Me oh my how can we handle all the fun!?

Alright so it's absolutely unacceptable that it's been so long since I've blogged! I mean since the time I've been gone I've even met Stephanie Meyer and Shannon Hale and I can't come blog about it? The shame!!!!!! I promise I'll work on catching up a wee bit at a time over the next week, after all I finally have stuff to blog about!

HOWEVER! What brings me out of hibernation this fine day? Well it's a party of course! I'm so excited about this I can't even tell you! Domestic Bliss is hosting a Bohemian Bliss Soiree & Vagabond Market!

Friday, May 15th 7-10

At first I rolled my eyes same as you at the thought of "dressing up" and going--but after some thought I just got so excited! Something DIFFERENT to do in Mesa! SHOCKER! Let's support thinking outside the box, a great catered party, a home tour of the Alber's new bungalow and amazing artists!

You can view the large invitation (made by your's truly) here!

 

Me and my sister are going to be making hats Tuesday May 12th at 7:30! You DON'T HAVE to wear a hat but we're going to have a blast making them! Really honestly and truly the only thing you need to do to dress up is wear your nicest pants, your brightest shirt and all the jewelry you can without falling over!

Seriously, join us for an amazing night out with the girls!

Save the date!

You can even participate in our ATC swap at the end of class if you would like! (ATC's make great cards, tags, thank you notes, brag books, place card holders and more!!!) You can even join us with your laptop if you'd rather make them digitally!

(Examples for sample purposes only, you'll have many choices of supplies)

What are artist trading cards? (From Squidoo.com)   In the simplest of terms, art cards are small format, miniature pieces of art.  They are paintings, drawings, collages, handmade prints, altered art, assemblages... they come in most any medium, in any style, from anywhere in the world.  And they all have only one thing in common... art cards are 2.5" x 3.5"
Class Kit includes supplies to make 2 ATC cards but we'll have many more supplies available for you in our ATC Emporium!

(Class Fee $5+, Studio Fee $25--$15 for scheduling from my blog)
