Day 3 - Fun with Alcohol Inks...

  It's another record breaking day here in Massachusetts, with temps almost up to 80....!  LOVE it.  Feels like a gorgeous Summer day and today I have all the windows open and it actually feels kind of hot.  But, I'm not about to complain...I'll take HOT any day over cold and by Friday, we'll be back down to 50, so I'm enjoyed it while I can.

   I had a very busy morning with a hair appointment and then came home to meet up with Brian and Meghan to finish cutting the envelopes for their Save the Date announcements.  I think we have enough done and left ended up leaving with a box full of tags and envelopes and were going to the PO to have them weighed and buy the stamps.  They will then work on the last little insert and hopefully get starting on putting them in the mail.    I also still need to get back to working on the Rehearsal Dinner plans and they both seem to be happy with one of the places I've been in touch with, so that may be where we go!   Until I have a final head count and meal choices from them, I'm kind of stuck, but think it will all work out well!

  Today is also Day 3 in Creative Chemistry and I'm stopping by to share a couple of pictures of the tags I put together after today's class, which focused on Alcohol Inks, which I really do love to work with.  Once I had mine out it was really fun trying some new color combos and then adding in some Silver Mixative too!!

  These are a few of my favorites from today and it's was again and very enjoyed and educational class.  I have noticed there are tons of brand new crafters in this class and Tim sure must be swamped with all the questions he is being asked each day.  You can tell that he puts a lot of time an effort into each Video and the daily PDF files, very much like Jennifer and Kristina have done with all their classes.   I wonderful when these creative people ever sleep, as they seem to always be so busy and area always sharing some wonderful new project!!





  And that's it for today!   The second image above ended up being my favorite color combination today, which I'm sure is not much of a surprise.  I really love how the purple and blue shades mixed together.  I also have some green, aqua and plum along with Silver Mixative!!   I totally loved today's class and very much am looking forward to tomorrow, as I don't have to leave for any appointments and can spend a lot more time in my craftroom!  WOOHOO!!!

A Little About Me

Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, an illness I personally live with. I had to stop working in 2006 due to Fibro and Degenerative Disc Disease. It's been a tough road at times, but I have a wonderful family and fantastic friends. I am a Mom to two awesome sons (Ages 21 and 26) and a wife and friend to a wonderful Hubby. We live in a tiny coastal community in Massachusetts and have lived here all my life. My hubby and my boys are my whole world and mean every thing to me! I cherish all three of my guys!! I am very lucky to be blessed with wonderful friends. I adore and cherish each of my friends as much as my family! I am an avid card-maker and love all types and stamping, and also love coloring with my Copics. I'm very lucky to have this whole new world on online friends that I've met through my Craft Groups. HUGS TO YOU ALL!!
