hello...still there? *EDITED!*



(I added a special SALE CODE at the end of the post!)

wow...
LONG time no blog...
Y I K E S!!

so what's been happening here?

I spent time designing new stamps, new stencils, new SiSi's & new mat minis that will release in a few months...
FUN STUFF!

I spent time designing new classes, 
focusing on using new products...
and my fav...
new techniques...

here's a little peek at a
"box full of art" class that's happening this year...
we'll alter the kraft box...
it has awesome metal corners on the lid & on the base...
making it quite sturdy & very fun to alter...




after the box is all changed up...
 we'll play with techniques & 
fill this box with art...

you can check the right sidebar to see my teaching/demo schedule & hopefully 
I'll see
 YOU
 later this year!

after the classes get designed, it's time to make kits...

lots of pre-stamping & die cutting goes on behind the scenes...
then kitting, packing & shipping to the stores...

and then...

we did the Great Lakes Mega Meet earlier this month...
we had a FABULOUS time & were super busy...
I got to see friends who come every year & I got to "hook" some newbies...
we had some gals,
 who had never used stamps or inks before...
they were really fun because they were so excited...
they were shocked it how easy it is...
I LOVE MY JOB!

hmmm...what else?

spring always makes me want to change up the decor inside...
freshen things up...
clean closets...etc...
every year the urge hits me like a ton of bricks...

 we enjoyed 3 road trips to find more treasures...
then it's time to rearrange everything inside the house & make room for the new stuff...
that for me, 
is almost as much fun as 
making art!


then I decided to take some time
 to enjoy getting the outside ready for summer...

we planted L O T S of flowers...

our entry looks like this...




lovely art from Mother nature...


 that's just the entry...
we have decks across the back of the house & several other spots loaded with flowers...

when shopping for flowers,
I have Z E R O willpower...
N O N E...
it's worse than sandals...

when I was little, my "reward" for eating dinner was going to look at the flowers with my grandfather, then picking a little special bouquet for my grandmother...
fond memories...
