I will be flying out tomorrow morning to teach my Brayer workshops in Colleyville, Texas, Woohoo!  I hope those Texans are ready to get down to do some brayering.  Ready or not, here I come.  🙂

***********************************************************

I didn’t want to leave without putting up some blog candy for you.

This week I have a highly sot after Stampin’ Up! Stamp set for you, Branch Out.  This set is now retired.  I love, love, love this set and have used it in so many card tutorials.

Along with the stamp set I am giving away a card that features one of the Branch Out stamps.  This card is an original card designed and made by me.  Don’t get to excited about that card, lol. 

To enter the Blog Candy contest, please leave a comment at the bottom of this post telling me to enter you.   If you are getting this blog update via e-mail, please click on this link and then leave your comment:   CLICK HERE

Please no e-mail entries.  Thank you.

I will select the winner upon my return on Tuesday, March 30, 2010 using a random number generator. 

Good Luck!

May your weekend be filled with Joy and Laughter.  🙂 

Until my next post. . . . .  . . . .

Huge Hugs,

Michelle

    So why shouldn’t we be too excited about the card? Did you really mess up and it just looks great in the photo? Well, anybody would love to get one of your pieces anyway. Can’t wait for your class in Virginia in June. Take care in your travels.

    I love love love your cards. I cannot wait until you are closer to Nashville. This is awesome blog candy. I have tried your techniques and just love the comments I get on them. Of course I tell everyone it’s yours! I just copy well. I think learning exactly how by taking a course in brayer would make it much easier to try. Thanks for all the ideas, you are truly a new inspiration for me.
