Class projects...

Hey everyone!
Long time no see...sorry for that! I have been really busy developing some classes for upcoming events and trying to organize the trips. I have more projects to finish for Live with Prima , but I will share those later....

Here are a few of the classes I will be teaching in Europe. I have a layout class using the new Sun Kiss collection, with fun embellishments and cool techniques. I love the colors in this line --they are so pretty....



This is a sweet mini album I made using the new Nature Garden collection, with matching chipboard pieces, mixture of flowers and bling. I am also teaching this class in Pittsburgh for the Sweet Retreat...Sharon and I will both be there teaching our classes, with make and takes, canvas projects, mixed media journal and more! Plus there will be cupcakes, catered lunch, lots of sponsors, goodie bags and more! Check it out here: http://yourmemorieshere.com/



And last but not least-this is the brand new Art Journal Prima released at CHA! This journal came out better than I ever expected....I am using Pan Pastels, Ranger Perfect Pearl sprays, Prima chalk inks, stamps and more in this book.

I have more classes coming up in Cornwall Ontairo Canada the beginning of may as well. I will post those classes at a later time once I get more information. If you live in any of the areas in Europe where we are touring, please join us! Sharon will be in Tel Aviv, then we will both be in Spain, Holland, France, Norway and Switzerland

You can see where we will be here: http://prima.typepad.com/prima/2012/02/prima-euro-tour-2012.html

Have a great night everyone!

CHA projects and upcoming events...

Hey friends!
Sorry it's been so long since I have posted....where has January gone? LOL! I have been so busy getting ready for CHA and Live with Prima has kept me busy. I also have some classes and events coming up in the next few months that I have been getting ready for...

Sharon and I are teaching in Europe for Prima! I will share more details on that soon...so excited!

And then we are teaching at an event in Pittsburgh, called Sweet Retreat. The retreat is all inclusive and the price is super affordable! Visit the main page here to get details: http://www.yourmemorieshere.com/pages/SweetRetreat.htm
We will be getting Kristina some photos of the projects very soon! There will be a meet and greet Friday night with mini project stations...and of course some sweet treats :) Saturday will be a full day of creativity--3 main classes with full on projects, including canvas, art mediums and tons of Prima...plus goodie bags, meals and there is an Ikea right next to the hotel with tons of other shopping...awesome! Check out the page and see if it's something you can do for yourself. I promise it will be an inspiring weekend full of inspiring projects and techniques!

I wanted to share a couple of projects I have been working on for CHA. This first layout is using the new En Francais Collection. I love the mixed neutral tones with pops of color. This line is perfect if you have boys! I cut up a pair of jeans that were old and used a piece for part of my background. Then I layered papers and chipboard accents along with some fabric flowers that work well with this line. The textures really set the tone for the design....



And then I created these tags using the Songbird Collection. I debuted these tags on the first CHA Sneak Peek show this month on Live with Prima, but I wanted to share them again. I mixed in some old book paper, seam binding (colored with Broken China Distress Stain) and twine. The colors of this line are so soft yet earthy. It's one of my favorites from this release by Prima...

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope to have more news and projects to share soon!

xoxo Cari
