Good Morning all,

Well It will be a slight catch-up day.....I have been gone since early am last Thursday....I have not even been by the blogs yet. Got home late Monday night and had to work Tuesday all day to teach Tuesday night at the AAS store in Chesapeake VA. The class went wayyyyyy over I did not even get home till 2am. So here I am this morning trying to catch-up.

This weekend was FABULOUS>>>>>I mean just FABULOUS. I spent the whole weekend in classes at ART BLISS in Sterling Va. Was able to work with some AMAZING talented teachers and students. Oh my...just fun times. My first class started off with Melissa Manley. I took two classes with her....just perfect spent all day Saturday in here class then all evening in her other class. She ROCKS!!!! She is so AMAZING and just down to earth and I laughed alot....mainly because when she teaches it reminds me of myself when I teach. SO I could just giggle thinking okay I am not the only one!!! LOL!!! JUST AWESOME!!! Check her out.... click on her name to view her site. She will also be teaching at Art and Soul. There were other amazing artist at the Art Bliss like Deryn Mentock and Kerry Bogert. On Sunday I took classes with Kerry Bogert and had a fabulous time...she is awesome just filled with knowledge and down to earth amazing!! She even signed my book she wrote...just wonderful.....check it out. Totally Twisted. I will be sharing pictures all week of my trip up to Sterling Va., Art Bliss and Washington DC.

She signed up for my first class back in Feb. and has been in everyone since...Beverly. Well I have been talking about the YUDU every since Provo Craft brought it out...well Beverly bought one and had not used it yet....so she said take it home and use it...well THANKS Beverly now I really want one!!!! LOVE IT!!! I made these cute tee's for the retreat....folks even said they would have bought one from me if I had made more. I used two cheapo tee's from M's and washed without fabric softener. Hung to dry....then went to work!! Using the Cricut alphas from Ashlyn's alphabet and Wall Decor and More I cut them in black and placed them on the YUDU then flashed the image....oh my fun fun fun!!!! Can't wait to get some more tee's. Also I used the fabulous I-Rock by Imaginisce . Love that tool!!! My dear friend Beverly bought it for me. Thanks Beverly. Oh well I must have talked your ears off...lol!!! Have a WONDERFUL INSPIRED Day of ART!!! Cyber Hugs, Dawn
