friends

Last night I taught my monthly Quick & Classy course at Kiwiscraps. The theme for this month was "Friends" and we made the following 2 layouts. People had to leap far out of their comfort zones on this one--glitter, stamping, sewing, inking, paper glass, handwriting--but in all a happy crowd.

Journaling (layout 1)
margaret & i we are cut from the same cloth.

when i count my blessings, i count you twice.

sisters not by birth...but by virtue of our uncanny similarities (inside & out--just check out those mouths, gums & all). we just get each other.

at age 30, 6000 miles from home and in desperate need of a friend, i found a "little" sister i hadn't realized i'd lost.

Journaling (layout 2)
life is about sharing.

sweet.
smart.
independent.
shy.
strong.
motherly.
they are the glittery giggle girls.

caroline & julia, i hope this is the beginning of a lifelong friendship.

So we used the old beat up sewing machine that David bought off Trade Me. Believe it or not, it began sewing while no one was anywhere near the thing. Incredibly spooky. I think it wasn't at all pleased about the whole sewing on paper rather than fabric thing.
