Oh so Soft...

Flower Soft that is.....I've been playing with this stuff for about a month now, and I can honestly say that it's alot of fun seeing what you create with it. For those of you who aren't aware, Flower Soft is basically shredded foam, that comes in different colors, and allows you to embellish stamped images, as well as die cuts, layouts, etc. There are quite a number of colors, and they are adding to them all the time. The company itself is based in the UK, but the product is readily available here in the U.S.

I'll be teaching an intro class at Personal Scrapbook this weekend, and we will be creating 3 different cards using the product. Here is a sample of one of the cards.


If you're interested in learning more about this product, please join us in class. Until I chat with you next time, I hope you have a RIPArts kind of day!!

Inquiring minds apparently want to know what I'm currently working on....so I'll fess up....and these are not in the correct order, just typed off the top of my head...

1) Disney pages for our upcoming trip
2) Disney recipe swap
3) Treasure Box Club pages with March kit
4) Class samples for Personal Scrapbook
5) Class samples for The Crafty Scrapper
6) Class samples for Remember When's Retreat
7) Class samples for Googly Eyes

Whew....does that sum it up, or what? :)

Anyway, here's a sneak peek at part of one of my samples...


Until next time, I hope you have a RIPArts kind of day!!

Oh Boy!!

Yes, I have 3 more classes that just booked. I see that my April is beginning to fill up fast....

I'm excited!! Why? Because I really love to teach. That's why!

So, what did I pick up in April? Check out my calendar over to the right....

Also, did you know that Tracy has her new Treasure Box Club kit ready to ship? It's sooooo much fun....Fun & Games, that is.... :) If you haven't done so yet, go by her website and check it out. If you really want a great value in a kit, you really need to sign up for her kit club.

Here are a couple of layouts that I did with the February 2011 kit. I hope you enjoy!!


Until next time, I hope you have a RIPArts kind of day!!

What in the World...

What in the world happened to February? It came and went without so much as a wave goodbye. Wow!

Anyway, I sit here today, working out some samples in my head for my upcoming classes.

My next class is at Personal Scrapbook in Allen. It's a Flower Soft class.

After that, I've got a couple of classes at The Crafty Scrapper in Waxahachie. I have a COPIC class, as well as a card class using new stuff from Inky Antics. Fun stuff, trust me.

After that, I will be finishing up my samples for the classes at Remember When's Retreat, during the first week of June. Can't wait to see everyone again.

We're also working up some more Soldering classes and some PMC classes as well. This should take us through the Summer.

Of course once we enter Fall, we'll be on our way to WDW in Florida! We'll be attending Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party with our baby bear. Our friend Melinda will also be joining us. We're really looking forward to vacation.

All in all, I hope the months slow down a little bit...time if flying by all to swiftly.

Oh, as I sign off for now, I'll leave you with an image of some of the goodies I got this weekend.

I got a Magnolia Doo-Hickey; some MFT dies, and the Tim Holtz Mini Rosettes. Time for some crafty goodness.

Until next time, have a RIPArts kind of day!!
