Have you missed me?

Zanne — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 00:41:51 +0000

I know, I know. I have been bad about updating my blog lately. I have been busy, busy on lots of craft and work related projects! Was lucky enough to travel to Virginia Beach last month for Scrapaganza hosted by Beach Scrapbooks and Scrapadoodles scrapbook stores. So much fun and met alot of great new Scrapbookers.

The Internet Marketing free-lance work is picking up, which is a good thing! I have been able to delve into other areas of Marketing that I might not have before my lay-off.

I am actually running out of space for my photos, so I am off to find a backup source and share some new scrapbook layouts with you all soon!

Halloween Scrapbook Layouts

Zanne — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 16:34:32 +0000

It is so hot in Florida these past days…high 90s F with a heat index of 107 F, so I have been staying inside and catching up on my scrapbooking. I am almost two years behind. Here are some of the Halloween 2007 layouts I have been working on. Some of the companies products I have used is K&Co, Scenic Route, Crate Paper, Rusty Pickle, Basic Grey and more! These pages mean a great deal to me as we all would be part of the corporate lay-off from Wyndham, the same time in 2008.

My trip to Inspired Artist Workshop last month….

Zanne — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 23:17:25 +0000

It has been too long since my last post! Last month, I had the wonderful opportunity to be a Teacher’s Assistant to the core instructors at Donna Downey’s Inspired Artist Workshop in Charlotte, NC ! I also taught a mini-workshop called “In The Dog House”! It was alot of fun with a great group of people and a wonderful set of friends. I thought I might post some shots from my class and other teachers such as Paulette Insall and Jennifer Stewart! Please note the picture of the dinner is by Paolo Lilac, the Inspired placement is by Amy Preneta, all other pics are by Zanne Koller.

Back from CHA Winter in California!

Zanne — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 20:06:42 +0000

I had a great time at the Craft and Hobby Association (CHA) Winter in Anaheim. This is where all the craft, mixed media and scrapbook companies unveil their new products! My picks for great new products were American Crafts, Sassafras Lass, Pink Paislee, Cosmo Cricket and even though the booth didn’t get there in time: October Afternoon! I love the bold patterns of October Afternoon, they mix and match beautifully with any scrapbook papers and products from any company. I bumped into some talented people such as Donna Downey, Claudine Hellmuth and Ted from Stampers Anonymous!

I also had the opportunity to take a great class from Celine Navarro using some of the great products from October Afternoon at my favorite Scrapbook store in California, Scrapbook Oasis. I have uploaded some pics from the CHA floor and a layout from the class! I am also helping out Scrapbook Oasis and set up a Fan Page for them on Facebook. Please join this fun community! More great CHA photos coming soon!
