Look What I Found….

It is amazing what you will find when cleaning out a closet in “my scraproom”

I have been re-organizing and re-introducing myself to supplies I may have forgotten I even had.  Boy did I find a dozy.

In a previous blog post I was talking about the reason I have not done workshops or clubs in the past was two-fold.

1. It was a least a $200.00 investment out of my pocket just for supplies

2. Lack of students or people not showing up even after the RSVP

I found a 2006 batch of pre-cut card workshop kits! 

 

The above cards are very pretty but my demo cards in 2006 … well just sucked!  In 2006 my card making skills were almost non-existent but I was trying, really really trying.

It took a couple of hours tonight and a little research to find out what each pattern is but here  is the updated 2010 version.

Now why am I showcasing cards made with retired paper and retired stamps?  Well a couple of reasons, I do not want to waste this paper or a chance to be a little more creative and since these are retired I am going to finish making the other 4 kits I found and use the 6-card set as  an extra thank – you for my customers that place orders of $200.00 or more during 2010.
