Thank you for visiting my website and shop. I will be taking a "staycation" beginning Sunday August 2 and running through Sunday August 9. During that stretch of time, I will be on social media only sporadically and the online store is now closed.
I officially return on Monday August 10 and I have some extra-special plans in the works for every day of that week. Stay well, be safe, and happy creating.

Spring and Summer Workshops
make time to play....
This has already been a year filled with workshops and retreats for me...with many more to come. So far, here are the numbers:
26 classes
11 states
18 flights
2 retreats
There is nothing like spending time with fellow creatives, making art, learning new techniques, and forgetting about real life. Continuing my whirlwind, worldwide tour in the spring and fall, my schedule over the next few months takes me further afield to 4 different countries. Hoping that you might be able to join me...

August 16-18: Embossing Alchemy, Joker's Wild and Too Cool for Spool at Artistic Artifacts in Alexandria, Virginia. Happy to be back here and to be debuting two new classes. Registration just opened so get 'em while they are hot.
August 23-25: 50 Ways to Leave Your Layer, 52 Card Pickup and Get Baked at Scrapbook Centrale in Montreal, Quebec Canada. Excited to be teaching here for the first time in a trip that is sure to be different from my last visit when I went dog sledding in the snowy forest.

And looking ahead to fall...registration just now opened for a 2-day Bento Box workshop on September 27-28 in Santa Fe, New Mexico at Guadalupe's Fun Rubber Stamps.
