More Christmas Cards

DATE:  SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2nd (please note the Date and Time!)

TIME:  11:00 am - 1pm

COST:  $20

Saying goodbye to 2023!  Yup, this is our last class of the year.  And what better way than to create the last of our Christmas cards.  I'd like to mention that our November 19th class with the easel Christmas trees was a stand out day.  You ladies did a super job!

So let's do some more fun holiday cards.  I've got that new snowman from Hero Arts peeking around the corner and another card with none other than SNOWY!  Snowy has been around for about 15 years - in stamp form.  Now he's in die form and as cute as ever.  We'll be creating a step card with Snowy that's simple yet a little unusual (you be the judge).  Then to round out the creativity, we'll be making two different gift card enclosure cards.  Gift cards seem to be the way of the world now, so we might as well roll with it, get creative and "build" some cards around them.

The following are the snowmen cards:




Next up are the gift enclosure cards:


and inside (gift card on left)...


And our next card is a pop up gift card...




On another note, I have made a difficult executive decision about class cost.  As with everything else around us (food, clothing, taxes - you get the idea), the cost of goods for card making has increased as well.  I have never raised my prices in 20 years (yes, you read that correctly!), so as of the first of 2024, price per class will be $25.  There may be the occasional class where I don't feel it warrants that price and, believe it or not, the price of that class will decrease.  I love teaching and I love teaching this wonderful group of ladies.  We've formed our very own Paper Making Circle and have become so comfortable with one another that we are almost finishing each other's sentences!!😛

One more thing:  We had to change the date of this class to 12/2 as many of the girls had other commitments.  Everyone agrees that changing the date to 12/2 (originally set for 12/3) was in everyone's interest.  The start time will be 11am - so get out of bed, lazy head, and get to class!

Lastly, please confirm or deny that you will be attending on 12/2 as many had already signed up for the 3rd.  I just need to know in order to prep for the right number of attendees.  Email, text or send a love letter letting me know.  I appreciate it!

See you on the 2nd!

POP UP CHRISTMAS TREE CARDS

 DATE:  Sunday, NOVEMER 19TH

TIME:  12:30 - 2:30

COST:  $20

Thanksgiving isn't even here, but I feel that we are heading at warp speed toward Christmas.  Why is it that some years are fairly leisurely and others...  For me, this is moving too fast!  So let's help you catch up with Father Time and create some more Christmas cards.

We'll be using a rather interesting but super easy technique to create these cards.  I'm offering two different sizes - traditional A2 size and the ever growing popular A7 (5x7) cards.  

First up, is the A2 using traditional holiday colors using lots of shine and glitter:


And our second card is an A7 size.  I'm growing a fondness for this size -- it gives you more "real estate" to play with.  This card shows lots of glitter and glitz but uses non-traditional colors.


It looks like this class just filled up!  If this is something you'd really love to create, just message me in any of the traditional ways and I'll set up a private class for you.

As always, I look forward to seeing you all.
