Happy Halloween


Happy Halloween to everyone.  This is one of my favorite days of the year, today you can be anything or anyone you want to be and it is OK.  I don't decorate or dress up for Halloween like I used to but it is still a fun day.

Class at the Senior Circle was fun yesterday and everyone seemed to accomplish a lot of what they were working on. Next week we will be back to the day planner and I think most everyone will complete that.  For the remainder of the year I think we will just meet and work on projects everyone is trying to finish and not start a new album until the first of 2014. WOW! What happened to 2013?

Today I will be working on finishing the football album I have started and hopefully complete it.

I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful Halloween!
Hugs,
Delo

Happy Tuesday!

It's been over a week since I last posted but what a crazy week.  We went to Lajitas, TX on the trike for the weekend of the 18-20 with a few of our friends. Then back home to get ready for the papercrafting class I teach on Wed. at the Senior Circle. Then home to get ready for the weekend retreat at Black River, it was 25-27.

At Black River I worked on a football album for a friend in Odessa, her son plays for the Giants in one of the elementary schools there.  They have a banquet at the end of the season with a silent auction and she wanted an album for that.  The album turned out really cute, I will post pictures after she sees it for the first time.

We had a great weekend retreat at Black River, I completed as much of the football album as possible while helping some friends complete a complicated album they were wanting to make. All three did an awesome job.  I can't wait to see how they decorate and embellish their albums. 

I hope to post again soon but for now I need to get ready for my class tomorrow. If anyone is interested, I teach a papercrafting class every Wed. 9:00am to 1:00pm at the Senior Circle on Bonita St.  We make albums, learn new techniques, how to use tools and other things in the papercrafting world.

I hope everyone has an awesome week.
Hugs,
Delo

Creative Chemistry by Tim Holtz

I finished all of the tags for CC 102 but I don't have pictures yet.  I will post the rest when I get all of the pictures taken and downloaded.  I just want to say that Tim Holtz's CC 101 and CC 102 are great classes.  Once you sign up for either one or both you can download everything including the videos and you have lifetime access to the classes on-line. You learn new techniques, most of which pushed me out of my comfort zone, and learn new ways to use products you probably already have.  I love the new techniques and will be incorporating some of them into my albums.  I have so many ideas  rushing around in my head, it's hard to focus on just one.

I hope you consider taking one or both of these classes.

Have a great rest of the week and weekend.
Hugs,
Delo
