Tree Book Class


I made this Christmas tree scrapbook for the Red Bee for their Christmas display and there was a lot of interest in it, so it has become a class. Just Bring your supplies and I will help you put it all together so you will have a cute Christmas book to share with family and friends. I will also supply some embellishments and ribbons for you to use. Here are the details.

desert

We went out to Anza-Borrego for the weekend for some riding. That's me (second from the right), Emma is in front of me in the red helmet, Henry is in the yellow helmet and Preston is in the white helmet. I love going out to the desert and seeing how God makes landscapes. It was a full moon out there, and in the morning it was huge and white and just sitting above the hills. I have a hard time being creative out there because of all the dirt, but it's nice to take a break,(just for a bit).

Crush

Well the softball season has almost come to an end. It has been very fun for Emma and a real learning season. She is moving up to the next age group, so the new rules she has learned will help her in the spring. I made this scrapbook for the team mom. I used one of Elsie's albums and lots of ribbons.

Give Thanks




I am thankful for so many things. I am thankful for my family and friends especially and for the creative gifts God has given me. Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I can't believe it's here. The holidays are upon us. Now the crazy shopping madness begins. I think the creative need will help me stay balanced and not get caught up in the holiday madness. Looking forward to celebrating the holidays in the creative mode.

Party Hats


I just got some of those cone party hats at Target and I had to try and make some altered ones. I have seen some really cute ones on the internet, and wondered if I could make some too. These are my first two attempts. The green fringe is from Michaels, and I used two sided sticky tapes to stick it on. More to come.

Art Class Pics



Here are a few pics from my art class at the ACSI convention. We had a lot of fun and I think it went really well. Thanks ladies for taking my class. Hope we can do it again next year. Let me know if you took the class and any comments you would like to share.

pics to share



I am off to the convention. I haven't taught my class yet and I'm already tired. I stayed up late last night getting ready. I had a few minutes this morning to check email and blog. These are just some random pics I took over the weekend. Emma's trophy has a turkey on it, so cute. Another egg carton art that I am sharing today and this cute litte house was one of the auction items at the red bee. I can't remember who Donna said made it, but I just loved it and had to take a picture of it. I love the BUTTON card roof. Am I on a button kick or what?
