Learning lattice work

DATE:   PLEASE NOTE TWO DATES THAT THIS CLASS IS BEING OFFERED 
                THURSDAY DAY:  1PM TO 3PM
                FRIDAY NITE:  7PM TO 9PM
COST:    $15.00


Happy hot summer to you all! Whew! it certainly has been a doozy these past few weeks. Just wrapping my brain around something creative has been a struggle. BUT~~~I did it! I think I've found a really fun project for you that you will duplicate again and again. I'll be teaching you how to create your own lattice work and translate that to your card making endeavors. With a template and a few snips of your scissors, you'll be creating some very inspiring and easy cards. Let's show you what you'll be doing.


This first card is a side opening lattice (sorry, the ribbon tail is hiding the lattice work).



This next card is a center lattice with a beautiful double color, double loop bow created on your Craft-Dee BowZ tool (you may want to bring it with you!).



So I got to thinking, if I can create a side opening lattice and a center lattice, why not try a top opening lattice?  You will learn how to color your ribbon to match your theme with this card.


You may have notice above that I am offering this class as a day class as well as a night class.  I am trying to create convenience within our busy summer schedules.  

So here's the deal -- you MUST, MUST specify which class you are attending - day or evening when you notify me.  I will provide you with two paypal buttons below labeled accordingly.  Or, you can email me at deedee.maligno@gmail.com if that is more convenient.

Come on, lattice have some fun (no groaning, please!).


THIS BUTTON IS FOR THE DAYTIME CLASS ONLY!

What to do with vellum?

DATE:  Friday, July 15th from 7 to 9pm
COST:  $15

A few of my lovely ladies have asked me about incorporating vellum on their greeting cards.  It's the "what?" that people have trouble with -- what do I do with vellum?  We probably all have some vellum in our stash and it languishes there because we just don't know what to do with it.  I think most people purchased it originally to do dry embossing and then wondered "what else?"

This class will show you some clever but simple tricks and help you on the road to using that stash.  We will create three cards incorporating vellum that may surprise you in a good way!

Here's what we'll be doing:

I've included the gentlemen once again with this first card.  Of course, it is so generic that you could still send it to a lovely female acquaintance.  Just change out the card stock color for a brighter look.


 This next card is my version of a card that Jennifer McGuire taught.  It's a very clever and useful technique.


This next card happens to be a favorite of mine.  I learned this technique many, many years ago and have kept it on a back burner for just this propitious occasion.  This card can be done two ways and I'll show you the alternative in class.
