I am so excited...

I will be bringing you my very first class! Your Scrapbook Stash and I are teaming up to create a jam-packed class packed with artsy tips and techniques!

I will be using the new WANDER Collection from BasicGrey to create a rocking, fun, artsy, mini album with a summer/travel theme, perfect for a variety of photos. We are going to have fun and get messy with gesso, paint, mists, and tons of fun embellies.

Kits and more class info will be available soon, so keep your eyes peeled. This is going to be an exclusive project and online class you won't find anywhere else.

Yeah!!

How Cool is that? My first feature at 2Peas. :) Here is the full layout and close-ups.

Thanks, Ami, for making sure I didn't miss seeing it!

Monday Was...

Monday was one of "those" days. I ran all over the place, running errands, and it seemed that no one had anything that I needed. I went to a Dr. Appt, only to find that the Doc had been called away to do a C-section. I went to Staples, only to find they were out of the photo paper I needed. The grocery store was also out of paper towels... and on it went. :) Ever have a day like that?

Today looks like it will be much better! Yeah! So far, the kids are cooperating, I have my mojo back, and the house isn't too far from clean. Oh, and dinner is planned too. Sounds like a good start to me!

One quick layout to share today. I created this one with some old 7gypsies and some new K&Co. I was THRILLED to find the new K&Co Jubilee papers and embellishments at JoAnn Fabrics last weekend (on sale too!) and of course I bought all the papers. I used a few bits of them (the purple) on this layout. I created the background with random swipes of paint and some Cranberry Zing Glimmer Mist, and drew in the lines to add a little something.

This is one of the many Monarchs we have seen this summer. There are more butterflies around this year then I ever remember seeing before. So beautiful!

I'm off to enjoy my much better day! Hope yours is fabulous also!
