A crafty Sunday !! I won another Challenge!! :)

  I am stopping by with a quick post to tell everyone that I have a fabulous time at my class yesterday.  It was a class where we learned a lot of fun and new techniques in order to alter/decorate Painter's Trays and the trays we used were these, made by 7 Gypsy - Click Here. 

   I took my class at my LSS, (Absolutely Everything) and these (shown in the pics below), were the same that Kate, the owner of AE, had done in advance for class.  I thought they may help to give you some inspiration to start one of your own.  I have NOT finished mine, but hope to later this week.

   This was the class along with the class description, and pictures were were provided as our inspiration.  It was an awesome class and not only did we work on our project, it was also a "techniques" and we learned a ton of new stuff.   One I have my tray done, I will post some pictures here.  It's such a fun project and you could do any theme and any style.  Mine will have lots of Purple, of course and will be very girlie girl.  I loved the class and if my 'Fibro body' could have held out, I could have worked all night!!  I also had bought on of these trays awhile back, but had yet to start it, now I will have two and I am very much looking forward to making two.

"'Seven Gypsies Printers Tray' Garden Showcase!  Using many different techniques for the different window openings, we will be doing some metal embossing, some layered florals, Copic marker coloring,  learning a few different flower-making styles, and lots more.   Each person will receive a printers' tray and a supply package with assorted flowers, papers, embellishments, and other goodies. If you would like to incorporate any of your own garden photos, or other special mementos into this, please bring them along."

  Today I am working on finishing up a bunch of challenges over at SSC for their National Scrapbooking Day Celebration Weekend.  If you have not joined, HURRY and you could be the 1,000th Member and you still have time to get in on some of the amazing challenges.  The celebration ends at 8PM, but you have until Midnight tonight(EST) to get your projects done. 

  Here are a couple of the cards I have submitted for some of the fun challenges.  I hope to get a few more done, so I'll be off soon to finish them up.  We have played games and had so much fun!  I thank Judy, Pryn and ALL of the wonderful DT members for putting this ALL together for us.  They did a ton of work in a short time and it's been the BEST NSD event I have every been a part of.  These GIRLS rocked this!!

  Oh...and MORE exciting news!  While I was writing this I just found out that I won another Card Challenge!!  Yippee!  I won the Bildmalarna Challenge for the 'Shape Card' -- Here is a link to the BLOG!!  You can find more information there and also JOIN in for 'The Mother's Day' Challenge!!

    Here is the link that has my "Circle Card" and I have to admit, I was not thrilled with it and almost did not submit it.  As it turns out, y only two gals entered and the other gal did NOT use a 'Bildy' image,  so that pretty much made me the random winner.  PLEASE join me for the 'Mother's Day' Challenge it will be a lot of fun.  If you have not started your 'Bildmalarna' Stamp' collection yet, then HOP right on over to the Bildmalarna Store and start shopping.  There are super cute images and make really adorable cards. 

   That's it for now, I am going back to Simply Scrapping Crafts and working on two more cards, one is a Paper Scraps Card and the other is a 'Race', so I have to go!!!  I  HOPE I can finish them and have them submitted in time.  There are lots of great prizes too!!
