Life Right Now - 2020

These are pocket pages (hence a little glare). We were to document every day life by using numbers. For example: "THREE - the number of members of my little family..."; "ONE - the number of times I drink a cup of tea every day..." It's a cool concept!

Crop and Create Delivered - 2020
Normally, I would have attended a Crop and Create weekend in September. But with Covid cancelling everything, Scrapbook and Cards Today decided to have a VIRTUAL event called Crop and Create Delivered. NINE HUNDRED PLUS signed up for this event from all over the world.
We got a 10 pound box of supplies. There were 4 classes, an Attendee Kit, prizes, a treat and material for three make-and-takes. It was awesome! SO MUCH content, plus demos from other vendors. The fun never stopped! And I didn't STOP - I extended it for 2 extra days because I couldn't get it all done in that time period (and you weren't expected to). We have the course still available to check out on line plus a detailed instruction book that came with the kits.
So I will posting all the projects as I get them done. Stay tuned!
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH - 2020
Crop and Create Class in 2018 by Paige Evans. Finally got the second layout done!
