SUDSOL BLOG TOUR

Welcome to the SUDSOL Blog Tour!   I have been a member of SUDSOL for LONG time....almost as long as I've been a demonstrator.  I always recommend this group to my fellow demonstrators, as many of us consider it our unofficial "upline".  You will find tons of samples, tutorials, class ideas, and plenty of ideas for growing your Stampin' Up! business.


SUDSOL - Your 24/7 Upline
One of the greatest thing about SUDSOL is the access to project tutorials.  I will be adding this tutorial to the SUDSOL website along with the video tutorial.  Both of them are available at the end of this post.


Legalpads
I shared these Jr. Legal Pad Covers on my blog last year as part of my series of articles on craft fairs.  With so many beautiful new papers in the Idea Book & Catalog and Holiday Mini, I thought it would be a good idea to freshen up my samples for some upcoming fairs.  I keep the designs very simple, so that these are quick & easy to make.  This project is also perfect for stamp camps and special classes.
