We are not allowed to take pictures at a Zumba Class, but this instructor was so nice to let my niece take pictures.  You are the best Kim....

Zumba in Sacramento

Lake Tahoe with niece and hubby....

This was taken at a candy store in Old Sacramento.  I got a big kick out of this sign.  There was candy everywhere and you could easily sample so the sign set us straight... lol

I got a big kick out of this sign at a Candy Shop.  We took pictures of this sign about 9 times because it was a glare on the words.  The manager said, "you ladies are making me mighty nervous".

Well I had a wonderful trip to Sacramento to visit my niece and her husband.  My sister and her husband were there also and we all stayed in the same house and no one got killed.  It was a very nice getaway.  This is my niece and her husband.  The scenery is from Lake Tahoe.  I've never been there before.  It was so beautiful.

How about this piece which is two sided.  One side is a picture of a  Palm Tree which matches my tattoo on my right shoulder and it's a mirror on the other side which means that I can put on lipstick   anywhere and any time.  HA HA H A HA   

I was having more problems inserting these pictures then I had doing this project.   It was lots of fun and I learned a lot of technics.  Hope my brain doesn't burn out.  lol tee hee hee

Mrs. McGraw REALLY, REALLY, REALLY knows her stuff!!!!!!  P.S.  I read all the comments.  Thanks to you all for the nice remarks.  Now I have to learn how to send comments.  I'm getting there.....

Triangle Bracelet

This wasn't an easy project for me.  But I finished it.  (Triangle Bracelet)  Looks kind of  Cute.

I really had a Great time in class today, because I learned how to use the Steel Stamping Set.  On this piece, that's just what I did (learned, because there are NO spaces in between words. HA HA HA HA  But I love my bracelet just the same.  The stamped words are: MUSIC IS JUST LOVE LOOKING FOR WORDS   The second picture shows the Texture I used.....Can't wait for the next project with stamping on it.  Then I can say, How Do You Like Me Now!!!!!
