Howdy bloggers!
After attending Paper Cowgirl this year, my craft senses were awaken. This was my second yea
r to attend Paper Cowgirl but my first to actually take some classes. My first class I took was was painting class to teach us to paint roses, which was awesome. Who knew that I could even paint at all. My flowers actually turned out looking like flowers. I was VERY impressed with myself. My girls also took the class with me in which they had a blast!
That afternoon I took a necklace making class. I have never
soldered in my life which is hard to say since my mother was the soldered Queen of Paper Cowgirl! Many people did not believe me when I told them this but now I can say I have. I loved it and plan on making this my creative streak in the making. We made beautiful necklaces out of copper flower cut-outs. We put solder all over our flowers that we had to textured with a cuttle bug. After 2 flowers I had it down and flew right threw the rest. Next we had to add a patina and I chose a black patina. After doing all that we added the jump rings and the necklace part. Then I had picked 3 large colorful stones for the center. It turned out so cute.
That is when I realized, "hey, this ain't so hard" I need to find my creativity in myself and get this pony on the road. After taking this class I realized all the different things I could make using the process we used in the necklace class. So this is my beginning of my new career in art. I hope that you stay tuned for what is to come. 
I still have several things I need to get together to start my artsy fartsy career. So please be patient with me as we journey down this road. I look forward to making new friends in the art world and becoming inspired by all the work my mother ever made and what I see today.
See ya soon~
