had a great day yesterday at my LSS doing a day long workshop on making 10 cards using only 1 piece of PP.
(i have the template if anyone is interested in it)
we used the papers from "designs galore" - just GORGEOUS and a nice strong paper to work with.
now anyone who has ever received a "shazzie card" knows that cards are not my forte so i decided to bite the bullet and attend the workshop.
aside from the fact that i love hanging out at the shop with julie and cheryl and "miss julie", the teacher, it was a good opportunity to overcome my obvious creative block when it comes to making cards.
it was a great day - even managed, although maybe not mastered, the art of stamping which is another "block" i have. i used the gorgeous AL clear stamps (you know the ones you adhere to the perspex blocks)
i would LOVE LOVE LOVE to get me some of them.
love the fact you can see where the stamp is going on the paper.
maybe that is my "block" when it coms to stamping...???
*SHRUG*
lots of laughs and giggling - i sat at the smaller table where there was only 5 of us so we got through our cards really quickly and had lots of time to chat.
such a wide diversity of ladies where at our table and yep....at almost 43 years old, i was the baby !!!
kendal, who sat opposite me, is a high school woodwork and metal work teacher - a rarity in the education system i am sure, but she was lovely and so interesting to chat to.
margie who sat beside her, was almost 70 and she was such a funny lady. she had us in stitches - and the other table wondering what was so funny - most of the day.
so here are my creations in all of their glory.
PLEASE...!!!
no laughing from the peanut gallery
have a wonderful sunday
look for the things in your life that make you smile
~~ and remember, let those you love, know that you do ~~
