Winter cards

 Hello Everyone,

          Welcome !! Thank you for stopping in. Summer is winding down (it's a wonderful 72 degrees outside), the widows are open and I am off work. So far it's a perfect day ,right? I have been in my craftroom all day, taking advantage of a sleeping puppy and a cat who seems to have forgotten I exist. No interruptions. I have been doing all sorts of cards but my Winter cards are for my next class at our local shop!

        Now , I’m not a winter person. (Gimme sun, heat and margaritas and I’m a happy camper)However, I am aware that there are those of you who LOVE that white stuff that comes around and enjoy designing winter cards. Also there are many birthdays in the winter months and many of us struggle ( sometimes) to come up with WINTER themed cards. 

 

      OK ,

     with all that said,  please enjoy what I created for winter themed cards !!!

Stop by for more inspiration and conversation 😀

I'm back to teach a few fun classes using the same stencil for both classes!!

   Hi all,

    It's been a while (long while) since I've been at Maco's Paper to teach.

I have fallen in love with all things PINK FRESH STUDIO and with that said I'd like to introduce you all to the beauty and versatility of their products!  That's why I've chosen a few unique card folds using a set called BEAUTIFUL BLOOMS. You will be using the Beautiful Blooms layering stencils – Pinkfresh Studio from that set for both classes in different ways. The stencil is necessary for you to have for the class and when you sign up for the class you will get a percentage off of the stencil (great for you). 

      So, sign up soon, Beautiful Blooms Vase & Envelope with Lisa Nelson -- July 13 - Marco's Paper (marcopaper.com) and if the class is sold out, I will do a second class! Can't wait to come back and share what I love to do. Hugs to all, see you soon!

In this class all flowers will be stamped and embossed (powder) you just need to use inks of your choice and your stencils to complete the flowers!

Woo Hoo It takes a DT call

   

It takes a DT call to get me off my butt and join the crafting world again. It's been a long journey for me this past year and a half. I went from a very Part time creative job and Design teams to a very demanding full time job!! Not an easy feat when you have never worked like that before. Now that I have that part of my life  relatively comfortably handled it's time to get my creative life back. I am starting to color again, design cards , do vinyl work , even tried my hand at knitting ( that was interesting lol) I begin pottery classes with my granddaughter soon and Jewelry soldering and design next month ! 

So here is a sampling of what I've been up to
