Summer....

Since it's almost time for our next workshop I should probably blog about our August club night eh! So we went all the way to Andrew this time to see Jenn's new home (WOW - is all I have to say - and Jim had a small cry on the inside when I told him how much room and land they have....). Anyway it was a great summer night to drive out. Shockingly enough we ALL made it out - the whole club! Even Jackie who was quite a few days overdue with her baby - what a trooper! PS the baby was born a day later - I am just going to put it out there that I think we induced her labour.... You're welcome Jackie ;) The lovely ladies of the club also pulled out all the stops and got me a birthday cake! And sang happy birthday - my face was completely red. Thank you girls - you absolutely mean the world to me.

OK so onto some of the inspiration for this month. I think a lot about scrap booking and crafting and ideas. A lot.... I always want to bring new ideas to the girls because trust me if I am bored it's not a good thing.... So this month we did a few techniques between the pages ladies and the cards ladies. For the pages we tried our hand at Quilling! A great way to make your page interesting and fun. Everyone got to see the new Flirtatious Specialty DSP in the catalogue and use it in the projects this month. For one of the cards I had them use folders, embossing powder, Versa Mark ink and the new Newsprint Specialty DSP. Put them all together and just see what we got:
