MY FIRST CLASS!!!


I am so excited to be teaching my first class.  I tried to keep it simple.  I intentionally mixed products from a variety of collections - the bunny stamp is from Stampin Up, the solid color background papers are from Close to My Heart,  the chalk ink is from Cat's Eye, the ribbon is American Crafts and the easter basket is a Sizzix die.  Mosaics lend themselves to so many options for using stamps, stitching, die cuts and more - keep your mind open and mix up your supplies!

More Butterflies!


I think I have about 1,000 butterfly pictures.  We have taken my niece and nephews to the Butterfly Show every year for a very long time.  I used a butterfly cornerstone from Snap N Crop.  I ordered a white one and used copper Tattered Angels spray to make it blend in with the greens, yellows and oranges of the layout.

My Sister's First Mosaic!


  These things are addictive, aren't they?  I've been professing my love for mosaics for two months.  I taught my sister how to do it and now she's addicted, too!
