FEATURE FRIDAY

Today, we are featuring the very talented Pam Conover.  I asked Pam to send me a paragraph about herself:

"I started scrapbooking about 14 years ago after my daughter was born. I quickly branched out into stamping, cardmaking, and other paper crafts. Besides scrapbooking family photos, my favorite thing to do is make mini albums and altered projects to give as gifts. I love the camaraderie that you instantly have with other scrapbookers and have met some wonderful friends through this hobby. Last winter on a total whim, I submitted an altered Frappuccino bottle/carrier set in a Michaels craft competition. I was thrilled when I was chosen as a contestant on their web-based series Craft Masters. It was exciting, but really nerve racking! We had no idea what we would be making until we opened our mystery box (keep in mind there were cameras recording everything!) So not only did we have to be creative on demand, we had to appear personable while we were doing it! Once I got into "craft mode", I had a blast. I didn't win the competition because I didn't "think outside the box", but I was so proud of the fact that I stepped outside my comfort zone and did something I never thought I would do! "

This is a picture of Pam with her "Craft Masters".   We are so proud of Pam for being chosen for this competion.  It was quite an honor!

Look at these cute, summery shaped cards.  That margarita one is just TOO cute with its unbrella and lime slice. 
Love this dog mini album and frame.  Such a cute puppy as well! 
THis is a beautiful two page layout that Pam created.  She did an amazing job. 

I hope you have enjoyed meeting Pam and learning about her.  It is always fun to meet fellow scrapbookers and learn about them. 
I hope your weekend plans include some time for creating and some time to come by the store and stock up on Creative Options merchandise at 35% off.   In addition to the 35% discount, if you spend $50 after the discount, you qualify for a free gift.   Don't forget about the sale bins...they are still out and it's a great time to save 50% on some wonderful products. 

SEE YOU AT THE STORE!
