Ok, so they are officially calling it Craft and Connect, but…..
After the bumpy start yesterday….okay, so it was a HUGE pot hole in the road….I am excited to get down on the showroom floor and check out the new goodies from all of the vendors. I will do my best to Instagram/Facebook from the floor. (I have them linked so it will show on both. Sarah, my nearly 13 year old IG expert, has tried to teach my Instagram. Time will tell f this old dog can be taught these new tricks!
Here is the project I taught yesterday. It was a fun mini album that requires minimal measuring (cuz of the measuring allergy that has reached epidemic proportions!). The people in my class were all awesome and seemed to all have a great time!
Next up is the perfect container for the Pocket Fold Album…..
This one is a part of the Magic Garden Series….the Wizard House! Using Graphic 45 Steampunk Spells! I think the magical little wizard that lives in this one has a bit of a mean streak as this was the project that started the chain of events at the airport…though I knew it would have issues even as i made it. I am soooo happy with the results! And before you ask…..YES, this will one will have kits and a pattern and I will be ordering for it here at the show. I am working on the schedule as for when. I am thinking in September, after the Autumn Fairy House. (The Tooth Fairy House will be next)….
Still not sure if I can Usteam from the show tomorrow….stay tuned. I will post here on the blog if it is a go or not.

HI, are you going to be making the Steampunk Spells album on a future ustream show? It is so cute I would love to make one too. Also, love the Wizard House it looks awesome. Thanks!!
OHmygosh, LOVE those!!! love love! Ya, my son is disgusted with me because I have yet to GRASP the challenge that is called Instagram. I have figured out how to put a picture in it on my iphone and play with it..that’s about it. LOL! You are never alone in the technology challenged dept. Have a great time and I’m sorry about the chipboard debacle!! yikes!
The buzz has already started online about your Graphic 45 class project! I have seen numerous oohs and ahhhs and when will it be available in kit/tut!! The debacle at the airport made me think of the line ” the wizard is a wizard after all!” And she is!!
Holy Jetski, Batman ….. that wizard house is absolutely, positively fantastic. It has to wow the pants off anyone who sees it. Congrats on an amazing project and an even more amazing recovery from the great chipboard debacle. I’d still have the shakes if it was me. Enjoy your time at the show! eileen
Omg omg omg i want and need both! Im in love with it both the album and the wizard house! You have an amazing brain and so happy you share with us. Stay safe and keep us posted. Hugs from the crazy dutch ladybug 😉
Wow this wizard house has got to be knocking the socks off of everyone who sees it. It definitely knocked mine off!!!!! It was definitely worth loosing chipboard over. Glad your class was such a success and hope you are enjoying the show right about now. Sure hope you will be able to broadcast tomorrow. We are all keeping our fingers crossed.
Hugs,
Marcie

My jaw hit the floor, bounced back, re-hit the floor, re-bounced back, re-re hit the floor, re-re-bounced it back for at least a gazillion times (after that I lost count).
Great project Laura (when words fail go back to basics :-). )
