So much going on…

Sep 5, 2009

Lots of cre­at­ing and prepar­ing going on in my scrap­room. I tell ya it looks like a bomb went off I have so many piles here and there but it is a good thing as it seems to be the only way and best way I know how to create.

Here is a lit­tle run down of my cre­ative week… I fin­ished the sec­ond project for my “Home­spun Inspi­ra­tion” work­shop. Those that have reg­is­tered now have access to the sup­ply list. The project tuto­r­ial will be posted on the 15th.

Just about have my “All Hallow’s Eve” work­shop ready to go. All the pho­tos have been taken and the tuto­ri­als have been writ­ten and sched­uled. Just tweak­ing a few things here and there.

And this is excit­ing, I will be teach­ing at Crop-Paper-Scissors in Waco on Sat­ur­day, Octo­ber 10th. I am presently putting together two classes. One will be a hol­i­day ban­ner using a Maya Road Scal­lop Tri­an­gle Ban­ner and Webster’s Pages pat­terned paper and the sec­ond class is one I have had in mind for a long time. It is my “Vin­tage Sam­pler” class.

The “Vin­tage Sam­pler” class will be lim­ited to 24 peo­ple and is a one of a kind class as I am using lots of vin­tage items that I have been pur­chas­ing and sav­ing. I can­not wait to teach it as it has four really unique projects. In this class you will cre­ate a minia­ture house from a pat­tern I cre­ated that resem­bles the old Putz houses of long ago, a minia­ture wand accented with a vin­tage milk bot­tle cap and ger­man glass glit­ter, a minia­ture bas­ket cre­ated from an old alu­minum jello mold and accented with minia­ture vin­tage flocked flow­ers and then a pen­nant cre­ated from a page from a Maya Road Scal­lop Tri­an­gle Ban­ner, a vin­tage bingo card and other embell­ish­ments. I will post sneak peeks once I have every­thing completed.

And one more thing… you will want to check out Jenni Bowlin’s Design Team Blog on the 15th (actu­ally you need to check it out every­day as it is full of inspi­ra­tion) I will be the Guest Designer that day and have a super cute tuto­r­ial to share. I think you will really want to make this cutie.

Below is the list of sup­plies used if you believe in me that much and want to pur­chase the sup­plies ahead of time with the project sight unseen. I really think you are going to want to make it.
