin we wish you all the best on your move and we hope to see you in VA next year.... http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000015 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000015 What's Up..........

It's not just anybody either, we are lucky to have a very creative and talented designer who will be assisting us with our SBI Make-N-Takes, as well as  our product examples.    Welcome Aboard Karen Trometer, we hope you are as happy to be here as we are to have you.... :D  By the way, Karen is a Michigan resident.  So here is some more exciting news, she has agreed to come help us at the Make-N-Take booth during Mega Meet.......Come by and say hi...... :D  Yes! Mom will be there too. (so no need to email me about Mom, I know she has a lot of loyal fans out there... :D) http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000009 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000009 What's Up.......... Monday, March 31, 2008, 8:47 PM  I cannot wait for Mega Meet. I know we have some really cool crops before that, but we have been spending so much time working on new Make-N-Takes to go with the new products we will be showing off at Mega Meet, that it has almost become an obsession for us.    I promise to focus the rest of this week on the April Crops we have comin up.  I will be in TN with Beyond Scrapbooks next week. I am really lookin forward to hangin out with Ronda, we always have a good time, and brainstorm tons when we are together. So I hope Mom and Karen are up for more new MNT ideas when I get home.... :D.  Have you signed up for Camp Yet?

Tuesday, February 26, 2008, 10:54 AM  Well I was looking for some people this morning and couldn't find them so I decided to google them.... :D When I did I was surprised to find that these people did not just pop right up. Instead I ended up with a bunch of people with the same name that had nothing to do with the people I was looking for.... So yes, I couldn't resist I had to google myself (oh stop I know you have done it too)... Anyway, here comes the kicker when I googled my name I found in the first few things that popped up one of them was a lady with my name that is looking at serving 10 yrs in prison.  Uggghhhh! So then I did what any of you would have done I panicked! What if people are looking me up after a scrapbook show and see this article. ahhh... So I hope people aren't googling my name and finding this lady, and if they are I hope they are reading this so I can set them straight.. http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000007 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000007 What's Up.......... Monday, February 25, 2008, 9:17 PM  Oh how I hate doing all this paperwork. I am so bad at keeping organized and I always end up spending so much time at the end of the year doing this junk. Then I promise myself I will be better next year (haha).  Now here is the sunny side of the story.... Apparently when I am working mindlessly sorting through receipts and putting piles of papers together my subconscious is thinking of some new scrapbook ideas to try (Honestly I think it is just looking for an escape route). Anyway, it worked. So I had to leave my paper work and run to my craft table. Low and Behold some really cool and really fun stuff started to pour out of me (I think my subconscious was keeping me creating so it wouldn't go back to the paperwork) some fun new mnt ideas are coming together..... So I know what your saying to yourself right now Is there a point to this story..... Hmmm nope not really just didn't want to go back to my paperwork...... Sleep well everyone. :D http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000008 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000008 What's Up.......... Tuesday, February 19, 2008, 8:19 PM  Well as things start to wind down a bit from the last few reallllly busy weeks, we are going to start updating the website.  We are going to continue to add tricks, tips & ideas, to help you continue to use all the fun stuff you purchase from us.  We will also be putting the store back online.  Last but not least, we are going to start listing some of our personal scrapbook items in the garage sale here on Scrapbookers Buzz.  Be patient with us while we start this process.    Just a reminder, we are always reachable via email if you can't find an answer on the website...... :D  I'm going to rest up now.  We had a blast in Virginia but it wore us out..... 1,000 croppers/students  and over 800 make-n-takes in one weekend will do that to ya. Really got to send out a HUGEEEE THANKS to MOM (Joan) she was awesome this weekend and never missed a beat.

Mom (Joan) and I just wanted to thank all of our new friends in Virginia for showing us such an awesome time. What a great group of women.  We didn't just have great weather while we were there, we had great scrappers to.  We had a blast with you all, and are hoping to be asked back next year. http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000004 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000004 What's Up.......... We always have such a great time with our Waldenwoods croppers.  Thanks for another wonderful year.  We are hoping to see you all around at some other events, so we don't have to wait a whole year...... :D http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000005 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000005 What's Up.......... Tuesday, February 05, 2008, 6:32 PM  Well hello there...... Glad you could stop by. I know it has been a while since I last updated, so here I go....  First things first - we have been asked by alot of our new show and crop friends to get the store back up and online. Ok we will have the store back in action by the end of this week.    Ok now onto some other cool stuff. We have been having a blast..... 2008 is starting off to be so much fun for us. Mom and I were at the Taylor Great Scrapbook Event show this month and wanted to send out a special THANK YOU to everyone that helped with the show and working in our booth. Without you we would have been going nuts.... So THANKS, Thanks, thanks....  We just finished our favorite crop of the year at Waldenwoods. We have such a great time there. The crowd is awesome and just as enthusiastic as Mom and I about learning new techniques.... :D  We get a few brief days at home and then it's off to Scrapbowl in Virginia.....  So that's about it this week.  Ohhhhh before I sign off, I wanted to tell you after the store gets up this week, I will start work on the new tips and tricks part of the website. Have a great rest of this week..... http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000003 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000003 What's Up.......... Monday, October 29, 2007, 8:33 PM  Well what should we talk about? I know lets talk about scrapbooking crops. No let's talk about scrapbook shows. No let's talk about cool scrapbook products, yeahhhh! Let's do that. So what's your favorite scrapbook product. It could be anything, paper, stickers, trimmers, adhesive, stamps, whatever you seem to fancy right now....  Lately mine is liquid applique.  I seem to be stuck on that alot now. We started using liquid applique on Christmas Tree die cuts for our Make-N-Take at shows, and I just haven't been able to stop lookin for uses for it. At the November show coming up we are going to be doing 4 different Make-N-Takes.  Joan (aka/Mom) will be on one side of the booth doing her 2 and I will be on the other side doing the 2 I come up with..... I can't wait for this show. I get to sit and play with my favorite things all day.  I'm curious to see what she is going to be doing too....  So what do you think? What's your favorite scrapbook product (at this moment anyway).... :D  psst... I did the hair on these SBI Kidz paper piecing's with liquid applique...... :D wooohooo.  Your turn..... Go ahead.... Don't be shy... Tell us... http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000001 http://www.scrapbookersbuzz.com/sbiblogpage/index.html#bv000001 What's Up.......... Yeahhh Ft.
