HMMMM.....WHAT DID CAT DO YESTERDAY?

Neither Cat or Ann are morning people.
Even though they love Tim's classes,
do they really have to make them begin at 8:00 a.m.????
They were given these goodies to make this:

This was the project from Session one.
Lots of Tim Holtz products to love in this one!
 
Next was Dina Wakely's class.  
 
Look at this...AMAZING!!!
Can't wait to see how they did this!
 
So looking forward to learning how to do this.

HURRY UP CAT AND ANN!!!
COME HOME AND SHOW US HOW!
WE WANT TO MAKE THIS!!!
