I also purchased this stamp tile from The Stampsmith and have permission from the owner, Estelle to blog about it. She sends Rubber Hugs by the way.
So I think I'm pretty prepared, don't you?? Now because I am prepared, the morning of the workshop, I'll probably wake up paralyzed or throwing up or something. Isn't that always the way?? teehee. Wish me luck, Wish you were coming with. xoSusan
Ohhhh . . . I wish I could come along too, Susan! You've assembled an awesome array of gorgeous renaissance ephemera. Thanks for giving us a peek at your gorgeous goodies. Have fun and tons of luck! Hugs, Terri
ReplyDeleteWow - you are definitely prepared, Susan ! What treasures you have found for this class. I am sure it will make the inspiration flow smoothly as you play with Lynn ! I was lucky enough to take a class with her and Anne Bagby in Mexcio a few years ago - The Ultimate Painted Page - you are in for a treat ! Lynne is very generous with her knowledge, her attention and her encouragement. Plus, she has such unbelievable talent, you just kind of absorb stuff being around her.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy !
