Once again the Craft and Hobby industry rolls out the new products for the first half of the year in Anaheim, California! It's exciting and fun and will make my mind swirl with ideas for new classes for later in the spring and summer! I love seeing all the products that the manufacturers have come out with and it's especially fun to see lots of friends in the industry and get to chat and catch up.
I fly out VERY early tomorrow morning... I get to Los Angeles by 10:30am so you know I'm leaving early! On Saturday Michelle and I are taking two classes at French General in Los Angeles. I'm excited to be a student for a day! I'll take lots of pictures! After the trade show, I'll be heading down to San Diego for classes the next weekend at Michelle's store Paper Tales. I'm so looking forward to seeing everyone there... a little birdie told me that there may be some who are coming from across the country for the classes!! We're going to have a great time in their new space and I've heard that there is a very special cupcake bar planned! Hope to see you there!
I've gotten all my work done here at home getting ready as much as I could for my upcoming classes in France! As soon as I get home from California, I'll be packing the kits and then they'll start their trip across the ocean. AND just a few days after I get home, Brandon and Alicia will be home for two weeks leave!! Can't wait to see them!!
Here's two of the new classes I designed for Version Scrap in France...
This first one is called the Altered Fabric Photo Album and I'm teaching it in Lyon (and will bring any extra kits to Paris!)
and the second one is the 7gypsies Memory Collector Portfolio that I'll be teaching in Paris. I'll let you know if I have any kits leftover!

I hope you have a great trip. I love both kits -- would love to know if you have any extras!
