1/29/2013 class @CP2

Today's class is an easy treat box decorated for Valentines day. 

I made a bunch of these for the holidays for my nieces and nephews,

decorated for the specific holiday and gender,

 I enclosed a check in the little shopping bag and candies in the box part.

They were a hit!

So here's the Valentine version, great for kids, grand-kids, nieces or nephews,

anyone who enjoys a sweet treat!

 Just the usual class kit today

including a black edger.

Enjoy *Ü* Susan

Today's card, the technique is all over the Internet and magazines. 

I did some modifications which I will explain in class,

but feel free to Google it and see what people are doing. 

Tim even mentioned it yesterday in an interview.

The technique is the chalkboard effect.

I love black & white so this one was right up my alley!

Usual class kit including

scissors

black & white edgers

also if you have

frayed burlap distress inks

foam & applicator

white color pencil

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Here is the Heidi Swapp file folder class. There are so many possibilities with these projects, this is my 4th folder. I will bring them all to class to give you some added ideas. I am writing up instructions with measurements. I will also publish a list of items you need to include in your class kit.

1/15/2013 class @CP2 Snow Day

I either spoke with or left a message for all the regulars,

 class is cancelled today.

Although the sun is out, it's so cold, the ice and snow in 

my neck of the woods isn't melting.

So stay in, be safe and warm.

We will celebrate Katie's birthday next week.

Barb will be gone for the next two weeks 

so we can celebrate it upon her return in February.

Enjoy your day,

Susan *Ü*

1/8/2013 class @CP2

Wishing each and everyone a healthy and happy 2013 

for you and your families.

I have had a wonderful start to the new year and have the inky fingers to prove it!

My sister arrived on Thursday and we haven't stopped. One of the highlights of this trip is that

my sister, my daughter, a friend and I spent yesterday in Santa Fe taking Dyan Reaveley's class. 

What an experience, and we go back today for another class. 

If you are not familiar with her put her name into you tube and you can see her in action!

OK, so enough about me, here's the project we will be doing in this Tuesday's class.

Of course we need to start the New Year off with a brand spanking new calendar.

This came out a little dark for my taste but I will have plenty of ink colors for you to choose from.

along with your basic class kit, include

paper trimmer

scissors 

foam tape

January Birthdays 

(probably will celebrate on the 15th)
