Happy Easter and my first workshop details!

Happy Easter everyone!

While my son, Connor, was napping, I decided to whip up some Happy Easter cards for the family function I was attending.  I was happy and impressed with how fast they came together.  I think it took me less than an hour from start to finish.  I have to apologize for the picture quality.  The flash has gone out on my camera and I haven't the funds to replace the camera yet.  Works great with no flash in good light though.

My first workshop!

I have finally scheduled my first workshop for April 18th from Noon - 3pm at Forza's on Pearl St in Tacoma.  We will be making the awesome Tri-Shutter albums that have previously been featured here and here on my blog.  The workshop fee is $12.  You have your choice of papers either You Rock, Caboodle or Veranda.  I have posted some slideshows below.  Please note the Veranda and You Rock albums haven't been embellished yet but you will have a ton of different embellies to do with as you choose at the workshop.

If you would like to attend, please email me at angievcrafts at gmail dot com!  If you are one of my friends from out of town and would like to do this workshop, I can ship a kit to you with all the goodies for the same price - shipping included!

Hope to see you there!

You Rock!

On my quest to share two cards a week with all my non-existent followers, I offer the following.

I designed this card trying to come up with a project for home gatherings.  It is fun and easy and takes about 20 minutes or less to make.  If you book a gathering for the month of March, this is what we will make!

The layout for the card is from the How To Program book, Wishes.  The pattern name is "Sentiment Secured."  I rotated the pattern 90 degrees.  The star and sentiment are from the Wishing Star stampset.  The star uses the 2nd generation stamping technique.  The flourish stamp is also 2nd generational using a flourish stamp from the Felicity kit.  Felicity is no longer available but CTMH has a ton of stampsets with flourishes on them.
