Along with the stresses of married life and being a mom to 3 kiddos this week has been filled with artwork. First, I just mailed in my ATCs for Collage Stuff’s Tim Holtz June Swap. I was inspired by artwork that Tim did of his sister, using retro papers and colors and also using Tim’s Adirondack spray ink in Butterscotch to age the artist trading cards. I’m also so excited to be taking Claudine Hellmuth’s online 12 week class from Big Picture Scrapbooking. Today was the first day and already I’m just loving all of her designs and techniques! This afternoon was also a big day at By Design Scrapbooking Store in South Houston, it is their Big 3 year anniversary. We got to stop in and enjoy 30% discount along with the gorgeous Make n’ Take tag for $1 featuring grunge and distressing Ranger style! check out their store every Thursday for something neat.
