Christmas in July Workshop

On Thursday, I had fun with friends!  Did a little workshop at our new Hobby Lobby,
and this is what we made.  Everyone seemed to have a good time, and
seemed pleased with their cards.  I've heard rumors that some spouses
enjoyed a bit of chocolate, but you know how rumors are...






                           

Saw this layout on Pinterest and had to case it :)

Since this was a 'Christmas in July' workshop, I also baked Christmas cookies, 
white chocolate covered pretzels, and had Ghirardelli goodies and mints at every seat.

I did have the courtesy and forethought to take all calories out first!!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs and blessings,
Patti J.

Oh, Patti, what fun you must have had at your Hobby Lobby workshop. You did some lovely work, and I know the rest must have enjoyed doing it. You must be a great teacher, because this is a lot to do for a workshop. Wow, what fun to have gotten together, and HL is my favorite craft store. Don't you just love the music they play!?! Hugs, sweet friend!
