guilty.....

Once again I am guilty of trying to cram too much into a class.  I just want to make sure everyone gets their moneys worth. We did run longer and we didn't quite get the lid made for the last box.
But I think everyone left with new packaging ideas and projects.  One of the best things is all the sharing of ideas for using the projects. 
They became ornaments, jack-o-lanterns, Easter eggs and even shadow boxes.  There was so much creativity going on....I loved it!

Next week is Framed and yes I will have more ideas for using the basic pattern.  And I know all the class participants will offer even more.  There may still be a few spots open. I guarantee you will get your moneys worth and more!!


 If you are planning to attend, just send me an email or comment below and I will send more info.

oh, I did check out the artist trading coins:  usually 2.5 circles so they fit into ATC folders.  Other than that, anything goes!!

box in a card....

these have intrigued me for a while now.  I had some time before packing everything up so I decided to give it a try.

and another....

a little gift box sits right in the card.  This view may help:


so cute and easy, too.  I'm all set for Mothers and Fathers Day now!  Well, I have to fill the little boxes.  And some Hershey nuggets should do nicely.

And here is a project I will be working on for a few days.

it may be a class in the fall....

And one more book to be added to the trunk sale in a few weeks.




I still love Jenni Bowlin paper!
