Yaaaay! Merry Monday #255 is back - and it's a "joy"-ful occasion, lol! Color Throwdown #459 is perfectly timed to help out, too, with layout "ink-spiration" from In{k}spire Me #316!
Incorporating the word "joy" immediately took me to my now retired {SOB} Wonderful Wreath framelits - the pretty words also included in this set have long been a fave of mine! I had planned originally to have the fashion layer be white, with stamped pine sprigs from the equally lovely Christmas Pines set. But then I pulled my white layer over to my stamping surface, leaving the "joy" lying on the black layer. And I was like "WHOA - that's cool!" So I started working on setting off white and red details against the black. I actually redid it once and pulled off the pine branches I started to use - too busy, and I'm not sure I'm not still too busy, sigh. Still, I love these modern contrasts - so elegant!

Let's Get Messy 2 on Sep 14 & 16!
I've had quite a few requests for another edition of our "Messy Class," and I can hold out no longer, lol. Let's do it again! This class will feature fun new techniques and products that might be just a little bit "messy" to play with - and we'll all get messy together while we learn how to tame them! We'll make 5 all-occasion cards that you will love creating! No apron required! (But maybe don't wear white!)
Class will be held on Thursday, September 14 at 630 pm or Saturday, September 16 at 3 pm, and will include all supplies needed (bring your own snips and adhesive!), plus drinks and snacks, and a special gift from me, all for $25! This class can also be FREE with your order of $30 or more! RSVP today!
