Classes Are Up!!!!

Classes are up at the For Keep Sakes site!!!! Come and join the fun!!!! In both classes I will teach you to use the metal from Ten Seconds Studio that is sooooo easy. It lets you look like a pro with little effort. I KID YOU NOT! You will love this stuff.

The only tools you need to make these is a sanding block, a stump, and a mold. The stumps and molds are provided for you. Please bring a sanding tool. And I'll demo all the other tools from my collection, and you can try them!

We'll make at least 2 pins and a slider necklace to hide little treasures in. Decorate the pins with ribbons and dew drops and jewels. The sky's the limit with your imagination on this project!!

The Maya Road book has 11 sides to decorate. You can bring little pictures of family to put in it. Or just use the flowers and stamps to adorn the pages along with the jewels, chipboard, and buttons that come in the kit. Lots and lots of stuff to fill the book.

Can't wait to see all of you again!

Necklace ReDone

Took some time tonight to redo a "necklace." I don't know what else to call it...."way big something you could hang around your neck."

It was fun. Lot's of Grungeboard and Idea-ology pieces. Ink of course. And wire. I had done this piece earlier, but it needed more. You know how that goes. So I added 11 more things, and some white dots. Just for kicks!

Two more days til CHA!! But who's counting?

Missing in Action

I really haven't forgotten how to blog, but life has been a bit hectic here lately. Seems the DH hurt his back and we've been going for x-rays and chiro visits, then all the other back to the surgeon for the revisit. Blah, blah, blah.....Storms and patching the son's brand new pool after the high winds flipped his trampoline on top of if.....5000 gallons of water standing there without the ring of air that's supposed to hold it up!!!!! SCARY!!!

Everyday life in the Midwest during the summer!!! You gotta love it!

So, here's a bit of a house book from Maya Road that's going to be in the class. Don't you just love that cute paper! But the white pen marks really made it soooo much brighter. And you don't have to be able to make a perfect circle, it looks better when you don't. HA!

Good news on the journals....they've sold 6 of 8. Not bad for a beginner. I really would like to go up there to Galena and shop for the day. But the Mississippi is not being very kind to the river communities. Mud is running through my SIL garage in Rapids City. And the kids in Moline had a river running under the basement door and down the steps to their garage....nothing compared to Keithsburg, Burlington, or Cedar Rapids, but not any fun either.

That's all for tonight. As Tigger would say....TTFN.....Ta Ta For Now!
