Cruise Classes

I am in the process of getting ready to take a Scrapbooking Cruise...the first week in February is right around the corner...Yikes! I will be teaching a few classes on the ship and thought I would share them with you. Here they are:

I have always suffered with motion sickness from my childhood to adulthood. My friends are all taking bets on me...I have got to prove them wrong...I am planning on buying the patches, the bracelets, dramamine and whatever else it may take to not toss my "cookies".

Madame Samm

How Awesome Can a Fellow Crafter Be???

Woohoo! I surf the net and can't even tell you how I get where I go, but I found the most awesome person ever! Madame Samm....she is the coolest! We just spent a little over an hour speaking on the phone for the first time and I felt like we knew each other for a lifetime! What an wonderful person, so sweet and intriguing to speak with. She has a ton of experience in all different fields. Crafting, Creating and CAWFEE are just a few things we have in common. What a delight she was to speak with. She has such a charming personality and did I tell you how talented she is?
Well, she helped me with my blog and I am honored to have her blog posted on my list...please go check it out! She makes the most adorable dolls ever! You just have to check her babies out. I am so excited to be adopting one of her Aimee babies. I will post more info on the day that Aimee arrives. Aimee will have her own special place in my new craft room.

OMG!!! What the heck???

My computer has a mind of it's own....I was able to post, but why bother when I couldn't post any pictures!  What is a blog without pictures?? B O R I N G!!!  My settings were all messed up...gotta be those little computer gremlins messing around. ANYWAY! I am back...so much to tell...where do I begin???

Christmas was great! Got lots of AWESOME gifts! Al and I spent our Christmas week in Delray Beach~ what a treat! We hit all the different restaurants from Boca, Lantana, Boynton and West Palm...Yummy! Christmas around the world...a different cuisine each day!
Christmas morning breakfast on the beach at the Dune Deck Restaurant. Nice way to start the day...with Mimosas!!! There was even a Florida Sand rendition of a Snowman...see photo attached!

Well, I hope a fun time was had by all during this Holiday season. Wishing you the best of this New Year! Who'da thunk it...2010!

Christmas Gift Card Holder Class

This is a picture of 4 of the 5 projects included in my Tags and Bags Xmas Class at The Scrapbooking Depot.  The Ornament and the Stocking are Gift Card Holders, there is a larger gift bag that is not in this photo but you can see the tiny gift bag with tag at the bottom of the photo. At the top of the photo is a post it note holder.  There is also a matching pen to the post it note holder that makes a nice little stocking stuffer for the person who needs to write themselves notes as to not forget what they need to do that day or buy at the grocery store. I have made several of these in different patterned paper and have them decoratively sitting around in just about every room as I am always looking for paper to jot something down on.

Houses Swap Accordion Book Received

On November 20th I posted a picture of my Fairy Mushroom Village. Below is a picture of all of the Houses submitted for this swap. The hostess attached all of the houses so that they open as an accordion and are free standing. All of the stamps used are Cherry Pie Stamps. My Fairy House is the last one on the block.

 Getting back to my ART! Fun, Fun, Fun!!!

Thanksgiving is over..time to get back to creating ART!!!!

Back to getting the creative juices flowing!  I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving weekend and didn't empty their wallets on Black Friday.  Gotta get in the Christmas mode and start making my Holiday cards.  See ya at my craft desk!!

My House project

My Mushroom Village.   Fairies flyin' Everywhere.
10 members each created their own house pages. The swap host will bind all 10 different pages together as an accordion folded book and return them back to us...I am excited to see what everyone created.

Happy B'day to me!!!

 
 Just wanted to share a picture of my cake! Yes it is a Carvel Ice cream cake.  Aren't the candles just the cutest ever??? Well it was fantabulous and yummy!
