Feb 7th class

Hi Everyone,  I sure do miss seeing all of you.  Thank everyone who has sent me cards.  Linda I used your card to inspire me, although I did make changes as to losing some  of my die cuts..  I hope you dont mind.  My class is tomorrow and this week I have 16 coming (to one class).  these are the three cards I have ready to make.  Still have 2 more to come up with.  Nothing has changed,  I am still doing things at the last minute.  Take care, God Bless you all

Hi Everyone!

I tried a couple days ago to scan cards from my recent class,  but for whatever reason wasn't able to.  Some days just dont work!  I will try again but probably not today.  Had a great class this past Tuesday.  Had 11 in attendence,  Thanks to one of my attendees who has come since I started this with no previous experience.  She is a natural.   She got to get the first group of 5 started on one card while I started a group of 6 going.  After that I could help both groups most of the time.  It seems when one person  needs you, it snowballs and several need you.  Everyone seemed pleased with the cards.  So far I only have 6 that signed up for the next class.   Some people are only here for a short time so dont get to come back.  I pray all is well with all of you.  I do wish I could bring you all here to spend time with me.  Take card and God Bless you all!

Jan Card Class

Hi, I held my first 2012 card class yesterday.  Had 4 come.  Everyone did great.  More people come by in the club house and say OH I wanted to do that but forgot about it.  I have been using all my supplies for and extra $1 fee, but I dont know about this.  Yesterday, I went there with 5 roller tapes (they were in various amounts of use)  before we got to the last card we totally ran out.  I had to run my bike home and pick up more adhesive ( like the pink type).  I am glad that we live fairly close to the club house.  I have sort of forgotten how to attach my pictures to this but hpefully it works.  Brain is going fast with all these old folks around.  Ha  Miss all of you!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Dear Friends,  I hope your day was special.  It was a beautiful day here. 
We had dinner here at our resort at the club house.  Turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, & gravy was provided.  Everyone attending brought a covered dish.  There was a feast of food.  I made 2 pumpkin pies and cranberry salad.  My family all came into Mansfield to spend Thanksgiving together at my oldest daughter Barb's house.  I really missed being with family,  they say the first year is the hardest.
     I held a card workshop this past Tuesday.  3 of the 4 came back this week, one went home to NJ and wont be back till sometime in Jan.   I will have a new attendee at my next workshop, but will only have 2 coming unless more sign up before then.  I think after the first of the year when more snowbirds arrive there should be more in attendence.  I do miss all of you, my dear friends.  I am having a hard time getting back in the swing of things.  I am thankfull right now for the small attendance.  I almost wasn't ready for that class.  I hope you are enjoying Mary Jo's workshops.  Please support her if you can.  I would love to see any cards made.  Take care and God bless you!

Found them!

Oh by the way,  I  had a free make-it-take yesterday to introduce my card making class here at the park.  My first class will be next Tuesday.  I know of 3 who will be attending.  They had never stamped before and do not want at this time to buy any supplies.  So they will pay another $1 to use my supplies.  Hopefully I can get more to come! 

Hello

I have 2 cards to share.  One is a download that my neice had on facebook.  I thought the little girl is so cute.  I colored her in with my bic markers and a copic color, also used a copic blender.  I dont know if you can see the dots on her shirt.  I made dots with the copic blender.  Also the Christmas card was an idea I saw somewhere so I applied to my my stamps and colors.  I hope all is well with all of you.  It you see the other girls would you tell them I am making an occasional post of this site.  I know Pam has viewed the site.  Anyone else?    I had a problem finding where my scan of my cards went.  will try later.

Testing

Here is a few cards I have made.  I never have tried this on my laptop so this is sort of a test.  I hope all is well.  It is great here.  Well I didnt line them up well on the scanner but I did manage to get them posted.
