Papaya Collage Class

Good afternoon, just trying to get a few things planned, my June card club and a new class using the brand new set Papaya Collage.

As soon as I layed eyes on this in the catalogue I knew it would be a favourite of mine. A tad vintage yet enough pieces to create various looks. It is a 7 piece set and this class includes the stamp set.....

Class date: Thursday July 5th  7:00 to 9:30

You will make a bag with three cards including envelopes

This is a pre order class, meaning you will take the stamp set home.

Cost of the class is $15.00 plus stamp set.

Wood $48.42 plus $15.00 = $63.00

Clear $35.99 plus $15.00  = $51.00

Please let me know if your interested asap, space is limited. 

If you would like this as a kit please add $7.00 to price, sorry but lots of work involved.   Joanne

What a lovely weekend

Good morning Ladies, sorry for a no post weekend, took the computer off my to do list and was outside most of the time.  Whew, the weather, gorgeous, although I found myself tiring fast with the heat, Old age?

Anyways, I did have a fun weekend, Saturday I went to see West Side Story with friends, had a great time, food, theatre and friendship, always fun. Came home and my house was full, Will stayed over, kids were home, stayed up late, lol.

Sunday and Monday I gardened, didn't get finished, oh well.

Here are just a few weekend shots.

Grant baby sat Will Saturday night and they found 6 little bunnies, so cute and friendly.

I just wanted to say THANK YOU, to the people that took part in the weekend sale!!! The Elegant bird dies are ordered and shipped. I will let you know when they arrive, thanks, so much, Joanne

Another new card

 

Here's a card I made for a friend, Jo

New Colours...

Good morning, so it was just over a week ago I received the new in colours and thought, hm, how am I going to work with these primary colours???  I will admit I was a tad disappointed, especially because I more than LOVE the colours leaving us..... BUT.... I had to make a few cards yesterday and I can happily say that they are growing on me, growing fast!!! whew!  

I went all out on this card and used every In Colour!!!

This is a brand new stamp set also, already a fast favourite of mine and I am planning a class with it. I feel you can use it for every occasion.

 

 

On another note.... Went to see THE FULL MONTY last night at Theatre Aquarius, A MUST SEE !!!

I have one spot left tonight for the garden stake class if anyone is interested, see you at 7pm! Jo

Scraps

Good morning, I love to use scraps of fabric, paper and now light grade aluminum on my cards. Here is one that was whipped up quickly and then decided to make the L and used it for Lindsay's birthday card.  I wanted to show the garden stake girls that you could use the aluminum in different ways.

Thought I would show you some of my lovely Mother's Day flowers, first from Jake and Kara,

And from Garrett, he didn't know what he was buying but managed to pick out my favourite, Tulips:) I was spoiled.

Lindz bought me a beautiful magnolia tray and matching napkins and Laura and Ryan a charm for my pandora bracelet,  forget me knot.... I am very lucky and was way to spoiled!

Weekend recap

Good morning, I hope everyone had a lovely Mother's Day.  I as always was treated to an awesome breakfast made by my kids. Grant started breakfast in bed when Lindsay was probably 2 or 3? and the tradition has carried on, not in bed, thank goodness but each year I am a tad spoiled... check out the goods.

Lindsay, chopping hot peppers for the potatoes that were awesome!

We need two pans of potatoes there so yummy, girls at work!

Laura got up at 6:30am to make these delicious strawberry braids!!! They were fantastic. Laura didn't actually stay for breakfast, she went to Ryan's family's feast. She left two for us and took two to Ryan's home, I hope they enjoyed them as much as we did.  I never mind sharing the girls with their other families, it's just what you have to do.

I'll post some flower pics tomorrow and we also celebrated Lindsay's birthday Saturday.

 

REMINDER, GARDEN STAKE CLASS THIS WEDNESDAY at 7pm,  JO
