May Classes

May 2018 Class Schedule

Are you ready to rock and roll in May?  Lisa's class schedule was presented Saturday on Demo Day.  It is a lovely collection of cards and projects.  We created this sweet birthday card with stamps from Impression Obsession....

We used Clean Color brush markers to color the stamped images and then topped the balloons and packages with clear Wink of Stella.  We sold out of stamps and card packages, but it you want any of them, we'll be happy to order them for you.

Not only do we have a great line up from Lisa this month, Kae Pea from RubberMoon Stamps will be here on the 4th and 5th to teach 3 really great classes.  We have openings so don't be shy about calling to enroll.  I am also happy to announce that I now have all the information for you about Dina Wakley's workshops which is in the previous blog post.  I'll post the link at the end of this schedule. I think you'll agree this month is going to be fabulous!

And now for the line up of May classes....
