Lots of Stamp Joy and Summer School Sessions!

Hello friends!  I hope you’ve had a wonderful week and looking forward to a great weekend coming up!  We are having a heat advisory for the next several days over my way, so I thought it would be a great idea to stay indoors and craft!  I also thought this would be a great time to catch up with some posts sharing some things that I’ve worked on the first part of this year that I hadn’t gotten a chance to share with you.

  • LONG POST – pull up your chair with your favorite beverage and enjoy!

I thought I’d share the Taylored Expressions Virtual Stamp Joy that I did back in March.  I actually spent the weekend attending the classes and creating as I followed along.  I managed to get all of the projects done the day after the event was over, but failed to post all of what I had made due to the fact that I was busy helping two different people move…and then life just got really busy after that as well! LOL

*I also have added an additional event from Taylored Expressions this last weekend called “Summer School” which concentrated on foiling techniques.  Although I’ve done foiling before, I sure enjoyed seeing new products and learning a few new techniques too!  (These four cards are at the end of the gallery photos below)*

I always love to learn new things with stamping/crafting along with all of the fun new products that come out too!  I know I REALLY don’t need to purchase more things, but when cool stuff comes out, it’s really hard to pass it by!  I think doing these classes and joining in on different challenges help me to use these fun things up!

So I hope you’ve enjoyed my post sharing all of the things that I’ve been doing!  I will have another post sharing more things that I haven’t shared yet too!  In the meantime, I’ve also been working on a scrapbook which has been fun and something that I haven’t done in a really long time!  A baby can do that to you! LOL

Thanks so much for stopping in today my friends!  I’ll be seeing you soon!  Have a great weekend!😊
