“What a wonderful day of creating with 18 lovely ladies at my August workshop! There was plenty of scrapbooking, chatting, laughter and, of course, beautiful page layouts being created.

We completed a gorgeous Ocean Treasures – Under the Sea page layout, designed by the talented Christine Vicha. We also had fun creating the fabulous Fireworks Page Layout, designed by Jenny Mancini.

I shared one of my own Hydrangea Page layouts, demonstrating a fun tool technique by punching around the edge of a 12x12 designer paper to create a beautiful decorative frame.

I also did a demonstration of the new Creative Memories Die-Cutting & Embossing System, showing the ladies how this exciting new tool can be used to create custom shapes, titles, embellishments and embossed details for our projects.

I absolutely love seeing how everyone puts their own creative touch on their layouts. Thank you to all 18 ladies who joined me and made the day so enjoyable.”
