I am back in Mansfield, Ohio!  I think you all already know that.  One thing you don't know is that the next card class workshop will be shared with Mary Jo and myself.  She will be holding the evening class and I will hold the afternoon class.  Karen has to work that day so she asked me if I would take over for her.  2 cards will Mary Jo's and 2 will be mine. Then classes in May will be all mine.  I will make a schedule for you and the store soon. My first class in May will  May 14th  1:30-4pm  and 5-7:30pm.  I am looking forward to seeing you all again.
     I am excited, this Sat.  I will be going to Akron with Mary Jo to see this years Stamping Expo/Convention.  I have forgotten what its real name is.  Hope to get a lot of ideas and maybe buy a few things,  Take care and God Bless you, Laura

One of the other cards we did was an never ending card.  You probably have seen this before. From the first card you see when opened, it will open to the next.  Open that,you will see the next and so on till you are back to the first again.  I never did this at a class before.  Although I did try this before at home some time ago. Too much work to do at a class I found..

Well I am here for probably the last time till we are home.  well maybe.  I hope to post a few cards we have done at the last 2 classes.  Here goes trying.

 Outside & Inside

 

These are this past week cards.  I didn't get post them before class.  What do you think.  No one posted on my previous post, probably cause no one is looking.  I hope all is going well with all of you. We are fine here,and very much enjoying the lack of snow and cold. You are welcome to come and visit.  On March 23rd, I am hoping to go to a sale in Lakeland at a store called Violettes Scrapbook and Stamp Store. Linda told me about this, customers set up tables with stamp and stuff they want to sell.  She said there are almost too many to see and reasonably priced.  Good reason to come visit. Miss all of you, take care, Laura

Hello again Dear Friends!
/These were the cards done at my workshop today. Everyone was pleased with them.  Had 7 come to the class.  The Butterfly card was inspired  from a card Linda Shuffert sent me this week.  Of course I could'nt do it completely like hers.  Didn't have embossing powder, same paper  but it is similar.  Thanks Linda for the beautiful card.  I hope you didn't mind my copying it.

A friend here, who came to my card classes ever since I started them here and usually sat next to me in our Art class passed away a week ago last Sunday.  She was a very talented crafter, retired school teacher and was only 62 yrs old..  She will be missed!

My love to all of you.  Laura

From Sunny but not so warm Florida!

Here I am, Surprise!  Most of you have probably stopped looking.  It is Monday and I am ready for my tomorrow class.  I do need to double check that I have everything and then pack it up for tomorrow.  I miss all of you!  If all comes tomorrow I should have 9 or 10

I will try to do this more often but we have had some internet issues.  Lately I cant even get on Yahoo.  Keep tuned in!  

     Thanking all of you for attending my card workshops this year.  I am so blessed to have all of you and your support.  I am looking forward to some time away but I will definitely miss each of you.  Please keep in touch.  We will be home early Dec. to celebrate Christmas with family. I hope to attend Karen & Mary Jo's workshops while home.
     I also want to Thank the evening class for supplying a cake  and having a going away party.  The cake was wonderful and was so thoughtful.  I also enjoy our after class eating out gatherings. So handy having those fast food places near.
   Thank you Mary Jo and Karen for taking over the classes till spring.  I hope all will support them and all the hard work they will need to do.  My Love to all of you.  I will try to keep posting so if I am slow to do so, don't give up on me.  May God Bless you all and keep you safe, Laura
