I'm so excited for today!
Carrie and I are getting pedicures this morning,
and I'm taking an art class this afternoon.

By the end of today I'll have
pretty toes and happy hands.

Donna Downey {a designer for Prima} is teaching a few classes at my local scrapbook store {Paper Vineyard} this weekend. I signed up for her Fabric Scrapbooking class and I'm so glad the day is finally here!
This is not a photo of my project! It's a picture I got from Donna's website that shows an example of what we'll be creating today. (Check out her site and click on "Video Workshops." I might have to download one of those real soon...)
I'm particularly excited about this class because of the potential it has for pointing me in a new direction. Ok...not a complete new direction, but something new to add to the direction that I'm already headed... (mmm...did that make sense?) And I know Rinda will be proud of me. I'm going to be using gesso and gel medium for the first time ever (yikes and yay).
:o) ♥
PS: You just have to check out Prima's website to see the yummy flowers on the home page slide show!
PSS: Creative dry spell is over!

That looks like such a fabulous workshop. Donna Downey is one of my favourite designers and I feel more than a little jealous of your day full of treats!
Sounds like you are going to have fun! Isn't it good to learn new things? Looking forward to seeing what you come home with!
Looks like a wonderful class....enjoy.
wow, that looks like a lot of work..so many materials to bring too. I think you will have a busy and exciting afternoon. :-)
Savannah and I are going to do your mini book tutorial today since Tim is at work. :-)
love Donna's work - sounds like a wonderful day
Go Debbie, Go Debbie! (somehow it's closer to the original song than Go Deb! Go Deb!).
I'm sure you'll have a blast - I've heard great things about Donna Downey.
I hope you enjoy peeling the gel medium off your fingertips later on . . . it's a real throwback to elementary school days for me!
Oh, you lucky thing! What a wonderful way to spend a saturday. I'm looking forward to a blog post all about it..
Enjoy your day...sounds just perfect to me...& I really must find out what Gesso is & what it does!!!
What an exciting day on all fronts! I love pedicures and I've been a fan of Donna's for a long while - even though her style has changed over the years I really like her philosophy and she always uses wonderful colour - have a fabulous time :-)
Yeah for your fun Saturday! Hope it was all you wanted.
WHAT?!! so jealous...
Hi Deb,
I've been MIA, but I always look forward to coming over here to see what you've been up to. I can't wait to see the finished project from your class. I'm sure it will be adorable.
I loooooved the "all about me" project in the Alltoids box. Completely wonderful!!! As were the graduation cards you made. I wish I had your energy.
Have a great Memorial Day weekend.

Oooh, envy!
Hope you had a fab time!
I KNOW that you had a great day. I took a class with Donna last year. She's great. Can't wait to see YOUR book.
Wow! Sounds like a really amazing workshop. I love Donna's style and always read her blog; how fun to meet her in person! Hope you share what you create in class :)
