Bussy Bee Update!

What a fun but exhausting day I've had today!  After picking up Celine at her home, off we went to the Duke Energy Center for some scrap therapy! The CKC convention is in Cincinnati for the weekend and while today we shopped, tomorrow I am teaching my class.  We planned on spending two hours, so that I could go home and finish my powere point presentation for the class!  You never know when you are going to need those office type skills again!

So what is of such interest to Celine?  She really, really liked the Technique Tuesday class board.  I have to admit that I really like the color choices and techniques on this as well! 

However, we were only there for 2 hours, right? Well not quite, we were having so much fun figuring out everything that we both like and disliked that we stayed 5+ fun filled hours!

OK, I really need to get to bed... here is the picture of the little sun catcher who wanted to be a card and grew to be a mini-album!

Finally, below is the board that my class was publisized on just outside the convenion door! 

Thanks Pat for putting the board together.

My portion was a little bigger than she expected,

but she was gracious in letting me add my 12 by 12 portion!

Teaching Classes

Hi all, well it is official, I will be teaching classes again.  Yeah!  I've missed it, alot! I'm busy preparing two classes for Scrap, Paper Scissors in Loveland, OH and one for C-Shore Creations, Inc in Bellevue, KY.  Here is a short video showing the mini-book we will be doing at C-Shore.  I'm hoping to put kits for that minibook up on my Etsy store early next week.

Hope you Like it! You can order your kit on my Etsy shop now for delivery within three weeks! Or, you can order it already made!

Inspiration Journal

Please take a moment to view the slide show below which shows the whole book, Thanks!

A number of years ago, I put one of these together, only to have it stolen at a CKC Convention where it was exhibited as a sample.  It took me a while to gather up all the quotes and finally, when I read Melody Ross's blog I was inspired to make a new one.  I was looking for something that would have a bold, fun, and timeless look and found what I wanted in three of the 2010 spring collections. I used some Melody Ross Homespun Chic papers, clips and especially loved her sayings, TPC Studios Boho Blooms, and K&Co's Serendipity 12 x 12 Specialty Paper Pack.  It is amazing how those three lines flow together!

Over time this journal will get add ons, tags, pictures, journalling and will become more and more personal. This is a moment in time in it's evolution.

I can only hope that my inspiration journal/perpetual calendar inspires you! Like Melody Ross, I want to be brave!
