successful 1st class

here are some pictures from my 1st class at stamp fever on march 12th. we had a great turnout---7 gals who were fantastic to "teach". i really didn't teach them anything they didn't already know! it was more like getting together with your friends and hanging out on a saturday getting crafty.we used these lawn fawn sets: bannerific, critters in the 'burb, hello friend, sophie's sentiments, and petite florals to make 3 cards.

everybody busy at work.....
putting on the finishing touches
here is linda (standing) and nancy in the background. i thank both of them for giving the opportunity to teach at the store and for their support.
this little girl came into the store with her mom & little brother while we had the class. she walked over and asked if she could stamp something. i gave her some paper and she stamped some dogs. she was pretty good i might add at 6 years old! hope to see her at my next class!
a picture of everybody holding up their 3 finished cards! i hope to see all of them at my next class (april 9th)!! samples to come----i'm working on it!
my silly boys. took them to the wild animal park.
brandon & bryan as wild boars
bryan has a huge obsession with maps! he's really good at reading them too. we had to make a lot of stops just so he can find out exactly where we were on the map before we could go on
thank you to everybody who emailed, texted or commented on bryan's recent night terrors. he had them for 4 nights in a row. we decided to take him off his OTC cold & cough syrup and he was fine after that. i don't know if that was a side effect during the time of his sickness but it seemed to do the trick. i'm SO glad he's back to 'normal'!yes, i did organize all their books......i'm anal like that. it won't last long. but makes me feel better that i tried to organize them. one more thing to share---- this little guy was on my neighbor's roof one day. we saw it fly right by us. strange....i'm sure he was lost!

Love seeing photo's from your first class!!!! Looks like such a hit! SO happy for you! I am so glad that the night terrors stopped. I bet it was that medicine. Did you know in Canada they took that off the shelves for all sorts of reasons?

Hi ivy, I'm the one that came in the store while you had your class. Thanks for letting my daughter jump in. She loved getting to stamp the doggies. Hope we can take a class from you soon.
