Help, please...

My husband had these sitting on his desk for so long & I finally investigated what they were??

It turns out they are a chocolate holder, of sort - these happened to have Ferraro's in them!!

How cute would they look with petals around them?

Id love to know where they can be purchased because I suddenly have some mo-jo surrounding them!!

And of course, once I find out, I'll let you know, too - Caring is sharing & sharing the love, right? 

Where The Wild Things Are...

I was at a team meeting last week & the theme for creations was Halloween. 

I literally didn't get that memo so I turned up un-prepared, oops!!

But I am very blessed to have a wonderful group of women who share their ideas, stamp sets & cardstock with me, so I was able to come away with these examples!!

Colouring them with the Stampin' Blends was therapeutic too!! I do like to colour and then fussy cut!

Im just not sure of what to make with them, so they are sitting on the desk, watching all that I do at the moment, lol!!

As soon as I saw this little guy, he reminded me of a childhood story: Where The Wild Things Are. It's a story that still stands today & I read it to the children that I work with, during the week!

So as I mentioned, I have no idea what will become of these little creatures, but I will certainly show them off when I do!!

Thanks for looking!

Jo.

Adult Learner's Week - Sep 2019

I was asked to run a card making class to the adult participants at the Neighbourhood Centre that I work at. I usually wear a Child Care Co-Ordinators hat, but it was a great change to work in a different role, during Adult Learner's Week.

I decided that the card I wanted to show was: 

(1) reasonably easy for all crafting levels of Learners,

(2) I needed the card to be easy to explain, for the various levels of English present,

(3) I knew I would have around 25 students, so it couldn't have too many steps involved.

So this is the card I chose! 

 There was such a mix of participants & just like at other classes, some worked out how to use the double sided tape quick, while others needed help.

 There was a real buzz as everyone decided which stamp to use & how the process of putting a card together worked.

 For quite a few people, they had either NEVER made a card like this or they haven't done this type of creation for so long...

 But the results were fantastic!!

 Some even made two!!

 This gentleman told me that he had made cards before & knew what to do. And he did!!

How big is her smile, it's so infectious!!

What a great class it was! 35 people of about 18 countries made their card & left with it to give to someone they care about!!

This is exactly what SU! is all about!!
