Baskets & Pot of Flowers

 DATE:  Sunday, August 26th

TIME:  12:30 - 2:30

COST:  $25

I'm no gardener, but check out these baskets of flowers and a pot of flowers.  We're going to have some fun making these cards.

The following card has a very interesting background paper that requires a little technique to make it just right.  I think you'll enjoy doing it.

The next card is simply a wire basket with some wildflowers. A little stenciling and textured background and there you have it!

The last card is made using an adorable geranium die set that I tend to forget about.  I've been trying to dig unused/little used stuff out from my stash and this caught my eye.  I think it makes an adorable card for many different occasions...

Be sure an check the newsletter for what to bring to class.  

See you soon!

Top Flap Cards

DATE:  SUNDAY, July 12th

TIME:  12:30 - 2:30

COST:  $25

A2 cards are the norm (at least for us in the US) and are followed by an A7 as a very close second. Sometimes we get a bit bored with the same opening of an A2, so this next class will have them opening from the top as in a flap.

I've used a die cut for two cards, but also show how you really don't need a die to create these cards.  There could also be a bonus card in this class depending on time constraints for attendees.  We will also revisit using photo paper and inks for one card.

In no particular order, here's what we'll be doing:

Card opened...

Card using photo paper and inks (yes, I know the orientation of my flower is not correct for a top opening!)

I hope you'll join me for this mostly glue and tape class.  All pieces have been cut - you just need to assemble them.  The last card will require a bit more work - but you are used to that!

I look forward to seeing you all on the 12th!  In the meantime, have a happy and safe 4th!
