Christmas Cards & Calendar Classes

Here they are!  You can pick A la Carte style which cards you would like to make.
Cards come in a set of 15 for $18
You can make multiple sets of one style, or 3 each of the 5 designs.
In order to prepare for the workshop I need to know in advance how many sets and which style of card you want to make.  I will have all materials pre-cut, so you can stamp, ink and assemble.
Your order is due November 24 (Saturday after Thanksgiving).  No need to prepay, but I do need to know if you are planning to attend so I can prepare your materials.
I will also have gift tags available to make 3/$1.  (As I get samples finished I will post here - I promise they'll be cute!)  Please let me know if you would like to make gift tags and how many.

Advent Calendar Class - Joy Blocks Class
Saturday Nov. 17 

4:00-7:00 pm

Isn't this darling?  I've had so many requests for this as a workshop.  Especially from those who may not own a cricut.  When you sign up for this class you get the use of my cricut to cut all the cute little drawers.

I can't wait to fill mine with treats and little activity ideas for the kiddos.

The price of this workshop is $50 - it includes the solid wood cubby frame, all the embellishments, paper, stamps and instructions needed to create this project.  I will supply the cricut, ink pads, and other tools.

You just bring strong adhesive and scissors. (I recommend liquid glass).

Wanna know the awesome part?  I'm going to reuse my cubby, instructions and stamp set to create other advent calendars.  I'll just decorate and switch out my little drawers ~ like birthdays, halloween, easter, valentines ... I'm getting kind of excited!

Okay, I just decided to add this to the advent calendar class.  I made this at my unit's scrapbook retreat. These blocks were designed by my fabulous friend Renae Fennema. Aren't they beautiful?  They are extremely sparkly in "real life" too.
Cost for project is $16
Includes 3 my creations blocks, satin polka dot ribbon, sparkles, pre-cut papers,
silver embossing, glitter tape and inks.
Please bring liquid glass and adhesive.

• Next is a new Halloween Craft Class.  Close To My Heart released a brand new line of home decor and cute project supplies.  I decided to teach this darling Halloween Display Tray class.  This project was inspired by a fabulous consultant friend of mine, Michelle Beck.  This class will be October 9th at 7 pm in Bountiful.  (My house until further notice).  Cost is $30, this includes a display tray, chipboard dimensional elements, precut paper, & black tulle ribbon (can't really see this in the pic).  You will need to bring scissors and strong adhesive - I recommend liquid glass.
