~ LSS Costumed Crop

Hubby was on travel so I took both kids to a costumed crop at my LSS.  My boy begrudgingly went but soon got his bearings making his first Make and Take EVER.  He did a great job.  The creativity bug must run in the family.  Here are a few photos from the crop.  I was Little [...]

~ Original Zutter Zisters – Blog Hop & RAKs

 
This past year has been great.  I loved representing Zutter Bind-it-All on the first-ever Design Team for 2008-2009!  My Zisters were awesome, supportive and made the most creative projects with the various Zutter tools.  September 2009 marked the end of our DT year {{{{awwwww}}}} but out of our tight-knit bond together we became OZZ [...]

~ Halloween Treats

Stampin’ Up! has cute little containers and a coordinating stamp set to make these cute little treats.  I wish the treat cups were a tad bigger as they don’t hold a lot of candy.  On second thought, maybe that’s a good thing!  The cups are attached to pieces of patterned paper and secured with staples.  These [...]

~ Halloween Card Class

It’s been a while since I taught my last class.  Looks like my co-workers were ready for some crafting therapy this week.  It was very enjoyable–half newbies and half who have taken my classes in the past.  Our new boss, Bob, joined in and made his cards without assistance.  My boss, Linda, was determined that [...]

I issued a World Card Making Day Challenge in the Zutter Zisters Ning Board earlier this month.  Here is the card I made for inspiration.  The only requirements were (1) it was a card or card-like project and (2) that it used Zutter products.

~ Glasses

Okay, I went on a crazy “glass” kick at my father-in-law’s birthday dinner.  The colors and lights were just too enticing not to photograph.  Here are some of my faves from the night.
