March's Stampaganza is here!

Wow, Spring is gotta be here somewhere! Still using our wood stove to keep warm here, how about you? I have been having a blast putting together the Workshops Your Way in the Seasonal Expressions 1. 

This month's spotlight is on the beautiful Penelope! I can't begin to tell you how gorjus this paper is and how wonderful the Scrapbook layouts are and the adorable cards.

The pictures don't even do this paper justice. Check out this cute stamp set that works great with this paper. And it even has a Thin Cuts Dies to make cutting these cute critters out. You will need this Memento Stamp Pad to stamp the outlines with.

  Sorry, its not real clear, but, here is some of my cards I made and the critters I haven't used yet. I used the instructions for the Free Workshop outline you can download but, for some reason, I didn't cut things right so some of my cards are not exact and I made some mistakes on the layouts too. I guess that's what happens when I try to cut and work on this and try to talk at the same time. But, there again, who says they have to look exactly like the instructions. I have to do some tweaking on my pages anyway to fit my photos on. 

 Watch the video below to see how to paint and put the cards together. There are 3 more videos that show you step by step how to cut and assemble the whole workshop.

The Annual Inspirations is finished by the end of August and most of those stamp sets will be retiring also.
