another online class....

I haven't finished the first one that was here, but I got an email for All My Memories about a new class - Book of Me - and decided that it was probably about time I did one!! And at the "introductory" price of only $US10, how could I go wrong?!

So, the first prompt was about the cover... deciding what album to use, and what papers to cover it in... Here's where I struggled! I'm a purple fan! And I love orange, green, pink and purple together... and with all the paper I have in my stash, you would think I have something that fulfills those requirements, right? WRONG! I went through every sheet, and couldn't decide on anything! Nothing leapt out of the drawers and into my lap... so I was stumped!

I wanted to play with the Kaisercraft album (below), which was great, cause there's two sections to the album (and three tabs), and finally I settled on the Kaisercraft paper "Ebony & Ivory" and playing with my watercolour pencils at last... except that my small pack of watercolours doesn't have purple! Eventually I remembered my Stampin' Up! chalks, and I was set! The tab says "easy stuff first", and the next section will say "now the hard stuff", and on the last tab I'll put "that's all folks!" I'm not sure if I should back the "me" with purple before covering the inside cover, I'm going to let that idea percolate overnight (I need more paper before I go too far with the album - 12 sections to complete [if they "speak" to me] means a trip to my LSS tomorrow)

Anyway, enough rambling, I'm off to start cooking macaroni and cheese for tea - I can't believe I hated it as a kid! Says heaps about my mum's cooking ~lol~
