January Play Date

Got together with some friends at Bizzy B yesterday for a play date.  Every month or so, we get together for an afternoon to make art.  Everyone brings whatever project they're working on and we just hang out and craft together.  Sometimes we work on the same thing, like the day we all took our gelli plates for a test drive, and other days, like yesterday, we do our own thing.  Whatever we're doing, there's always lots of cat, laughter and creativity going on!

Dianne brought mason jars for us to decorate with Xmas trees.

Here's what her finished creation looked like, isn't it fabulous?.

Kelly started one too:

but she had a few other projects on the go as well.

The finished jars are awfully pretty, I'm looking forward to making one.  I just wasn't in a Christmas mood yesterday, so instead I worked on finishing the entries in my 2013 calendar, using the Graphics 45 monthly sheets called "Place in Time". Here's a peek at the non-yet-finished page for August:

Barb was decorating toilet rolls (if you're signed up for Nathalie Kalbach's Creative Jumpstart 2014 and you've watched Suze Weinberg's lesson from January 4th, you'll know exactly what this is about.  If you're not signed up, it's not too late to jump in!)

Laura was painting faces.

As always, a fun time was had by all!  Thank you, ladies!
