CKU Rocked!!!!

Well Hell0ooooo!

I know it has been along time since I blogged -- I was reminded of that by my roomie at CKU!

Just got back and had an awesome time! Loved Tim's classes and in the future would make sure that I signed up for those first!!! I made a way cute picture ornament to wear and learned painting techniques. Then I bought a couple (6) dabbers to get me started -- If you have never used the dabbers from Ranger they are wonderful -- and this was my first painting experience and we all know how messy I am but it was so much fun!!!!

I took the Bazzill classes too and got 12 layouts done. Great products but was disappointed that it was not more technique with color-- that is was I was looking for.

Sketches with Becky Higgins was great-- I just love her! Did some more layouts and have homework to finish up (in my spare time)

My album track was Ali Edwards -Week in my life -- let me just say I learned that I am really very boring -- I do the same thing everyday but it made me appreciate me and I learned that scrapbook pages are basically pictures and words and that is all they have to be! It was so cool to meet Ali and see her albums. The album although not finished has all the basic elements completed and now it is just cropping the pictures down. I love the simplicity of it and until now have never done many pages about me much less a whole album. It was very refreshing and unnerving at the same time.

I joined a dorm and in the dorm contest we came in 3rd place -- got lots of free goodies and met lots of nice people.

I can't wait to go again -- perhaps I will go to the one in Houston next year-- maybe even get my sister to join me???
