Wow, time just flies, doesn’t it? I made a bunch of cards back in February to have in my sister’s shop during Valentine’s Day and just remembered about them. I took photos of them before I sent them with her. Lately when I get started making cards I seem to make a bunch at a time. I am such a slow crafter and such a perfectionist that I take forever to finish anything so I get really excited when I finish a bunch of cards at once. Once again I am going to share the love…
February, March and April…

by The CatMy mom has always wanted to take cake decorating classes. I’ve been off and on interested and decided we would take the plunge. We just happened to catch a half price classes sale at Joann’s and we signed up for the Beginner Basics I class. I am not all that impressed with the way Joann’s in Frisco runs their classes, but we are learning a lot and having fun. We learned the Wilton Rose this past week:
I thought it would be more challenging since I am left-handed, but it didn’t really make a difference. The instructors just let you play and help guide you, rather than making you do it ‘exactly’ the way you are supposed to. I think I ate the equivalent of two or three roses while I worked. It was very efficient to just lick off the ones you messed up on.
We learned how to make a great icing and I added almond flavoring to mine. I LOVED it!
