Mum’s the word!

Ssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

heheheh! Well, not really, you can tell any and everyone! 🙂 Some of us girls on Caryn’s CT got together to put a little freebie train together for you.

And, speaking of mums, did you know that I have a brag book party happening on Saturday? We are going to be making some really cute books, perfect for photos to give to mums or grandmas! Would you like to come and make a book? It’s only $7 for materials! Just let me know, and I’ll gladly sign you up!! (you can add your photos later, you don’t have to bring them to the workshop!)

Moms & kids workshop

We had a blast!! We did 4 cards, and the kids (under 7) were done at card #3, so I will know how to adjust that! But, here are the cards that I made as the previews and the cards I made during the workshop with everyone else!

This was the one that we did first, and was probably the hardest of them all to complete, but I think they turned out REALLY cute!

We did this one second, and everyone had a blast choosing which candles they were going to use!

This is what we did third. I used the brown as the preview, and let people know that they could do either side for their color. The chocolate ribbon would have worked perfectly, however, I didn’t have any! LOL So, blue it was!

And this was last but not least! The moms made the ones for the kids, since they were done done done! In one, I did the scallop where the card naturally ended. On the other, I cut off some of the card, and then did the scallop, and you can see a bit more of the white from the inside. I like that a bit better I think!
