Vacation Time

Hello all my crafty friends!!!

I hope that you are having a wonderful summer and enjoying the season!

Most of you know that I had planned on taking the month of August off.....well that turned into July as well.  My creative mojo really needed some time off......and I needed some time to catch up on a few things around the house and my work room.

I have talked previously about my internet provider and what a headache it has been for me to shoot and upload my construction videos.   I did everything I could to give this company the opportunity to fix the issues but I finally just gave up.  Good thing too....I finally have a provider that seems to be working great for my needs.  I'm hoping to get caught up on video that you have been waiting for.....I do apologize for that.  It has been such a hassle on my end but I finally found the end of my rainbow!

I will be UNAVAILABLE.....notice the all caps there.....August 14th-23rd.  If you need anything, please be sure to contact me before the 14th ie......video links, patterns, hints or help.  I will be back in town on the 23rd.

Nathan and I are taking a road trip......with no clear destination in mind other than the back roads out of town and into Montana.  My car is in the shop getting all dolled up for the trip!  LOL!  I am really excited to be able to just go.........

My next class at Hobby Lobby has been posted previously...it's on the8th.....just check the posting before this one. 

Hope to see you in September!

Vintage "Scrap" book project

Hello all my crafty friends!!!

Summer is here...I think.....sure can't tell by the weather.  I do so hope it warms up a bit more soon.

I have had so many of you tell me that you want to take a class but are unable to due to summer time stuff going on...vacations, ball games, etc.  So I have decided to take the rest of the summer off.  I will be working at home for the month of July and August.

I do have a class scheduled for the 8th of Sept.  I will be revisiting the Vintage Scrap book that many of you wanted to do but were unable to schedule the time.

Be sure to reserve your spot and I will see you in September!

Altered Book.....Vintage Style

Hello all my crafty friends!!!!

I had a great time making this new project.  I was able to use up a TON of scraps to create something really awesome!  I love the way this one turned out.

I bought a book at Dollar Tree to make this.  Doesn't get any cheaper than that!  A word of caution...make sure to check the language inside your book.....LOL.  I didn't do that and by the time that I actually noticed the bad language it was too late!  I was able to cover most of it in one way or another...... Just be sure to check your book.

Be sure to reserve your spot....!

Tag Mini Album

Hello all my crafty friends!!!!!

My latest project was designed around the new phone printers that are on the market.  You may or may not be familiar......they print the cutest darn things you have ever seen...just 2x3 and they are adorable!  Fuji Instax, Sprocket, Zinc...just to name a few.  They are designed to print the photos off your phone......this is one item that is on my wish list!

So this project was designed with that size in mind.....I hope you like it! ( I know that a few of you already own these cute little printers......I guess I need to drop a hint to Nathan for my b-day!)

Double Sided Box Project

Hello all my crafty friends!

I know....I know...I have been MIA for a bit.  Honestly, just needed some down time.  My mojo gets worn out around the edges sometimes.  I have found it's easier to just put the scissors down and walk away until I feel enthused again.

The design of my next project was built to be used as a 50th wedding anniversary box.  I think it has a very engaging presence without  being a book.

This is not difficult at all to build....the steps are really quite simple.  Cool..

This class will be a bit longer than usual and seating is limited...FCFS!  Be sure to check the Hobby Lobby tab for the supply list and all the details.

Vintage "Scrap" Book Project

Hello all my crafty friends!!!!

Up next at Hobby Lobby is a vintage scrappy book project.  This is really fun to do....and super simple.   I used a bunch of leftover papers from previous projects.  This is a terrific way to use up all those leftovers!

Be sure to check the Hobby Lobby tab for all the details....and I hope to see you soon!
