Since I have had an overwhelming response I will need to close my online class registration Saturday May 3rd at 1:00 p.m. CST. Thank you for your understanding.

I have been trying to think of something I can do on NSD that is fun and free for all of you that visit my blog. I am wondering if you would be interested in a free online class? If you are, email me or post a comment to this thread. If I get enough people I can set up a private Ning forum for the online class and rework my “Our Home” layout so you can download the free templates, instructions and type of supplies and tools needed to create the layout shown below.

So let me know what you think…

Mittens hanging up to dry just makes me smile. Not sure why because I’ve lived in Texas for 37 years and we certainly don’t get the opportunity to hang mittens up to dry very often. Heck, we rarely get to wear them… but I love to see them hanging. So I thought I would make some as a winter accent for the house and grabbed a cup of hot coffee, a pencil and some paper. I sat down and got to work creating my mitten template and here is the end result.

Alan will be uploading a tutorial later this evening. So if you want to make some for yourself check back later.

These mittens have just enough twinkle and fluff to keep me smiling all winter long.

Alan and I are working on a downloadable tutorial for this adorable one of a kind paper doll. I think she would look great as an embellishment (a very big embellishment I might add, she stands nearly 12 inches tall) on a holiday layout or framed. My tutorial will include the templates to create this paper doll, close up color photos, a list of products you need to purchase and step by step instructions as well as a few helpful tips.

I have been so busy creating projects for Maya Road and cannot wait for the sneak peek go ahead. You all are just going to LOVE all the new products… truly amazing stuff Deb and Caroline have created. I think it is their best release to date. Really every item is just incredible!

Here are a few cards I created using some of my templates. I love making cards. The problem is once I make them I don’t want to give them away. I’m sure I’m not the only one that feels this way. I will have these templates for sale on my blog soon for those of you that might want to make your own.

Wishing you all a wonderful day.
