Gotham City Stampers

This is one of my most favorite projects. I am just so thrilled with how it turned out. Sometimes I think that when I know who is receiving the art, it makes a difference in how I create. This canvas was guaranteed a great home-I made it for our annual Girls’ Getaway Art Weekend with [...]

Today I wanted to share with you some fun projects but also the awesome crafty time that we have at my classes in New York City! Several times a month I teach classes on scrapbooking, card making, altered goodies, jewelry…TONS! Sometimes, I even have amazing Guest Teachers that come to teach at The Mecca (my [...]

I love all things crafty! My dear friend, Corris, loves making soap and other bath products. I always love learning from her because 1. I know it’s going to be a good time and 2. the things we make are always goodies to make us feel wonderful. This workshop was NO exception! On the Spa [...]

Corris (you have already heard a lot about her and how amazing she is) celebrated her birthday in September. I spent so much time thinking of something perfect to make for her. This picture of us is one of my favorite-it was taken this summer at the Botanical Gardens in Wave Hill in the Bronx. [...]

I have learned to really reflect on important people and moments in my life. I asked Marty many times recently how I am able to stay strong during the most traumatic time of my life. Prior to the end of September, my life was in such a good place. I was in such a stable [...]

I have learned so much over the past month since finding out about my dad’s brain cancer. I have learned new medical information, things about the people I know, what is important in life and how to take care of myself in a way that I never imagined. There have been moments of wanting to [...]

One of my best friends in the world, Corris, celebrated her birthday on the 13th. She LOVES pink and adores cupcakes (who doesn’t) so I made this card for her. It features a kit from Swirlydoos as well as a super cute stamp from Hero Arts. I wanted to give a fun, cute look with [...]

This is another card that I made for my HOLIDAY CARD CLASS. My pal, Corris, was at that class and she LOVES pink! I made this card with her in mind. I knew she would love pink being the focus color of this Christmas card. I thought it was pretty fun and rather untraditional. I [...]

The Gotham City Stampers Meetup Group loves when Corris teaches soap classes at The Mecca. Today we made soapsicles that were beyond cute. Corris used a brand new recipe and some new products to create these yummy soaps. This is Corris’ new soap mold–bright pink, of course! She taught us an easy way to make [...]

Our Stampin’ Up! Team, The Gotham City Stampers, enjoys many events and outings together. We LOVE our GIRLS NIGHT OUT events! Corris set up this fun night of painting pottery at MAKE in New York City. This fun night was followed by a wonderful Italian Dinner at the restaurant next door–the name of that great [...]
