I Caved In!

I haven't been posting lately because I seem to always be on the Fair Access Policy threshold. I caved in and went to a higher bandwidth so now i have a little more freedom to post. I was saving my bandwidth for my (Fabulous) online classes at www.jessicaSprague.com. I have taken an ACDSEE class with Heidi Vanyo and a Photography class(which is still going on) with Candice Stringham and now a Digi:In Deep class with Jessica. I also have stamped a few times with my stamping friends plus have been making save the date cards for 2 nieces and working on a wedding favor for another close friend. I thought I would show you a little of what i have been up to lately.

This card is using a new SU! up and coming hostess set and new cardstock color....more info coming soon!

Carolyn came up with the next card. She used a SU! set called Embrace Life with Mellow moss, Groovy Guava & I believe we used Ruby Red. The sentiment is unknown. Thanks Carolyn for such a nice card.

Marie came up with the brown card, I cheated & used another up & coming SU! set and the flower is from Happy Harmony, another SU! set. The corners were cut by Sam on her Cricut.
Another nice card...Thanks Marie.

Here is a layout using a tutorial I found on Jessica's blog. I wasn't going to post this but my friend Jenn is making me do it so she can see it. The paper is by mzimmerman from smiles & Joy the flourish is AVictoria web challenge103 at Designer Digitals. I apologize I am not familiar with all my fonts & I should have written this down.

Rachele came up with this Watermelon card folder that I said I would post but haven't yet so here it is Rachele......and by the Way who said you could be in Calif on your birthday. I was all set to bring you your birthday goodie & Jenn told me to save my gas because you weren't home. Happy belated Birthday!!!! I will get your goodie to you now that I found out you are back.
The next two cards were inspired by Michelle Wooderson . I love her blog. She always has the best stuff to inspire & case. She doesn't know it but i am a frequent lurker on her blog. Well work the visit.

I saw this card in an old Creating Keepsakes magazine & tweaked it a tad but not much. Sentiments were done on the computer.



This is the awesome class I took today at Jessica's. i started this class at 6am & worked on it until 2:30 in the afternoon. I did stop for lunch & a couple of breaks. What a challenge, i think I will need to do this layout a few more time(many more) to remember all the steps that we were taught today. I love this class! Tons of classmates were saying WOW! and they are right. Anyway thanks for looking. Hopefully I will post a little more regular now that i have a little more freedom.
