Combined Style Card & Day Trip

Hurray...the weekend is here! My hubby is out of town, so I have the TV all to myself! I have some movies for tonight, Tomorrow I am getting creative!
I made this card for my Friend Rhodeen, she loves the Tim Holtz look... I love the The Studio 490 (Wendy Vecchi) look...so this is how I combined the 2 styles on her birthday card!

Yesterday Rhodeen & I went to Wimberly,Tx...just to look around...shop...and get inspired. Here are a few pictures of some of the cool stuff we saw

And some fabulous shabby chic finds in some of the boutiques!

I love that crown!

We had a great time....I can't wait to go back when they are having market days!

This was a longer than usual post for me, and I would love to hear what you think! I so appreciate your comments!

Shabby Chic Frame Class

This shabby chic embellished frame is the sample for an up-coming class. It will be on Saturday July 31st, at the Scrapbook Haus in New Braunfels, TX. Everything is provided to create all the flowers and each kit includes a hand crochet doily used on the largest flower. There are a limited number of spaces, as I only have so many frames.
I want to say thank you to everyone who vistis my blog, and let you know that I am planning a blog candy give away very soon....so stay tuned!

Friendship Quilt

It has a very busy week..and now the weekend is gone too...so I am gonna make this a very short post. I made this "Friendship Crazy Quilt block" for a friend for her birthday. I had a matt cut to fit it and framed it in a 10" X 10" shadow box frame. I plan to make a few more for some friends with upcoming birthdays...I just hope they will be patient with me! I have also been asked if this will be a class....and welllllll.....maybe....is all I can commit to right now!
Edit- This is pieced with designer paper-not fabric.

Thanks for stopping by...I appreciate your coments!

Dasies for my Daughter

Today I am sharing the class project for this month's flower class. You will be decoupaging a matt for a photograph, then making the Dasies and putting them on the matt. I used one of my daughter's senior pictures (from a few years ago) as my inspiration for this one.

The class is Thursday evening June 10th at the Scrapbook Cottage.

Thanks for stopping by today!

PS...if you are comming to the class bring Distress ink in Tea Dye
