Candy Corn treats

So at the end of each section of classes I teach at parks and rec, I try to remember to give my attendees a little treat. Well a week ago or so I was able to get me hands on a few bags( ok 10 bags) of the candy corn M&M's. So I took SU! new treat bags and filled them, and then of course had to add a tag! Isn't it cute? I plan to make a few cards with them, so you will be seeing it around! Thanks for stopping in!





BOO! card

As much as I love Halloween~I wasn't sure if everyone at club sent out Halloween cards. So decided to make our card multipurpose. It folds up perfectly for a 3x6 envelope or can be unfolded and become a little home decor.Here is what the "B" looked like close up. Julie-one of my sideline had made the cutest BOO! frame a few years ago with this great goo technique. I thought it would be perfect for this card! We also added this spooky skeleton on the exclamation mark!
Thanks for coming by!

Water Coloring Class Project 5

So I saved the best for last(well at least I think so)I absolutely Love this Dino-roar set! Is he not the cutest? So this is the last project I thought at my water coloring class. I showed the steps to take in order to get the end results of my dinosaur. We used water color paper with re-inkers and blender pens-my favorite combo.
This class was great! I hope to do another one soon!

See you tomorrow!!!

Water Coloring Class Project 3&4

Yesterday I posted the first two projects I thought at my water coloring class last week. Here are two more! First of all, how cute is this elephant? Well for this cute card we used water color pencils. I showed the chart shown in the picture below and went over the amount of penciling you really need to do before blending with blender markers.

This next project is a simple box that used ink and aqua pens to blend into a landscape background. I love this look and it is a very easy technique with our watercolor paper!

Watercoloring class project 1 & 2

Hi Everyone and Happy Friday!

Last week I held a water coloring class. We made 5 small projects with 5 different techniques of water coloring. And since it is one of my favorite things to do, I had a blast teaching the class. The first project I am highlighting was a gift bag and tag we decorated. The tag was the watercolor part-we used watercolor crayons for this project.

The second project we made was this little flower tin. The flowers are the white paper flowers in the idea book and catalog. We used the re-inkers and aqua painters to create this "tie-dye effect on them.
Be sure to stop by tomorrow to see the rest of the projects we did!

Teddy Bear Picnic

So last week Makai's school hosted a Teddy Bear Picnic for all the kids! It is a fun day for the students. They get to have a snack outside with there teddy bears and do teddy bear related stuff. I though it might be cute to make a treat for the kids... I know they are a bit hard to see so here is a closer look at just the treat. I took the extra large marshmallows and dipped them in chocolate. added small chocolate chip cookies for ears and added a face with frosting, put it in a baggy and tied it off with a teddy bear tag!
Here is the whole crew of them I made. We put them in a picnic basket and Makai handed them out!
