Here are a few pics from our last "Sense of Time" Class.  Love every single one!!  They all turned out different in a "beautiful way".  Sandi McIver is a genius!!!

 

Hubby got in on the  action when we started adding our "time pieces" to the boxes...glad he was here!

Love all my girls.... :-)

Sheila Ogltree-Cook decides maybe she needs to let hubby (Harry) work on hers too....hehe

Don't worry, Rhonda not scared, just caught her off guard getting ready to ask me a question.

Here is Ali Norris, working on curling her beautiful flowers.

And sweet baby girl Barbara Holt working on her flowers too, only using her scissors instead of piercing took to curl hers.

And the "lovely" Fontainne Schoenfeld working on her project.  Her names absolutely suits her, she is such a beautiful Southern Belle!

 
Isn't creating something with your own two hands, using your own "special" touch a great feeling?  Until next time my lovely ladies, keep on crafting!

Christmas Album for the Cook's

Hi everyone,

This is my first handmade Christmas Album, so pleae be kind in your comments, lol.  I made this for a very dear friend of mine and downline, Mary Cook. It's an album made with chipboard, DSP and cardstock, and adorned with a few flowers and other little items. 

The tags/pages inside hold some peek-a-boo Christmas Characters and then the front and back for more pictures or journaling.

Sorry for the crummy pictures, did not have good lighting the day I took the pictures.

The back of the album.

First page and insert is the Snowman Peek-a-boo, sin't he cute!!!??

 
Of course you gotta have Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer!

That's Mrs Clause peeking through...... :-)

And of coure Santa Claus wants in too....

  
The very front of the book has some bling, and the elf peeking through the pocket where he is neatly tucked away.

Again, another look at the front of the handmade mini-album.  Thanks to Laura Dennison from Following the Paper Trail for her fanstastic tutorial.....she is a genious and fabulous crafter.

Want to make your own handmade album, come to my class and learn how.  Email me at designzbygloria@gmail.com

Hugs to all,
