WOW....My Eureka Moment!!!

Tim Holtz Workshop - Art From the Heart - Harrogate 17.02.11
What can I say to explain how excited I was to have such a super birthday present from my hubby, a morning with Tim Holtz the altered art guru.  Up at 6.30AM to prepare myself for the journey which took just over an hour.  The class started at 9.00am and there was a buzz in the air, all students waited with great anticipation for Tim to start the session.  We were given a bag of goodies and I mean a big bag of goodies all to keep!  We were shown the journal Tim had made and then it was heads down as he talked us through each section, there was no time for slacking not even time to pee.  After four hours non stop I think all were exhausted trying to absorb all the information Tim was feeding us.....I'll never remember it all, wish I could have taped it!  A big thank you to Dyan for putting on the event, what a star.
Driving home I had this wonderful warm glow feeling .......like when you have done something really special.
Enjoy the pics ......Wendy

RIBBON WINDOW

Having created a cut file for this card it can have any item inside the aperture.  The back and front panels are glued on the side scallop attaching  ribbon between the layers and a beautiful sentiment added to the die cut spellbinders frame inside, finished off with a few punched out flowers and leaves........enjoy

FLIRTY THIRTY

This card was made using hot, hot pinks and black lace with just a flowery feminine touch to finish.

DAISY TRIO

This card was made at one of our workshops in 2009. Margaret sent it to Making Cards magazine as a thank you for the goodies she had one and found they have published it in the January 2011 issue ......how cooooool is that!

CHRISTMAS GREETINGS 2010

Oh Christmas Tree!

I am making a few charity Christmas cards with some friends and this is my first offering.   We were lucky enough to have a box of freebies donated from Kanban cards and this is what we intend to use.......maybe more to follow so watch this space.

A little light!

I made this special card for a dear friend of mine who recently celebrated her 75th birthday.  The images are from Joanna Sheen's Thomas Kinkade Cd which is truly magical.  The floral areas have been sprinkled with flower soft to create a really 3D look and just a touch of glitter and of course a beautiful bow.
