Ideal World TV in the UK

Recently, I was given the opportunity to go to the UK to be a guest on Ideal World and Create & Craft TV. Yes, TV!! Not video, but real LIVE TV. I was so completely nervous and was so sure that I would say something crazy to embarrass myself and Bazzill. Luckily, once the cameras started rolling, it was easier than I thought. Click on the picture below to be directed to one of the Ideal World/Bazzill segments.  Once there, click on "watch video".

For more videos, go to www.createandcraft.tv and scroll down to the Bazzill Basics Paper logo.

Xyron and Bazzill are Dino-Mite together!

When Beth & Julie from Xyron asked me to be part of a video featuring our two companies, I was so excited.  From start to finish, it was such a great time.  Check out Xyron's adhesive products and Bazzill's Dino-Mite collection.

Win it before you can buy it!

All day, January 29th beginning at 6am, at the top of every hour, Bazzill will reveal a few new product lines available. Send an email during the release hour and you could win a collection of the products shown. Email your name and address to: contest@bazzillbasics.com and include the code word shown with each reveal in the subject line. The random number generator will pick a winner and we will ship you the collection as soon as it arrives in our building. You can only win once. Winners will be revealed on the blog January 31 and receive an email notification.

Are you ready for the next Bazzill swap?

          
             
 

What's a swap?  It's the act of trading something.  In this case, we’re trading handmade Valentine greeting cards using Bazzill's Love Story Collection.  Create ten hand-crafted cards using Bazzill's Love Story Collection.  You only need to design one card and make 10 of the exact same card.  Then, when the swap is complete, the swap coordinator will return one of your originals and nine other cards made by swappers like you!  You pay the postage to get your cards to Bazzill.  Bazzill will pay the postage to get them back to you.

What is a swap, you ask?  Well, straight from the Bazzill website, the definition is simply the act of trading something.  We're trading handmade greeting cards.  You create 10 identical cards and send them to Bazzill.  Then, you wait for 10 unique cards to be sent to your home.

Inspiration Unlimited Sneak Peek

Time is flying by so quickly and Inspiration Unlimited is a little more than a month away.  I'm so excited to share a few more photos of my Bazzill class project.  The colors are fun, the product is plenty, and there are lots of hidden places for journaling.  I'm so looking forward to seeing everyone soon!

 
 
 

Inspiration Unlimited Class in September

Today is the day that Inspiration Unlimited posted a sneak peek of my Bazzill class product.  I'm so excited to be teaching at this event in September.  Teresa & Ginger are awesome and I'll be teaching with some very talented ladies.

How lovely, how divinely sweet, when Inspiration & Bazzill meet!
Album, paper, embellishments, too.  It all means tons of fun for YOU!

My class project is a heart-warming 8x8 album using Bazzill's newest Divinely Sweet collection.  Inspired by Amanda Herring's wildly-popular fabric designs, the beautiful palette of colors are perfect for any occasion.  Filled with interactive pages, hidden journaling and fun techniques, this album is sure to be a keeper!

Here's a glimpse of the product used in the album. 

 

Check back again soon for more snippets of the project!
