Autumn and Halloween Classes

Happy first day of September everyone! Autumn will be upon us soonish, and I can't wait as it's my favorite season! I LOVE all the colors, the holidays, the food, the candy, the cooler days, and the warmer clothing! And, I love all the art projects associated with it, and here are three of the projects I am teaching during the season, using lots of new product just released.

1. Autumn and Halloween Vertigo Tags using lots of Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko, Sizzix, Stamper's Anonymous, and Tim Holtz Idea-ology products.
 





2. The Autumn Splendor Flip Frame, with 13 mixed media pages full of Autumn, Halloween, and Thanksgiving images made from Ranger, Wendy Vecchi, Idea-ology, Sizzix, Stamper's Anonymous, and Ken Oliver's Color Burst.


3. The Cryptic Candy Box, an altered Halloween candy keeper, made from tons of Idea-ology, Sizzix, and Ranger goodness.
 






My first stop is The Crafty Scrapper in Waxahachie, Texas, in September. For more information on the classes, or where else I am teaching please email me, or check out my calendar.

I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon, and if that's with me in a class, then I whole heartedly thank you!!!

12 Techniques With Gelatos

Yesterday, I taught a class to a bunch of fabulous ladies in my local area. They wanted to learn more about Faber-Castell Gelatos, so I came up with a sea themed tag with 12 techniques using them. Everyone did awesome, and they made me feel so good. I LOVE my job!
 
 
 
I totally forgot to take pics of the ladies and their projects...sorry. But if you look on my FB Page, Anita Houston's Crafty Place, some of the ladies uploaded their tags!

I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!
