January Classes

January 2013

Classes

We had a great time Demo Day.  The crazy weather didn't keep us from enjoying the usual fun and my pups, Earl and Karma, enjoyed making a lot of new friends.  You won't normally find them around on Demo Day, so if you have dog issues, don't worry.  This was a rare occasion.

Anyway....  no more stalling.... here is the fabulous class schedule for January!

Valentine Wishes

January 2 & 3rd

$25

No messing around.....  get started on your Valentines right now.  You will enjoy using the newest Valentine stamps from Impression Obsession and paper from the new "Key To My Heart" collection from Kaisercraft.  Great combination.....

Valentine Houses

Jan 9 & 10

$30

Oh My Gosh!  Are these not the cutest little glittery houses you've ever seen?  Lot's of fun so be sure to join in....  Come on!  You know you wanna!

Framed with Love Canvas

Jan 16 & 17

$40

When we were making our Kaisercraft order, Lisa saw this lovely framed paper & knew immediately what to do.  And she has stayed true to her "use the back-side of the canvas" personality once again.  Truly a beautiful piece of art!

Demo Day

Saturday, January 18

10 am to 4 pm

FREE

Always fun and always FREE.  Bring a friend and have twice the fun making your FREE Make-it-Take-it  (rumor has it we'll be using some sweet Impression Obsession stamps in this one!)  Lisa will have her February class schedule ready so be sure you stop by for this!

Joanne Sharpe Workshops

January 24 & 25

We are so excited to have Joanne Sharpe teach a group of her fabulous doodling & lettering workshops.  These workshops are filled with more than doodling and lettering....  you will learn all kinds of things about using watercolors and alcohol markers taking your skills to the next level.  For details...  see this blog post. 

Simple Stencil Canvas Pair

Jan 30 & 31

$45

Simple, yet elegant.  You will learn how to use a 12 x 12 stencil (stencil is yours to keep), modeling paste, paint & stamps to create a wonderful pair of canvases.  Lisa has used a very soft palate of blue/green, but you may use any color that will coordinate with your decor.

Holiday Hours Reminder

We will be closed til January 1st.  Join us on the 1st for a 5 hour clearance sale starting at noon and ending at 5 pm.  There will be a 20% discount storewide (even on already reduced items).

New in the House - May 31, 2012

NEW  IN  THE  HOUSE

We've got a lot of new stuff in the House today.  Take a look!

New Stamp sets "Words to the Rescue" by Art gone Wild.  Fab clear stamp sets in the following themes:  Thank You, Encouragement, Friendship, Sympathy, Get Well, & Thinking of You.  Can't miss phrases you'll use over and over again.

New from Tim Holtz & Core-dinations... Your favorite Distress and Kraft Core Paper Pads.  2 new sizes:  2-1/4" x 12" (for those long skinny dies) and 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" (quarter cuts for all your embossing folders). Distress collection has 2 each of 36 colors and Kraft-Core has 3 each of 24 colors.

   New Washi Tapes.... from My Minds Eye and Memory Keepers.  Queen & Co tapes are restocked as well!

Spectra Fix.... Donna Downey's favorite new product.  A fixative made for indoor use.  You are just gonna love this product.  All natural and safe for you and the environment!

Christy Tomlinson by Pink Paislee.  It's sold out and Pink Paislee isn't going to reprint.  We got the last little bit our distributor had.  When it's gone, it's gone.  Be sure you get yours before that happens!

Great selection of "How to" Art books.  There are some new ones you will want that will help you spread your artistic wings!  I know I need the help.....

Ok, so these things aren't new - they're old.  Old enough to be on sale that is!  Added a whole new batch of things to the sale area in the back part of the classroom.  If you are a bargain hunter, this is the place for you.

We got some more new stuff this morning.  I'll tell ya about all that tomorrow, but for now here's an update on...

Got the samples from Dina.  Ask me and I'll show ya!  They are so cool.  Dina will be teaching 4 fabulous classes....  "Dying for Dylusions", Encaustic Tag Book - "Dear Self", Introduction to Art Journaling, and Chunky Background Techniques Book.  Hope you will be taking advantage of this fab opportunity!

That's it for now.... Until next Post.... Happy Creatin'!
