 June 2025

Class Schedule

 

Preview Day is the most fun time of the month.  Lisa always brings a great class schedule and we treated everyone to the most creative make 'n take ever!
 
Stamps and inks by Catherine Pooler.  The design was a collection of elements from several samples on Catherine Pooler's website and interpreted by moi (Maura)!

We have Dina Wakley's workshops at the end of June (28th & 29th).  The all day Ledger Journal Exploration class is sold out, but there are a few seats left in the other two classes.  For more information go to myheartsfancy.com.

Here's Lisa's June class schedule.  The small tag journal makes a repeat performance and the Man Card class is absolutely stunning with the newest papers we found from 49 and Market!  So here's what's on the lineup.....

Man Cards - $35
Thursday, June 5
10:30 am OR 6 pm
 

 
 The paper collection called "Wanderlust Explorer" by 49 and Market is perfect for man cards.  These papers are so versatile that they are great for mixed media applications.  You'll love using these cards for Father's Day (the 15th) or birthday cards for men and boys!  Stamps by IndigoBlu and Tim Holtz complete the supply list.

Pretty Pockets - $35
Thursday, June 12
10:30 am OR 6 pm
 

 Lisa has been in a "pocket kinda mood" lately and this card class is filled with them.  Some of the pockets are almost hidden.  She's using the new Spellbinders 3D Cut and Emboss set called "Blooming Butterflies" and several new Penny Black stamp sets.  You'll have fun with these cards!

Gotta Love Rub-ons - $35
Thursday, June 19
10:30 am OR 6 pm
 
 
Lisa taught a rub-on class several years ago using muslin.  The rub-ons available now are so much better than they used to be and you'll use them on muslin and vellum to create this group of beautiful cards.  You'll love how quick and easy rub-ons make creating a card.

Preview Day - FREE

Small Watercolor Tag Book - $35
TUESDAY, June 24
10:30 am OR 6 pm
 
Lisa taught this little tag journal a year or more ago and it was such a popular little journal we have decided to offer it again.  You'll enjoy filling it with all kinds of tiny art (one of my favorite things to do to spark my creativity).  The one I made last year is one of my favorite journals.  You'll have so many options for your cover and it's always fun to see how every one else's journals turn out.

10:30 am OR 6 pm
 
 
It's been a while since we have gel printed.  This class is a one of Lisa's favorites and I always love to take this class.  Gel prints can be used for just about any art project you can think of including card backgrounds, book covers (and pages), and more!

Class Schedule
 
The April schedule is here! Lisa has some really great options for you next month.  Saturday brought lots of fun and laughter along with the reveal of the April class scheduleOur FREE Make n' take featured this card which included a sweet border stamp from Catherine Pooler and die cut eggs using a die that is also from Catherine Pooler.
 

Such a fun card and perfect for just about any spring occasion!

Here's the schedule for April.....


Easter/Spring is Here - $35
Thursday, April 3
10:30 am OR 6 pm

Oh my!  Have you seen cuter bunnies?  These are ArtFoamies and we will have a third one available should you prefer to use a different one.  The boots, tulip & postage stamps are from Penny Black.  You'll sharpen your watercoloring skills on these fabulous all occasion cards that can be used for Easter if you wish.  Too cute!


Flutter Bye - $35
Thursday, April 10
10:30 am OR 6 pm

Who doesn't love butterflies?  I know, not everyone..... but I only know a few who don't.  If you love butterflies, this class is for you.  The stamps from Altenew, Indigo Blue and Hero Arts coupled with new stencils and embossing folders make these cards a stunning set.  These are also great for any occasion but the moth card in black, white and gold could certainly be used for a sympathy card if needed.


Art Foam Goddesses - $35
Thursday, April 17
10:30 am OR 6 pm

The new ArtFoamies Goddess foamies from the Fodder School collection by Leaca Young are so serene.  When Lisa saw them she knew immediately what she wanted to do!  Two of these cards are created using a paper by Simple Stories that is a sheet of vintage tags.  Lisa has cut two that are side by side to make a creative folded card with a pocket inside where you can tuck a gift card and some ephemera.  The other two also feature a few of the tags from the paper in a more traditional way.  Such a fun way to create!

Handmade Art Journal - $45
Thursday, April 24
10:30 am OR 6 pm

I can't wait to take this class!  Seriously, I have become very fond of creating in small journals and this 5"x7" is just the ticket.  Not too many pages, not too small..... just right!  The cover will be prepped for you which will save time so you can get right down to the serious artwork for the cover.  You'll create on the inside and outside and when you are done, you'll use a pamphlet stitch with waxed linen cord to attach 2 signatures of mixed papers.  This will be so much fun to work in!

Art Journal Saturday - $20
Saturday, April 26
9 am OR 1:30 pm


And as usual, the sample was not ready for prime time when this blog post was written.  But if you love to Art Journal, then you know this will be fun.  Lisa or I create an art journal spread and then guide you through the steps we used to create it.  Yours will be uniquely yours because you get to choose colors, images and tools to use in the creation.  It's our bargain class and no one is disappointed!  We even have our very own private Facebook group for sharing what we did.

That's the schedule.. Now here are some things you need to know.

Can you believe that weather on Saturday?  Beautiful in the morning and snow at 5 pm!  Wow.....  All I can say is those who came out had a great time.  Everyone got to make the fun Free Make 'n Take card on the right.  The card on the left was a sample.  We made up card packs for purchase to make either of them.  I can tell you that it was a hit.  Such a fun card for a birthday, celebration, or join me for some fun.

Don't like the word soar?  No worries.... Lisa will have the dies available so you can use any word you like. The paper doll girl is another one of the newest ArtFoamies from Fodder School artist Angela Kennedy.  Her face is blank and Lisa will show you a simple and creative way of adding a face.  You won't believe how easy it is!

Class Schedule

Oh Boy!  Have we got a great February class schedule for you!  Saturday was Preview Day and Lisa brought us a beautiful set of classes and I know one or all of them will be irresistible!  We had to reschedule the Winter Mug Shots class due to weather so you'll find it included on this schedule.  There are a few spots left so if you are interested, please call the store to enroll.  It has already been removed from the website so there is no online registration available for that class.

Without further comment, I'll get right to it.


Winter Mug Shots - $35
Reschedule
Thursday, January 30
10:30 am OR 6 pm


Create these 4 adorable winter "mug" cards that can be used for just about any ocassion you can imagine. The card pictured on the left side of the photo has a kitty mug that can replace the puppy mug if you prefer cats to dogs.  There are a few seats left in both the morning and evening class.  TO ENROLL IN THIS CLASS, PLEASE CALL THE STORE BEFORE SATURDAY, JANUARY 25. 

Friendship & Love Cards - $35
Thursday, February 6
10:30 am OR 6 pm


This entire class uses Penny Black's newest stamps to make 2 elegant cards and 2 sweet cards.  All can be used for most ages and are perfect for the month of February or Valentines!  This class is filled with watercolor techniques. If you've been watercoloring for a while, you'll continue to sharpen your skills.  If you're just learning, you'll learn several techniques that are easy to master.

Birdsong Spiral Book - $40
Thursday, February 13
10:30 am OR 6 pm


Lisa hasn't taught a spiral bound style book in quite a while.  49 & Market's new Birdsong paper collection is just the perfect one for this project.  The spiral binding will be different from the one shown here.  There just wasn't enough time to perfect the placement, but it has been mastered and you'll have more stability for the book.  There are pockets in all the pages and there are a few insert booklets with pockets inside them.  This is just one of the most beautiful books and it got rave reviews during Preview Day.  Be sure you get your spot in this class soon!
