Mind you the night before we left for CHA we all went for Happy Hour to El Presidente - my favourite Mexican restaurant near to Mary's. Three Margarita's later Jo, Caz and I were singing the night away.
Not quite sure what Caz is doing - maybe trying to see if she is still sober by touching her nose in a straight line?

Mary hates photos being taken
BUT NOW TO CHA
1. Technique Filled Card Making Class - made some cards but not really to my taste - wouldn't have said I learned any new techniques. When I find them I will post them so you can see.
2. Cool Tools/Hot Techniques - more cards but this time using felt which seems to be the up and coming thing so watch out.
3. Steampunk Mixed Media Album - a fabulous book using Graphic 45 papers with gears and watch parts from Stanislaus Imports.
I should have done four that day but the first one was 8 am and uit was much too early for us to get to the Convention Centre in Downtown LA, register and get to class 15 minutes before it was due to start. I am so sorry I missed it but it could not be helped.
I was so disappointed that I had not been able to do the Ranger Class as it was the first time in quite a few years I had not been able to get on (you will understand - this class must have been booked up within 5 minutes of it being posted) but I did sit near to a lovely young lady from Holland who allowed me to take photographs of what she had done in the class.
No prizes for guessing that this was Sir Tim's section.
Think this was Wendy's section. Unfortunately cannot find Claudine's section so here is a photograph of one of the most delightful young ladies you will ever meet.
Can you believe this was taken at the end of the day? She was so bright, cheerful and chatty when most of us were dead on our feet. Claudine rocks!
Not got a photograph of Tim Holtz this time but there will be one coming towards the end of the month so watch this space.
Think I had better leave it there so will just upload some photographs of the Ranger booth to whet your appetite for what can be done by those talented artists who work so hard to make the stand so exciting.
Want to make one of these
Love these
Fantastic Displays
Right, going to leave it there for now as "bed" is calling but tomorrow I will upload some more - Graphic 45 (as usual) stole the show for me with their stand. Ab Fab!
