Christmas Crafting on City TV

So one of my favourite parts of being in the crafting and photography industry (other than hosting tropical vacations like Crop and Cruise!) is doing regular TV segments with an assortment of people and products!!!

This week we got to play with Jill Belland and Christy Riopel at Foundations for the Future Charter Academy with these crafty students...

Jill is always great to work with as a host and this time she brought along another beautiful lady named Kristin who is training to be TV host so we let her practice on us throughout the morning!!  She also did great so be sure to watch for her in the future :)

So we played and crafted with Westcott Trimmers, Stix2 adhesives, Harmonie and Kiki Art papers, a ton of stamps, papers and these 3 main tools...

The Bind-it-all machine from Zutter is a fantastic tool for binding a wide assortment of projects!!  Check out what Christy Riopel designed using this machine...

An advent book... 25 little envelopes to hold special somethings leading up to Christmas!!

 Next she took a bunch of old Christmas cards and "recycled" them into this fun mini-album!!!!

Zutter also sells Cover-alls that go all the way up to 12x12 seen here... they come in Black and White and are perfect for decorating (this one I simply attached a 12x12 layout made with all Kiki Art products to the front and voila!!!

A close-up of this layout leads us to our next two fun tools we played with...

The Marvy Border Punch allows you to do 8 different beautiful and substantial borders on cards and up to 12x12 in seconds!!!

The I-Rock tool allows you to apply the bling to projects and cards and even fabric and wood in seconds as well!!

 Here are a few of the cards and tags we created using the Marvy Border Punch and the I-Rock...

A huge thanks to all the students from FFCA and to Christy, Jill and Kandi for helping us pull this all together for a super fun morning of crafting :)  See below post to find out where you can purchase these great tools and products!!!!

I will try to post the video from the morning real soon!!!  Meanwhile, Merry Christmas everyone!!!!
