My projects from the retreat...

When I returned to the shop this week, I heard that several people didn't think I would be able to get anything done on the retreat. One even went as far to say they would be shocked if I got my glue opened....nice ladies, you had no faith in me. Well I got 5, yes 5 projects done. Here are 3 I will post the other 2 tomorrow.

This is a new Maya Road large layered book, I used the new bird stamps from Inkadinkado and added a transparency from Fancy Pants for the cover. I still need to add more to this album, but I love the pictures that Marie took.

This is a 13 page 6x6 album I made for my new nephew, or should I say his mom. There is a page for a birth picture and then a page for each month. Each page has a pull out for journaling. I used the KI Memories baby paper and lots of Maya Road chipboard, loved the new alphas Noah & Jonathan they are smaller than the others and are great for small projects.

This is my FAVORITE thing I did, I have wanted to do this for 2years. The pictures are of my husband and son both at 5years. I used Zach's life, chipboard from Maya Road, the owl is from the same set of birds from Inkadinkado which I stamped on fabric. The chipboard arrow I covered with ten Second Studio metal I had embossed. I also used the new opaque writer from Ranger...love this pen! This is all done on a 12x12 canvas so I can hang it on the wall.
