yikes...long time no blog...
I spent last weekend at Craft Fancy in Arlington Heights, Illinois...
THANKS to Carol & Brian...your store is just AWESOME...
so comfy...so convenient...so organized...
there was wonderful food...wonderful shopping...
and even a surprise birthday cake...
THANKS to everyone who spent the weekend...making art!
you ALL did a great job!
we spent 2 FULL days making a fun mixed media art journal...
my crackled texture paste was a HUGE hit!
here's the art parts back cover...
and a closer peek at how cool the cracks look...
this photo doesn't show it...
but we added the translucent embossing paste thru the tree stencil to accent just the leaves...
love love love that raised effect...
yippee!
wow...you liked them as much as I do...
I LOVE the convenience & I love that there's no clean up or wasted paste & that the jars keep custom colored paste fresh...
hmmm...what else?
in my spare time, we've been making kits for classes...LOTS of kits...and shipping them & reordering supplies & reorganizing our basement class supply area...
and working on NEW things & testing out ideas...
more to come on that later...
I shared this art journal page earlier this week on

and now it's time to pack some clothes & SANDALS...hmmm...which ones...decisions...decisions...

I'm off to The Crafty Scrapper in Waxahachie, Texas to teach the same 2 day mixed media art journal...

You could accidentally not pack any shoes and then you'd have to buy some there. Your journal cover and page are both beautiful!

As ever I adore your ideas and inspiration and these two are stunners. Nothing ever fails with your stamps, stencils and inks! LOVE them. Jenny x
Both pieces are stunning, I love the crackle on the first, it just begs to be touched and your journal page is so, so beautiful.... Anne x
Woohoo!!! I'm happy to be making this soon! It's wonderful! It's going to be awesome spending time with you again! Safe travels!
Busy, busy lady! That's a good thing! I just received every re inker and so excited about that! Well except for Dandelion, because my fried Kris decided blue was not the new yellow! lOL!
Of course I also received more embossing paste!
I am telling you I have a major addition problem!
Have safe travels Wendy!
LOL! Addiction not addition. Well addition problem maybe? As I keep adding more and more Wendy supplies to my studio! LOL!
Wow! Two stunning projects. Hope you're having a great time so far.
Stunning back cover - oh, that crackle!! - and a beautiful page too... just lovely!

What a great class!!!! Making the covers was so much fun but then the pages gave us even more chances to experiment and be creative. Thanks for another wonderful class and making my birthday even happier. Being in class with you an ideal way to spend my birthday but the surprise cake made it even better.
Love it, have a great time in Texas.
I just got a call that there was one more space left at the Crafty Scrapper! Woohoo, I get to play with Wendy and crackle paste for 2 days!! Someone pinch me. When Paula Cheney visited last year, she observed that Texas women love their Gilded shoes. Hope you brought yours so you don't feel left out :)
Both projects look great! Wish I could see that back cover in person so I could see what's you're talking about. Maybe you could try to post a close up pic?
Love your journal covers! You are just a traveling machine lately!
Love the house!!
Wow, sounds like an awesome trip, have a blast! I love all your embossing pastes, I don't how I managed without them.
