Mystic Paper Design Team...

We are so proud of our Design Team!

It is just amazing what they create every month. It's fun to see what they can do with a little bit of product. Its great to see how supportive they are of each other, way to go ladies! Please visit their blogs for more photos and to see what they have been up to lately.

These projects are amazing and they are great ideas for holiday gifts. Now is the time to get all of those gifts created and if you can, you really must come in to see these in person. The photos just don't do the projects justice.

Here is what they have done recently~

Lindsey created this adorable vintage baby photo book, ornament and 2 scrapbook pages using a Crafty Secrets Paper Pad! There are so many papers in a pad and they are packed full of different patterns you really can do a lot with them. Add some embellishments and voila... gorgeous!


Patty came up with this cute little vintage book using Melissa Frances' Believe papers, one of our Cavallini Christmas sheets and some sparkle! Who would've thought to put this combination together? It is just the cutest little book ever.


Sheri has done it again with this paper bag book using Cosmo Cricket's Cogsmo line. She added some cute little embellishments along with photos of tiny boys and there you have a quick Christmas gift for Grandparents, Cousins, and Aunts & Uncles!

Yasu made this beautiful page using Creative Imaginations papers and stickers. She was really creative with cutting these papers, it looks like a lot of work but well worth it!


Another wonderful page by Yasu using Baisc Grey papers and embellisments...SWEET!


Thank you MPDT for all of the incredible talent you share with us each month. Keep up the great work.

Distressed About Distress Inks?

Have you ever wondered about this versatile product? Is it sitting somewhere in your studio untouched? Do you want to achieve more with it? Want to learn the Ranger Ink way? Come and join Mike for a Distressed Ink session. In this one hour session you will be introduced to several master techniques for shading and blending, piece edging, aged crumbling, non-crumbling, photo tinting and more. Mike has just returned from becoming a certified Ranger U instructor from Ranger Inks where he was taught these techniques from Mr. Ranger himself - Tim Holtz. This class is limited to 10 students. All supplies will be provided for you but, if you have your own Non-Stick Craft Sheet and Ink Blending Tool bring them along.

Mike will teach 2 sessions this coming Tuesday, November 4th from 6:00 P.M. to 7:00 P.M. and from 7:30 P.M. to 8:30 P.M.
