More Pirate-y Goodness!

Here is another card I made for Talk Like a Pirate Day, but forgot to scan and post.

I used a couple of my new stamps from The Cat's Pajamas!



Also, one of Lily's cards ... using the skull/swords from TCP and the A Muse "ahoy matey". (note the drawing inside - it's Pirate Lily, with an eye patch and hook!)




(psst - if you look closely, you can see the color of my craft room! I know, I know ... I need to post pictures!)

Fun Times!

I taught two classes at Pretty Paper on Saturday. Only two students, but they're the best students (and quickly becoming "regulars") so that's okay!

*waves to Dawn & Karen*


Dawn, me, Karen

A woman named Sherry joined us just as we were starting the second class - so glad she made it!

We made 5 cards in each class - Sparkles & Spooks and Frightful & Delightful. Here are a few!


Catwoman!


Sparkly ingredients!


Pumpkin Baby!


Boris!

Had LOTS of fun, ladies. And thanks again for lunch, Dawn!

Arr!

Ahoy! I missed Talk Like a Pirate day on Tuesday, mates!

Lily and I had fun making pirate themed cards. I'll have to upload the pic I took of one of hers. So cute!

I dropped her off at her friend's house that morning (she rides to school with them), and as she was getting out of the car I told her to "walk the plank" and called her "skurvy". Hahaha. We were both in giggles as she shut the door.

I think it should be Talk Like a Pirate day every day!

PS - Check out Heather's cool Pirate post! The cupcake toppers are just TOO cute!
