Then I got busy with leadership preparations, and didn't remove them.  This week was also busy and I hosted my first sale-a-bration workshop.  So today, my dear husband helped me and we got them down.  Although the house feels a little empty, I'll try to find and make a few decorations for valentine's day.

Today, I'll be sharing Make & Take #5 and tomorrow the last make & take + the bonus my digital studio card we received from our MDS class at leadership.  It was hosted by Sara Douglass.  I have been using the program lots, but this class was refreshing and I learned two new things that I can implement in the future.  I wish that class was a little longer.  If you have mds do not forget to update your downloads.  Also, during sale-a-bration starting the January 25th, if you order for 60$, you get to receive free downloads!!!

I  have been displaying them in my studio and have them in bags, separated them in all the different sizes.  Here is a close up of one of the charms.  I don't have the name of the demonstrator that designed it but I just love it. 

Here  is one that I created in black & white.  Sorry for the picture, it is not as clear as I would of liked it to be.
