Love Lisa's creation they're gorgeous. Ummmmm I think f-stops and shutter speeds sounds the course for me.

Wow, these are two great giveaways. I really like Lisa jewlery, and this owl is so cute.
As for a online course I would love to learn more about the possibilities with my Silhouett. I just love that machine, but need to learn more.
From the picture I think that the class Wire, paint and paper seems like a lot of fun.
Enjoy your trip and have a lovely weekend.

Whoa, I love online classes and am always looking for new ones! That Silhouette 101 class would be great since I plan to get one of those snazzy machines. Thx Heidi! Safe travels to San Jose.

LOVE, LOVE Lisa’s designs! I would love to open up one of her necklaces for Mother’s Day. I may have to drop some hints around my house...
I have taken classes at Creative Classroom and they are fantastic. My pick for my next would have to be one of their classes on photography.
Thanks Heidi and have fun teaching this weekend. I wish I lived in CA!

Unfortunately the Silhouette is not available in Oz yet but I am told it will be soon, I have it on my wish list and I am keen to get some homework done before hand so I guess the Silhouette 101 class would be the one for me.

I love attending technique classes that teach you what you can do with new and different type of products. :)
Posted by: Chelle | April 09, 2010 at 03:54 AM
I absolutely LOVE Lisa Leonard's designs. They are so beautiful and unique. If I were to take a course it would definitely be on photography and how to get the most out of my camera. Thank you for the giveaway and have a great trip to San Jose!

I would love a glimmer mist class, & I would like the bind it all. I have but would love to learn to use it without doing 10 test pages to get it right.

Lisa's jewellery is so divine. I'm in love with that owl. (-: Yes, I think I might have to drop a few hints to my DH. Ummm...can I take all the classes? Seriously, how is a person supposed to choose just one when there are so many new things to learn? I was drooling just reading through the list. Right, choose one...arghhh....Wire, Paint and Paper with Catherine Scanlon. I would choose that one to whet my appetite. (-: Cheers, Jules.

Also - the online class looks awesome! I love that sorta thing because it's less disruptive to my life! =-D I think I'd pick a class on the Silhouette stuff. I have very little knowledge of electronic cutting machines!

I would like a class on how to photograph your work. Thanks for a chance to win some fun stuff!

Thanks for the chance to win! I would LOVE to learn more about my Silhouette!
Posted by: Charmaine Ikach | April 09, 2010 at 05:34 AM
I would really love to learn more about my bind it all. It was one of those have to buy tools and I never use it! So a class would be great to learn all kinds of new and fun things to make!
Online classes are fun too, because they are in the comfort of your home and you can stay in our jammies and do them at your leisure!

Good morning. I would love the chance to take the silhouette class. I don't have one yet but would get one to take the class. I have a mac and have been waiting until it is compatible. But I really want one!
