Have you heard??... the Anthologies Connection is coming this Spring!

Nita and I are so excited to announce that Anthologies is launching an online Kit Club called the Anthologies Connection! The first Kit will be revealed and available for sale on April 1st! For those of you who don't know, Anthologies is a fabulous Paper Arts store located in Hurst, TX (Dallas/Ft. Worth area). We pride ourselves in being the ultimate destination to shop, crop and create! We are currently searching for Design Team candidates for the new Anthologies Connection. Submissions will be accepted until 2/28/2010.

All interested applicants will need to provide the following:

1. Your full contact information: name, phone number, email address, and mailing address.
2. Tell us why you want to be a part of the Anthologies Team and where some of your work has been published.
3. Provide a full list of your current design commitments. This would include other Design Teams, Kit Clubs, Featured Guest spots, Instructor positions, etc. *We prefer those who are not currently on a design team affiliated with a retail store.

4. Provide us with a link to your blog and online galleries.

5. Send pictures of the following projects that have been uniquely designed by YOU:

• one layout

If selected, you will be contacted by Tracy Pounds, the Creative Director at Anthologies. DT members will receive an Anthologies Connection kit each month from which they will be expected to create 4 projects. More details will be made available once selected. We ask for an initial six month commitment which can be extended if both parties agree.

Calling all Scrapstasher's!

Well it is time once again for our monthly Scrapstasher Meetings! I have a fun project designed for you this month! ...a bonus project too! I have the list posted below. If you have any questions, you may email me at tracy@anthologiesbyme.com.

We currently have several on the waiting list, so if you reserved your seat and know you cannot attend, please contact the store so we can offer your seat to someone else. Due to the high demand for this class, in March, we will be having 4 class offerings. Please contact Anthologies at (817) 282-2622 to reserve your seats.

"What to Bring" List:

* one Tin Container similar to the ones I have pictured here...the one with the clear front is a Maya Road tin that originally had chipboard pieces in it. I thought it would be a great idea to recycle it for a different use. I have several of these. If you need one, please email me. I will mark with your name...first come, first serve. Anthologies has some of the small silver tins available for sale if you need one. They are holding them back specifically for Stasher's so just ask at the register and they will get one for you.

* 3 Printed Papers that have a Valentine feel to them or have colors that remind you of Valentine's Day.

*3 sheets of coordinating Cardstock. Each needs to be a different color.

*Variety of coordinating Ribbons/Trim.

*Variety of small coordinating buttons & brads.

*Your favorite border punches & flower punches. If you don't own any, you may use what I have in the studio.

*Coordinating Ink Pads such as "Cat Eyes" or dew drops to ink the edges of your papers with.

*Trimmer and Scissors

*Regular Adhesive, Tacky Tape, Glue Dots, Pop Dots, and Zip Dry or other liquid adhesive.

I will be providing you with a few other goodies related to your bonus project!...so fun....can't wait! I'm really looking forward to creating with you next week! See you then!

Make it a Beautiful Day!

Tracy :)
