Stella 2-page layout...let me know what you would like prepared for your title.

This layout takes 4- 3" by 4" photos, 4- 3" by 3" photos and one 2.5" by 3" photo- great for those of us who are trigger happy or have lots of kids!! Also consider taking a fav photo and splitting it into two consecutive frames...

OR....Stella "Love" Card....extra products needed..."Tulip" and "Cocoa" Exclusive Inks, "Love" Stamp from My Acrylix "Art Philosophy" Stamp set, Flower and Butterfly from "Pemberley Workshop" stamp set.

Or...Stella "Celebrate"...this one may be tweaked a little before you show up...I'm not totally happy with the sentiment part in the middle....extra items needed, Cocoa and Tulip Exclusive Inks, and the February Stamp of the month "Potential" which is no longer available- but anything with a circular design could be used for the "Fleur de lis" and "Celebrate" came from the Art Philosophy stamp set.

Mother's Day Gift workshop May 4th

Had my first Jumpstart party last night and had a blast! I really appreciate my friends and their willingness to leave their husbands and family at home once in awhile to share "big girl time"!! It was so fun to see how everyone put their own spin on the card I was demo-ing... So here's what is up next: Mother's Day is right around the corner, and what mom wouldn't like a home-made gift?? I will be holding this workshop at my home on Friday, May 4th at 8pm. My kids have a baseball game at 5:30 that night, so we'll start a little later- just tell your husbands 6:30pm and go out to dinner with your girlfriends then bring them over to my place!! The workshop if $5 for the projects or free if you purchase $15 in products that night. Hope to see you all soon- Korie
