sugar and spice

I know I've sid it before.....but where has the time gone??? I can't believe we're already in July, I'm off to CHA in a couple of weeks (I know, I know it's a chore, but someone has to do it) just feel sorry for me in 96 degree heat, no seriously, I don't like the heat!!! Still getting kits together for the upcoming classes, there's sooo many. Thought I'd give you sneeky peek (I love these sneeky peeks) of a few new papers just in they are so pretty and the Rusty pickle ones are just brilliant, had a class with them last night and the girls loved them. Come and see them for yourself. I would recommend if you're on a stash diet to enter with your hands behind your back as they are rather tempting. Nina is BACK from Glastonbury (ALLEGEDLY) she has been spotted, I'm sure we'll see her when she's caught up on all her sleep, I don't know these young-uns, and yay!! she had sunshine. Welcome banck Nina.

Here is the teen-siest little peek of the doodling LO we will be creating at Sugar and Spice. This will be in the shop this Friday for you to get a full peek at and of course to sign up for the class. We will be doing a variety of 'doodles' which, I promise are easy!! Or if you aren't feeling all that confident I have a super cheats way of 'doodling'.... Hope to see you all there! Paulax

Had a really busy weekend, getting together the kits for the upcoming classes, Paula joined us today and worked like crazy getting together her classes. Fabianna was also in with Adrienne, a lot of girlie giggling going on and Fabbi supplied us with sandwiches, fruit and cakes, what can I say, BELISSIMO !! Fabbi was putting the finishing touches to her all day class on 31st August "FABBI'S FLIP, FLAP AND NO FLOP" album, she also teaches you how to make another mini album out of your leftover chipboard from the first one, WOW, does it get any better !!! Nina's off to that crazy hippie festival, what's it called ??? oh yes Glastonbury (I just had to ask ricky) God I'm sooo old. We've all got our fingers crossed that the weather is good for you, have a FANTASTIC time and don't FORGET your SHEWEE !!!! Maggie's back from Florida, looking rather tanned and very healthy and she bought me back my Lucky Charms, if you haven't tried them you'll have ...

Been really BUSY with PAULA today working on the new TECHNIQUES CLASS, actually what I should have said there was, PAULA's been really busy today working on the TECHNIQUES class and WOW!!! it's looking fantastic. I'm getting really excited about all the new classes, it's given me a bit of a headache as there is SOOOO many of them, but HEY! that's what you asked for and we listened. Also getting excited about going out to CHA again, I've never been to the summer one I usually go to the winter one and Memory Trends in Vegas, Hope to be reporting back on all the lovely goodies. Had a great day out on Monday with Nina and Paula, we spent the day with Lance Anderson from Rusty Pickle and came back with a couple of great mini books. They were really paying attention. Oh! and the food was delicious, even though I didn't get the cheesecake !!!

Had a lovely day off today, thanks mum !!! went to Lakeside with Adrienne and have decided what to wear for the PYJAMA CROP on the 12th, decided that I won't look good in regular PJ's have gone for the FUNNY/DOWNRIGHT ridiculus version. For those of you attending DON'T LAUGH !!! well, OK maybe you won't be able to help yourself, But know this.... it's not my real nightime attire, honest. For those of you not attending, don't worry I'm sure there will be pictures posted on here. Had rather a lot of garlic at lunch time, CAFE ROUGE is wonderful and I recommend the Limon Presse, how refreshing. Back to the grind tomorrow, well actually yes it's hardwork but not really a grind. Speak soon

This class is running on the 20th of July in the morning, you can make a whole day of it though... and join our jacobs ladder class in the afternoon too! Thats if your hubbie won't go absoultely mental about the amount of time you spend with paper and adhesive ;) This sneaky~peek of a class will be displayed in the shop real, real soon! It's a LO that uses lots of techniques, it involves alot of sewing which is pretty big right now and i'm officially reviving sponge painting :) You will need two/three/four small piccies which have people/pets you love who live or come to your home. These will be semi hiddem behind windows; so no best pics please! It works well with pre-digital prints and digital pics that aren't tooooooo close up. These can either be black and white or colour, I have used a mixture. We will be using the new fancy pants papers which are a little grunge but suit this whimsical LO. See you all there! Paula x
