September 14th meeting

Here's a couple of fusible web projects I found on flickr to get you inspired--the pink inchies by grrl+dog and the ATC's by csgebhart.

First of all I want to say welcome to possible new member Angie!  Hope you will join us!

Hope to see everyone at the next meeting Monday Sept. 14th at the new Creative Stamper in Florence at 6:30pm.  

Please bring your finished laminate chip from last month's project for show and tell!  You can bring an ATC using any technique from the past for trade.  And this month will be the final summer 6x6 art to exchange.  

We will be doing the Fused Fibers project on pages 68-71 in Bernie Berlin's book.  Please bring fusible webbing(roll or sheet form), yarn or decorative fibers, assorted embossing powders, silicone craft sheet, iron, and scissors to the meeting.  Did you all watch Susan Pickering Rothamel's demo at Stampaway?  She was using dicrofibers from USArtQuest and  making some very beautiful art pieces with it.  Her website is: http://www.usartquest.com/

Or you can watch her using them on a webisode here:

Please decide if you want to order out food or bring something to share for the October 17th retreat-we will finalize plans for the retreat at the Sept. meeting.

Please send me supply lists for any projects you might be planning to teach for the October retreat so I can get them posted here!  Carla will be teaching wrapped wire fiber jewelry and monoprint/watercolor on plexiglass using stencil type stamps.  Sandy will bring a small paperbag book for everyone at the retreat, and Beth will bring supplies for boiled babies. Maybe you all could bring some samples to the Sept meeting so we have some idea of what we will be doing at the retreat.
