Happy RAINY DAY Monday to you all!
Selma Stevenson from Washington was our workshop hostess (along with Joan) ... WOW, what a talented and sweet lady! I was glad I went out early and had some extra time to enjoy the company of Joan & Selma. The projects we made were awesome and so much fun!! I can't wait to make more of these boxes ... isn't it beautiful! And so easy too!
This is Webster's Pages designer paper & lace trim. All products used are available at Joans Gardens.
The other two projects we made at the work shop are this cute little "Cherry Picking Girl" and beautiful "Shadow Box Card".
My photographing ready don't do these projects justice! There is so much dimension and detail that the photo just doesn't pick up ... but you can imagine how sweet these projects are IRL.
There were 25 ladies at the workshop ... some friends I had made in the past at Joan's Workshops and some NEW friends which I hope to see again at future workshops/get togethers. It was a little snug but Joan was able to keep us all in one area and we had a GREAT time! Joan & her husband, Jon are such wonderful hosts and I can't thank them enough for all their kindness!
The ladies decided Joan should schedule another workshop while we were all there and could decide on a good date. The next one will be on August 28th and I hope to attend and link up with many of these lovely, fun-loving ladies again.
