Our first class for the new Techniques group is in the books, and it was awesome! This group of ladies laughed, had fun playing and trying ideas, and thoroughly enjoyed gathering. The talking was almost non-stop – in a good way! – catching up on kids and grands. Pool Boy came in towards the end and he even commented about how the group enjoyed being together. Of course, I had to rush them out of the house after we finished when out of the blue the men arrived to put up new gutters!! So, out they went while the men on the roof refrained from throwing down the old and carrying up the new!!! It all worked out though!!! No stamper was hurt in the destroying of downspouts! That is the main thing!!!

I needed a bit of play time myself, so off I went to the craftroom to play with the Abundant Beauty Masks which I refer to as the sunflower masks. Our online class still has room for a couple more participants, and we are down to the last few days of sign up! Info is listed below of what’s included!!! I wanted a different color from the traditional fall colors, so my color scheme is a basic gray card base and a Smoky Slate mat. Flowers and leaves are Bubble Bath, Berry Burst, and Lost Lagoon. The background herringbone is Smoky Slate as well. The greeting came from one of my new go-to greetings stamp sets – So Sincere found in the Holiday mini catalog. Paired with a vellum handmade tag punch and a deckled circle for the greeting, it’s perfect for a sympathy card which we seem to need more off each year. If you look closely you can see the Wink Of Stella on the centers of the flowers as well.
