PP Flower Tutorial

This month’s Sampler Kit had some gorgeous Prima Flowers which inspired me to make some of my own. They are so easy and simple to make, here’s how to do it :-

1) Cut 4 circle in different sizes, each slightly smaller that the next. Then bend the circles to add depth.

2) Layer the circles on top of each other and stick together with glue dots.

Being A Woman (Layout)

Blending with Crackle Paint

February is here!! It's a very sweet month with a little love! Today, I'll be sharing my first project for this month which is a layout titled "Being A Woman". I think once a while, a woman needs to be reminded that she is a "Woman". This layout features the Domestic Goddess line by Graphic 45.

Tons of FUN but I need a nap...

well. this has been interesting. the level of insanity that is normally around me has been turned up to 11 for the past couple weeks BUT the end is in sight.

Irene Tan is headed back tomorrow morning to her home after teaching two fabulous, action packed classes. Her classes are a definate must on a bucket list. Right now we have Michael Strong teaching in the back. One of my all time favorite cardmakers and a super awesome personality to match. Once he's done, we're all headed out for a farwell meal of super yum Japanese. Tomorrow we have some errands to run around the SFO and then i can head home and get back to work.

a million miles later...

holly here and checking in with sore feet!

CHA is finally wrapping up for us. we have ordered and ordered and ordered and i cant wait to see the new product for the stores. so many fun new papers and tons of companies either new to us or completely new to the industry. i even found some time to take a book binding class from Jeannine Stien and i'm stoked on her book, ReBound and the book binding techniques i took away from her class. Expect some fun new classes at Memories Live On and even tutorials at The Crop Spot.

I have been so distracted by the Super Show and CHA that I have totally neglected the internets and everything else for that matter, but I'm back and totally full of fresh inspiration. Even though the time away from my family (yea, i've seen husband 3 days in january so far... nevermind he has a korea trip booked as soon as i get back from this trip...), CHA has been amazing. Maybe not has much hype and glitz and glam as some ppl say, at least not for me... but it was a great venue to get the latest and greatest for the stores and the sampler.

Speaking of, new challenge posting super soon and loads of inspiration from the sampler dt super soon so stick around!

now, i have kits to make for Irene Tan's upcoming classes (btw, she's awesome!) and some packing to do. i think i have over 100lbs of catalogs to take home...

sunshine and bunnies,
