Bad Mamma Jammas

Is it irony that the ATC's I sent to the swap that I could not attend yesterday said soar?



Yesterday I went to watch Ayesha, Sarah, and Leticia skydive! Yes, it's true these girls are bad mamma jammas! ( ;) Leticia)



We watched for the plane that was dropping the girls off from a trampoline that made it easier to see the action!



Ayesha first.


Sarah Second.



And finally Leticia!


It was a very cool experience and even though Deb and I did not jump we felt like we were part of the excitement! Stephen was there to cheer Sarah on too! Deb and I will refer to yesterday with fondness as the day we didn't jump from a plane!

This Weeks Adventure!

Wednesday

We celebrated Amber"s unbirthday! Like the Madhatter's tea part, some people must clebrate their unbirthday. Last year we started picking random day to celebrate Amber's unbirthday since we always for get her real birthday. Our waiter at Tandori Times 2 even wore her hat and brought her a silly little dessert. (Deb and I got her a Twilight Team Jacob shirt even though we prefer Edward.)



Thursday

Parent Teacher Conferences a.k.a. Kelly Kilmer Charity Night :) Kelly donated some "scraps" to my kids and we made the most awesome snippits books like Kelly! I had 88 students and thier families in my studio in only two hours it was amazing!



Friday

Early release day and Ayesha and I finally talked Deb into her first pedicure ever! This was a major acomplishment!

Necklaces, Necklaces, Necklaces!

Necklaces for Katie...


and a few more.

A Very Cool Halloween Book

I love this Halloween book! It might be a little bit obnoxious to love your own art work but it's true. I told my friend Leticia that I'd make her a mini album for her birthday on any topic I just needed 8-10 pictures. When Leticia picked a book about pumpkin carving last year you can imagine my excitement! I started last night and just couldn't stop I was having too much fun!

Haloween Inchies & The Final Kelly Class

I was able to make my Halloween Inchies this weekend! (I was too excited to sleep:)


I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my Swatches: Little Paper Books that I made with Kelly this weekend! You can't fully appreciate them unless you are holding them in your hands but I have to share these photos with you.

More Kelly Fun!

Yesterday's day class with Kelly was What Come's Next. We were able to continue working in a journal that we had already started. We did lots of painting and collaged some too! We also went to get a Sprinkles cupcake at lunch time! It was a great part of the adventure. We were all on a sugar high at first and a sugar crash at the end.




In the night class we made an adorable little bound book that I LOVE! Ayesha and Leticia joined in on the fun! The best part of this book is that some of the pages were very long and got folded over to make little pull outs! It's too cute!



More Kelly today!

Thing ONe, Thing Two, Thing Three

Thing One:
I have been busy making a ton of necklaces from Tim Holtz stuff. A few of my friends at work asked me to sell them a few and making them is so fun I couldn't resist!



Thing Two:
Ayesha, Deb, Leticia, and I all took Rosie's button class on Thursday night. It was too much fun! We went to dinner at The Saddle Ranch before class. I LOVE their corn muffins and we experienced the new honey butter- Yum! (Yes, I'm really this cheesy!)


And you know I can't get enough of this button making business! It was also fun because Kelly was in the class! Watch for upcoming classes at Frenzy! Now you can make compacts too! Count me in!



Thing Three:
Kelly is in town! (In case you missed that in Thing Two.) Last night was Revelations: Revealing The Layers. We made a tall book that turned out to be a great size for collaging images from larger magazines. I had these pink girls saved in my stash from the last time Kelly was here. They were always too big before but now-watch out! Here come the pink girls. :) I'll keep you posted on more classes from the weekend. Come play at Frenzy!
