I'm Teaching Again

Yep..you read it right. For those of you that enjoyed my classes I am going to teach again. It's a really really cute(well I am biased) Bo Bunny Valentine mini book class. And I'll be teaching it at the Making Memories store in Columbia, Illinois on Monday night, February 12th. I believe 6pm. So come and join me!

It's a neat book in that it opens up so that you could essentially display it on a mantle, shelf or table. Folds up to a 6 by 6 size and well it's cute! You can make it about your sweetie, pet, children or friend..doesn't matter. The cost will be $20 and if you're interested call Making Memories at 618-281-1991.

And here's some pictures of it..

Polymer clay and crochet

I have been messing with polymer clay alot now. Making my own buttons. When you make your own you can match any thing you crochet or knit. They work great for free forming to give your item an added dimension. I took this and kicked up the granny square. These are not buttons but pc that I put holes in prior to baking then crocheted around it. I was pleased with how it turned out.

Do you believe it???

Do you believe it? I am back! I haven't posted since my computer went into the shop on December 15th and I have really missed it. Especially since it was over the holidays! It's amazing how dependent I am on my computer for everything! Thankfully it's back and seems to be running beautifully so you should be able to look forward to lots of regular updates. I did a little tweeking on the blog and added a slide show on the right with some of my work. I'll update it as I have new things to show.

I've been busy working on new projects for Paper Salon for the upcoming CHA show. Lots of very cool things that you'll have to sit tight and wait to see. I also joined a new monthly kit design team called Sugar Dumplin. Be sure to click on the link on the right and check that out as well.

I've made lots and lots of projects over the Christmas holiday and here's one of my favorites I made using the Basic Grey Fruitcake line.




I made lots of those letters for a friends Xmas party so I got my fill of those and wound up making actually 3 of those trees..all different though. I still have one to make but am giving myself a break from Xmas things for a bit.

Let's see Peso is doing just great. We're all crazy in love with him. He's a good dog! Smart, loving, snuggly, smart, fun, playful, good listener and so darn cute it's really not fair to the other dogs!hahah Here's a picture from our Xmas pictures of Connor and Haley with him. I don't think he was too thrilled with me on the Santa bandana thing but oh well!


Everyone else is doing great..I'm wishing school was out already and spring was here! A girl can wish right?!

I'll be back soon with an update! I promise this time it won't be a month!!
