So much to share, so little time...here is a small taste of all the goody goodness.....

Oh, mygoodness......Summer school is exhausting! The first day, I taught how to make a little notebook (with hand-sewn stitching and embossing on the cover...I promise, pictures soon!) for my little 3rd and 4th grade detectives to use during our week-long session. My class was so cute today, they took their notebooks around with them to the various stations led by the Missouri State Highway Patrol, taking notes and writing down observations. After only two days....I am pooped.... Tonight I did a bit of shopping and I have been hard at work creating examples and product supply packets for my workshop next Monday. I will post pictures of those later....

My camping trip was awesome!! I didn't make anything for 4 days....by the time I got home I was having major withdrawls....(I did take a sketchbook. I wrote several goodies and did a few drawings....I might post some snipits of that later). Worst part about being gone for so long: I haven't even uploaded the pictures from my camera yet! Usually I do that every SINGLE day!!

I have lots of wonderful pictures and experiences to share...but right now my brain is a bit fried so I will keep this simple. Here is my father's day card. I will probably end up making 2 cards...because I will need one for the FIL of course. This one is for my dad because he is a fisherman. He taught me a lot about fishing as a kid, and I still use that knowledge now. When I showed this card to my husband...he really liked it! He said it is one of my best cards, it is different from other things that I normally make! YAY!! Enjoy!!


(In case you can't tell from the picture, the canoe has silver embossing)
