12 x 12 Framed Art - Tim Holtz Inspired

This is Lori's finished project :) This is the class I took last week. And yes mine does look almost the same, i just haven't finished mine as one of my black backing pieces was missing and I have not had time to get to the store to get it.
This class was amazing and so many techniques used for the 9 pieces and so many ideas for other ones too! Thank you Lori and The Scrapyard for a fabulous night!

Is Christmas really this close?!

I think this week will be a quiet one. Busy at work and sooo many things to get made!! So this week needs to be one of coming home, getting comfy and getting crafting :) Doing paper bag books for my sister, sister in law and Mom. And also doing books for my Dad, who is living away from all his grandkids right now and a book for my brother with pics of his daughters (who live with there Mom a ways away from us)
Thankfully I have tons of pics and I love my Epson printer i got a month or so ago. Prints really good pictures so I can pick and choose and change my mind at the last minute it I want too :) I have been known to do that haha
Hope everyone's week has started well and only gets better!!

Awesome end to the week :)

Wednesday was my Tim Holtz 12 x 12 Framed Art Class at The Scrapyard! It was fantastic and i got to take it with a dear friend so that made even more fun! We decorated our frames with tissue paper, and made 9 small squares all inked and embellished. Those were then adhered to small black squares to be glued to a large 12 x 12 piece of board. Almost got finished but worked on it again tonight to get it done. will hopefully have a photo of the completed art by the end of the weekend. One of my black squares was missing so I'll have to go back and grab it.
Then tonight was an awesome crop night with great friends and more awesome friends just popped in for visits!! I am very lucky to know some incredible people and even more lucky to be able to call them friends! Worked on my art project, got some royal blue bags so I can make a paper bag book for my sister for Christmas, another class i took last month, and we all had a cake to celebrate our friend's transfer to a store that she loves.  WE will miss her as our scrapbook teacher but very happy for her that she gets to work at the store she loves!! We will follow you Izzie...LOL
Tomorrow will be a quiet day I think, time to work on my Christmas gifts and relax and listen to Christmas music :)

Quiet couple of nights here.  Was out tonight trying to get some ideas for Christmas gifts for my nieces and my nephew. Got to talk to my Ethan on the phone, he will be 4 on sunday and he sounds so grown up already :( But he's so handsome and his Auntie loves him so much and wishes he was closer!


I'm very excited for tomorrow night!! Tim Holtz 12 x 12 Framed art class at The Scrapyard with Jackie!! Really looking forward to this one and hope I can use some of the things I learn for my other projects I have for Christmas :)
