Another Week for Lesson 64

I finally succumbed to my family's germs and got a nasty cold that turned into asthma. I had to cancel some lessons so I have extended Lesson 64 (August 28 and 29). There will not be a lesson this coming Sunday (Fathers Day).
The cards for the Peach Parfait Crate are now finished.







I have also made an Owl Crate for my sister-in-law's birthday.

I have been working with some of the products from the new Stampin' Up Catalogues and you will see them next week. Orders have already been taken and will be placed on September 1. It's all very exciting!

My Birthday Mini Album

Most of you know that I celebrated my 60th birthday last month. It was really great to share the celebration with my family and friends. Thanks to all of you for your kind thoughts, words and gifts. My friends Judy and Judy took lots of birthday photos and seeing that you have been asking for another album I thought we'd make a Mini Star Album. There are a lot of tutorials available but I selected one from A Happy Scrappy Place.



While I was waiting for my new products from the 2012-2013 Stampin' Up Catalogue to arrive I thought I'd get out some retiring cardstock and DSP and make a Card Chest (Jenny Moors). I really enjoyed making it. So far I have only finished one card to go inside it because a large brown box arrived on Thursday with all sorts of new things to play with.



Betsy's Blossoms has been getting quite an inking. I have also been using new DSP and inkpads. Inspiration from Mary Fish.
Lesson dates are August 14, 15, 19, 21, 22.
