We misted, inked, stamped, grunged & even fragmented...

@ Scrapaganza in Davenport, Ia.

Don't faint...
I actually did take a few photos this weekend.

We started Friday evening with Maya Road's 4 inch binder class...FUN! Phew...5:30 'til past midmight...but everyone left with a finished project and inky fingers...
I like that!

The first class on Saturday was my studio 490 stamped, inked grungeboard/grungePAPER flowers...

Here's some of the girls hard @ work...
In the foreground are Lolli & Linda..
Lucky Linda won one of the doorprizes...which included the elusive GRUNGEPAPER...
yep...she squeeled!



The second class Saturday was the "use your scraps" fragmented journal.
We take 2 pages from Maya Road's 4 inch binder & make a journal that is actually USEABLE...

I told them @ the beginning of the class, that as many times as I've done this class...there has NEVER been an ugly one made...

SERIOUSLY... they were doubters...but in the end...they ALL agreed.

I didn't get all the journals...some of my photos were really blurry......

Here's the proof...and some inspiration for you...




A closer look @ these...




2 more...




Now I bet you're wondering about the cutie on the right in the next photo...





Here'a a better look...
This was made by 8 year old Emily...
she was for sure...THE CUTEST art chick there...


Very polite, very talented, VERY smart & oh so sweet.




I will NEVER forget this story...

When Emily asked if I'd like to look @ her book...she asked if I thought she should send a photo to TIM HOLTZ...WHAT????????
An 8 year old?????????

Boy, the fans sure do start young...

When I sort of laughed...
(because I thought her mother put her up to that)
she told me that she has "2 emails from tim already".

I smiled all the way home...


Well...all the photos so far have been wonderful...


The next is NOT...


Here's what we woke up to this morning..............



Looks like no new Easter outfit is needed...just a winter coat.
It's APRIL.......where is the weatherman????????
Who do I report this to???
GEEEEEEEEEEEEZ........



Come back tomorrow & I'll show you something very cool.

Tina took what could have easily ended up in the trash & made a wonderful framed piece of art...
it's Cool...very cool...


Stay tuned, stay warm... and...
Make ART!
