R & D, Part Two

I am certain that some of you are pretty tired of hearing me talk about the "Doodle, too" classes, but I assure you that I am on the edge of being done and almost ready to give you all of the details, and 90% finished with the handouts and technique sheets, well, that is until I got a box from Tracy at Helmar...

The first of many products I will be playing with is the Helmar Decoupage, which is very similar to the "other product" I had been using (rhymes with bod dodge). 

 
and I thought it would be a good idea to conduct a little R & D on myself.  Here is a little look into one of the projects that I will be including in the "Doodle, too" class.

Now, some of you are expressing your concerns regarding "my writing" and that "your book will not look my book" because your writing is not like mine.

Well, you know that I always tell you that "if your book looked just like my book, then it would not really be your book" and that rule still "kinda" applies to this class, BUT I do have some techniques and "new products" that will help your book look a little "similar" to my book...so I hope that helps...but that is all I can say for now, you know...until I can tell you more.

THANK YOU Helmar....There will be many more projects to come!

Q & A Tuesday:Sizzix

Thank you all for the great responses in regards to the new line from Sizzix.  The original concept was "doodled" long, long ago and then this past summer in Chicago, the line debuted and for the girl who never even used die cuts, the entire display gave me "butterflies" and still makes me smile.

 
 
I love these because as I look at them, each one reminds me of someone or something but I also love them because they cut paper (of course!) and burlap...and chipboard...and rubber...and foam...and fabric...and felt! Here are some visuals of just a few of the things I have been creating as the dies started to trickle in:

  
and THANKS for the great response to the little Valentine Mini Kits...They are all gone but I PROMISE that there are MORE to come!!! Make sure that YOU are subscribing to my Newsletter to get the info as the MIni Kits as they are released!
