Circle of Crafters

I've been worried the past week or so because I have not been able to access one of my favorite websites at Circle of Crafters. Finally, tonight I was able to view their main page at http://www.circleofcrafters.com/. I hope to see the Iris Folding and Tea Bag Folding sites back up soon.

Clearly a great class at Stamp Salado

I had a great day at Salado today. Bagpipe contests at the 48th Annual Salado Scottish Clan Gathering & Highland Games filled the store as we decorated acrylic birds and made clear acetate Christmas cards. The ladies were super. I hope you all enjoyed the day as much as I did.

A special thanks to Pam from Heart of Texas Studios for assisting with the birds and the cards.

Sandy has asked me to come up with another class after the new year. Hope to see some of you again.

Wonderful class at Wendaful's

Thanks ladies for making the class great! Happy folding!

Scrapbook Haus Classes

Last weekend we had blast at the teabag folding and iris folding classes.



I was very disappointed that Jimmye Sue was sick and couldn't come. Instead the participants had to suffer through my instructions of Jimmye Sue's iris folding cards. I really missed her those two hours. A special thanks to Jeanie who filled in as my helper.



I hope every one was able to go away with a couple of new techniques and lots of new ideas.

Stamp Salado Success!!!

I taught a great bunch of ladies tea bag folding yesterday at Stamp Salado. I thoroughly enjoyed the class and the participants. A special thanks to Sandy for the opportunity to teach in her store. If anyone in the class has questions, please post a comment or send me an e-mail.

I'll have samples of new class as soon as I can. We haven't set a date yet, but it will probably be late October or the first of November. In the meantime.... enjoy your folding!

Halloween Stampin' and Foldin'

Now isn't this card cute. I used the mini halloween cactus from Texana Designs and stamped the images about 3" apart on some really cool Karen Foster variegated paper. Then I used my square punch and placed the image in the upper left corner of all eight. From these tiles I used the kite fold and created the background medallion. The top medallion is stamped with Tea Bag Cube #12 from Impression Obsession. The fold was the triangle fold, variation two. I stamped a sentiment and then decorated the card with orange stickles. I never knew all the ways stamps could be used with tea bag folding.
