Monday, Monday...........

Love this Michigan weather......... hot one day next stormy and cooling.  But I am very thankful that is all we have to deal with.  My heart goes out to those who's lives were lost and those effected by the tornadoes  yesterday.


Here are a couple of the layouts I did for  The Happy Scrapper .  Also check out the schedule for all upcoming classes.  "Dates to Remember" is scheduled for June 8th at 6:30pm.  The class fee is $33.00 which includes all the supplies for this book.  All you need to bring is your cutter, glue and basic paper crafting tools.

Back Again.....


Last Saturday I taught  "The Steampunk Book".  The gals were amazing, a little overwhelmed, but very happy with their books.  I know they are still working on them.  I had a great time in class and look forward to my next class which will be June 8th.

Dates to Celebrate is the next book.  There are pockets and places for photos and pages to write down birthdays and anniversaries.  Of course you could use it for anything you wanted.  I used a line of paper from My Minds Eye, another line of paper that I love.  So come on into The Happy Scrapper and check it out.



There are several fun books in the works so keep checking back.  Now don't tell anyone but I'm actually going to do a page layout.  No fainting please!

Sneak Peak......




OH here it is........my new book!  This class will run in May at The Happy Scrapper.  We will be setting the date this week.  This is a large book with a lot of trim (most of which is vintage) and detail.   Of course I used the wonderful  Graphic 45 line of paper Steampunk Debutante.    I had so much fun with this book I hope you enjoy it too.  

Off to play............

April......... but where is Spring?

Back again...... I know about time.  Ran my "Spring Book" class last Tuesday.  It went so smoothly.  There were 9 ladies  who all did fantastic work.  Thanks for taking my class.  I wish all classes could run that smoothly.  

I have been busy working on new classes and going "pickin" with Cass.  We have done a lot of running the last few weeks but found some great stuff.  Lace, ephemera, books just to name a few items.  

My next class at  The Happy Scrapper will be "The Birthday Box" (also know as an Explosion Box)  on April 28th at 6:30 pm.  The class is $20.00 which includes all the paper, stickles and printed material  for the project.  You will need to bring your basic tools, glue and pop dots. I hope to see you there. 
sorry about the side view.........


 

My next project "Steampunk" (using Graphic 45 of course) will be finished in just a few days......I am very excited about the response that it has already received.  I look forward to sharing it soon.

Off to play...........

Snow Day!

Sorry to say we felt it best to postpone the class for the Valentine Book.  Due to the coming storm.  As soon as a new day is picked I will post it.   The only good thing about this snow is maybe I will hunker down and start a new book.  
The Game book is done........all done.  I will be posting more pictures and will be working on a date for the class.  If you have any interest in this class please let me know as it will be a small class with only 6 or 7 spaces. 

Stay warm........
