Each meeting, I make my club members a little thank you gift that also can give them new ideas about how to use their materials in different ways. Since this was our last club meeting of 2011, I altered the cover of new 2012 pocket calendars. The ladies loved having new calendars and liked the idea of giving these as gifts for Christmas. Because this is such a 'sassy' group of ladies, I just had to pull Sassy Suzie off of the retired shelf and ink her up again. I also used various 'girl power' sentiments from Favorite Thoughts which is also retired.
Recipe: Cardstock-whisper white, bashful blue, retired DSP, Ink-Stazon black, wild wasabi, various markers, Stamp Sets-Sassy Suzie, Favorite Thoughts, Accessories-basic rhinestones
My site is named after my Black Lab, Shadow. Shadow received his name by being my constant shadow including while I am crafting. The running joke in my family was that due to the whole 'Labs shed A LOT', everything I created had a signature 'Shadow' hair hidden somewhere... While Shadow is no longer with us, I am lovingly reminded of him every time a random hair shows up in my craft room. Like our loved ones, Lab hair never really leaves us and that is a pretty comforting thought!
Hahahaha...LOVE THIS!
