Crafting weekend #2...



I had the most amazing time this weekend at Chelsey's Creative Events Scrapbooking event. A full weekend, a full room of scrapbookers, card makers, and art journalers, and it's like a little piece of heaven... that disappears in what feels like merely minutes. Here's a shot before we started:

And... well... all of my writing supplies:

Here's Christina and myself. She put a tattoo mustache on for the day. What fun.

Here's one of my Documented Life Project challenges:
"Draw a shape, repeat, add colour"

Chelsey was always is so kind and caring throughout these events. (And I'm sure in her daily personal life too, she's just one of those good people) I made this for her as a small gesture of my appreciation:

Then, smarty pants Roxanne decided she needed one so I whipped this one up in the final minutes of our weekend. (I feel like it's unfinished... I may have to give her a do-over):

Finally, I tried to work mostly on redoing my online classes I've taken over the past year. I started with Letter Love 101 and made my way to Letter Love 201:



I focused more on the lessons rather than the colouring. Now I have a ton of colouring to complete:




Can you see my name in there? It'll be easier to spot once coloured:










Remember all those stickers I had? This was finally my chance to play with a few of them without having to share... (I'm so selfish with my stickers... well, I want to be but I end up letting the girls use them before I can so this was a little bit of sticker selfishness for myself)


And more classes, partially complete:


Some lyrics from The National:


And some pieces of happy mail I received, turned into a journal spread:






I also finally finished the cover to my Documented Life Project book:


And made a picture of my two Prima girls. I see the left one as Addison and the right one as Emily.

And I got home to the first signs of spring!!!
