Happy Cards for a Happy Day…
Yesterday was such a lovely Spring day.
The sun was shining, the birds were singing.
My teenage son wanted to go out with me for dinner!
You know… a “Happy” kind of day.
So a good day deserves some “Happy Day” cards.
Cards to make you “Smile”.
And… if you like these cards and would like to make a set for yourself, we will be making these cards in my “Happy Day Cards” class that I’ll be teaching in May at The Paper Forest.

Pictures from Sue’s Holiday Workshop
As promised here are the pictures from this years Holidays Workshop.
I must say that I liked all three of the group’s pictures. (not one eye closed)
Thank you, to all the wonderful ladies that came this year to my Holiday Workshop,
I had so much fun. O.K., I have fun every year.
But…I think this year’s group which included 9 new people was even more fun and enthusiastic
than ever. I loved spending my Saturday creating with you all.
I was on such an adrenaline high after it was all over that I didn’t fall asleep until well after midnight.
For those of you that couldn’t come this year, we missed you, I hope to see you next year.
I love the chalk board frames that I received from my Deflecto Design Team box this month.
They worked wonderfully with my theme.
I made the Candy Cane Suckers with the help of my adorable grandson, Nick, who got sprinkles
everywhere and my lovely daughter-in-law, Bonnie.
I wouldn’t have been able to pull this all off with out her help. Thank You, Bonnie!
(The Candy Cane idea is from Pinterest, you can see the pin here)
Thank You Again to everyone who came and helped. (I kind of wish it wasn’t all over.)
Celebrate Christmas with Graphic 45 (edited)
(Celebrate Christmas with Graphic 45 was a card class that I gave in November of 2014.)
In this class, I showed how to make use of the varied patterns and bits & pieces to create layered pieces with charm and style.
The Vintage Christmas collection from Graphic 45 is based off the classic tale “Twas the Night Before Christmas. This collection is packed with all the fun and traditional images of this festive season. Reds, greens, gold and cream – this collection will remind you of all the special moments in this special time.
