The post includes a link as well to all of Kathy Cano Murillo's appearances with Duncan.

The first day's Make and Takes requires a ticket-It is a Wire Jewelry Mini Kit that includes tools!

And I would like to personally invite you to my Make and Take at which you will be able to play with needle felting using recycled wool sweaters with Clover's fabulous needle felting tools to promote my up coming book Sweater Surgery.
And
I will be hosting a Make and Take with Swarovski beads to promote the book by Laura McCabe-Creating Crystal Jewelry with Swarovski.

There is lots more so be sure to print out the full schedule!

CHA- Flashback 2007- A good way to end Friday

OK this is just too funny-thanks again to my good friend and fellow designer Maria Delpinto for these super silly pictures from the trade shows we attend.

Two weeks to go to this years CHA 2008!

Crafting by Mother Nature and Leela

This is what I walked out to a few mornings ago! A fine bit of crafting by Mother Nature. These pictures were taken on my camera phone and lets just say the tech support people at Verizon rocked and very patiently talked me though how to email the pictures to myself on my computer.

And then for all ya'll that partake in the elixirs of life, here is a cocktail that was crafted by Leela-Belly dancer extraordinaire!

Silky Panties:
-Grey Goose Vodka
-Mango juice
-Fresh Lime zest
with a champagne floater
Garnish with fresh mango

Yummmmmmmmmmm!

Behind the scenes with Jamie in Scrapbook lounge

Since everyone liked the behind the scenes photo of Jeanie Sumerall-Ajero of the Stellar Starburst webisode.

I thought I would post another. This time of me and Jamie Webb of Printworks Collection rehearsing for his webisode, Friendship Photo Card.


And just because you may be wondering why I am wearing a fur coat-it is freezing cold on set behind the lights and I am a total pansy when it comes to the cold.

But so you don't think I went out and bought a fur coat, it is a hand-me-down from my grandmother. Here she is in all her glory. Incidentally she was way-crafty! The stash of Styrofoam trays she had in her house for crafting purposes rivaled the leaning tower of Pizza!

Stay warm!

My favorite thing I saw at TNNA 2008 Cross stitch belt buckles

These are just too cool for words! They are cross stitch belt buckles and the patterns are rockin'
They are from Unique NZ Designs

I will be posting all sorts of fun stuff I saw there and silly pictures we took! It was a great day.
