Remember how John Petersen's Holiday Star Book class was rescheduled for this month and changed to a Valentine's Star Book? If you haven't signed up for this class, you'll be sorry. This is one special Valentine for someone very special, or as a display piece in your home. Take a look.

Sunday, January 18, 12pm to 4pm, VALENTINE'S STAR BOOK
John Petersen $40
The Star Book returns to Art ’n Soul by popular demand, this time with a
Valentine's theme!
Join us in class for creating your own personalized Star Book, complete
with your own photograph in a resin frame, set with ICE Resin. You’ll learn how
to use Prima’s new texture pastes and sprays while mastering this binding
technique that includes book pages as well. Please bring 2 copies of a laser/
photo copy (no inkjet or actual photos) of your favorite Valentine image that 
measures 3 x 4 inches. (originally scheduled Sunday, December 7)

Now that you've looked, please stop by the Art 'n Soul or call the store (360.357.6820) to sign up! I'm planning on being there!


Look at this beautiful card made with the 'double glitter' technique and stencils from Dreamweaver Stencils.

Dina Kowal continues to amaze me. She has made a mini-ATC book using new stamps from Impression Obsession.

Now that the Christmas season is behind us, the colors used for this card are quite appealing to me. Blue and white seem to always seem so fresh.

I missed this card from yesterday's post from Kittie Caracciolo; I love how she worked in the bench and grass dies.

And how sweet is this card by Vicki Garrett. A jar full of 'candy' in happy spring colors is perfect for a child's Easter card or other occasion.

Here's the link to Vicki's post which tells you with dies were used:

Now that you've seen this wonderful cards using stamps and dies from Impression Obsession's new release, come on over to Art 'n Soul to pore through the new catalog and make up an order of the stamps and dies that you want for your collection!



On the Magenta blog, a salt and ink technique on watercolor paper is used. Don't you love it? Which reminds me to ask you, have you been in to see the latest release and submitted a pink sheet order? Pam's at the store all day tomorrow and would love to help you.

That's all for tonight. I am hoping to fly into Anaheim tomorrow for the CHA Show. I'll be taking it very slow and easy, and I'm sure I'll be taking several photos to share with you in the coming days.
