Clipper Street Junction

Featured Instructor this Week...

So you all know we offer many classes here at Clipper Street, but I thought it would be fun to have you all meet our Instructors and get to know them a bit better. We are very fortunate to have the BEST group of Instructors and we are very proud to have them teaching at the Store! So this week, I would like you to meet Tobi...Tobi is an amazingly talented papercrafter and she does it all. Our Copic Blending and Shading Expert and a stunning stamper, who also enjoys creating layouts and other projects. Tobi is a member of several Design Teams, including Technique Tuesday and has had her work published in Papercrafts and featured in online galleries, as well.

1. I am married to Ian and a mother to an adorable 8 year-old monster named Phoenix.
2. I LOVE my job! I am a high school choir and band teacher. You can ask my kids, I love my job so much it takes centre stage in most of my dreams!
3. I have a couple of degrees, my first being a Bachelors of Jazz Studies majoring in piano and voice. I also trained as an opera singer and classical pianist, but decided to focus on jazz for the last 2 years of my degree. My second degree is my education degree that I needed to teach high school!
4. I took a few years off of university to be a gigging jazz musician, and during that time I went to school to be a makeup artist for print (magazines) and tv/movies.
5. I am Canadian and I live in greater-Vancouver .  I would love to live abroad and teach in another part of the world. I don't know if that will happen any time soon, but it's a dream. 
6. I started making cards about 3.5 years ago. I was an occasional scrapbooker and thought I knew what stamping was all about.. BOY was I wrong! I have been utterly and hopelessly addicted ever since. 
7. Besides card-making I will sit down and watch my one or two TV shows I have time for (House and Biggest Loser) and play Wii with my boys and my brother online. (We play Super Smash Brothers Brawl.. It's awesome). 

So tell me, was that TOO MUCH INFORMATION?? Lol..

Tobi has two wonderful classes running for our Nov. and Dec. calendar. Whether you are a Stamper/Card Maker or a scrapbooker we think you will LOVE these classes.
