Closing 2016-Part 1
Hi crafty friends! It has been too long since my last post, and I am very sorry! We were so busy at the end of November and December that things just got away from me.

Bright Birthday Card
Hi Everyone! Today I’m sharing another homework creation from Tim Holtz’ Creative Chemistry 103. In day 4 we worked with distress crayons, and I have become a believer!

Hi Everyone! I’m cutting it very close on this one, but hopefully I will make the deadline for Tim Holtz’ July 12 Tags of 2016 Remix.
