Christmas Tray

This was quite a project!!  It was almost like designing seven cards at once and they all had to go together :-)  But it's done now and I am pretty happy with it.. It was actually fun to do and I know that I will make this type of trays again for other occasions.

This Altered Painter's Tray is one of the projects for my upcoming December Workshop!! 

December Workshop will be held again in the large scrapbook room owned by Scrapbook Island in San Jose, CA on Sunday, December 12th. The room is not connected to the store, and is very private!! We will be there all day, from 10 am to 6 pm!! That is a whole 8 hours of lots of FUN!!! Snacks, soft drinks and lunch will be provided.

This Workshop is by invitation ONLY!!  If you have not received an email from me with information about the Workshops and would like to attend, please send me your email address and I will email you an Evite invitation.   

Please email me if you would like to join my Workshop and if you have ANY questions  :-)

This tray measures 12" x 12" with each opening measuring 4" x 6".  Click on the photos to enlarge to see the details :-)

Did you notice that I made a window for Marcy?  I made it out of Grunge Board - painted with acrylic paints, distressed with Inks and embossed with wood grain embossing folder to give it some texture :-)

I used tons of different products and used a lot of different techniques for this project.  To name a few..
