New Banners



I’ve been in the studio creating again, this time trying to get ahead of the curve that high school and college graduation causes.  To that end, I started with some banners and then moved on to photo frames.

The banners are for sale at the ETSY Shop now, the photo frames will appear as soon as it quits raining in South Florida so I can take pictures!  Stay tuned…….

March Paper Niche Workshop

As soon as I saw Prima's Romance Novel line of paper I knew I'd use it for "something". That "something" turned into the workshops I'll be doing at Paper Niche in March.
 Lately. I've been doing album covers with sticky-back canvas and I knew I wanted to explore this binding technique in the workshop.  I also wanted to bring back the envelope base as I've had lots of requests to teach it. The great thing about the base is that you can use just about any size envelope to create an album.  That's what I like to teach, techniques that you can adapt and make your own.


This is a unique workshop.  It's spread over two Saturdays and you have the option of purchasing and attending one or both of the days.  Purchase the first workshop and you receive all the material you need to create the album including all the embellishments.  In the first workshop we'll create the cover using chipboard, sticky back canvas and tissue paper. We’ll also create the binding for the envelopes and assemble the album.

Purchase both workshops and join me on the second Saturday to create the embellishments and photo mats and decorate the interior of the album.
