It's been 6 months since I held my last class. Although I missed everyone and the crafting, it was a much needed break for me. But I'm ready to get back into the swing of things this month! My June class will be held on Saturday, June 18 at 10:00 a.m. We will be creating 12 birthday cards and 5 tags. I'm a little late in celebrating the "I'm Bringing Birthdays Back", but better late than never, right? We are making 2 each of 6 cards and the 5 tags. I know this is more than what we normally make, but this is a special class for me as my first class after my 6 month break!<br />
My Saturday class is already full, but have a few more spaces for my Sunday, June 19 class. I know it's Father's Day, but if you want to attend, you can take a photo of the samples and prep your cards to finish at home.<br />
If you are interested in attending my June 19 class, please message me ASAP so I can include a kit for you.<br />
Looking forward to this class!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09110635860790581775noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-642547691283220587.post-65577653130380649212016-06-05T14:00:00.002-07:002016-06-05T14:01:15.753-07:00New! 2016 - 2017 Annual Catalog and awesome offers to join!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Wanted to share with you anyway the gift card holders we made at our November class.</span><br />
<br />
Our November gift card holder class was so much fun! Here are the projects...the first GCH was made using the Envelope Punch Board. We used a 7 1/2 X 7 1/2 cardstock and we made the first score mark at 3 3/8. I cut off one of the flaps and glued the other tabs together to form a sleeve. Decorated it with the Wonderous Wreath stamp set and cut out with the coordinating dies. You can purchase it in a bundle too! I believe that this set is still available for a limited time. Check the Stampin up! website/<br />

This gift card holder was made with our Chevron gift bag. We folded it in half so that it made 2 pockets, one for the tag with gift card and the other for the a little note. <br />

Can't believe it's already 2015! I hope everyone had a nice holiday season. It's now time to get back into the swing of things and time for another class! This is everyone's favorite Stamping time of the year where we celebrate SALE-A-BRATION! Briefly, the reason why sale-a-bration is everyone's favorite time of year is because for every $50.00 you spend (before shipping and tax), you can earn one free product from the sale-a-bration catalog! If you would like to receive the sale-a-bration catalog or the new Occasions catalog, send me an email and I will send one to you!<br />
This month's class projects will include projects using some of the sale-a-bration products as well as products from the Occasions catalog. Typical me, didn't get a chance to prep samples for the class until yesterday. I hope this is not a start to another year of last minute planning, believe me, I am trying hard to get things done on time. Class is this weekend - Saturday, January 17 and Sunday, January 18 at my home from 10:00 a.m. Please RSVP as soon as possible to save your space for these classes.

Life is so busy for everyone and it's been a crazy year for me trying to juggle work and home life with 4 kids, 2 dogs and 3 cats, yikes! Did you all know that I have 4 kids living at my house? In addition to Nolan, we have his girlfriend Tanner living with us as well as one of Nolan's best friend, Philip. His brother Eric moved in a short time after Philip and they've been living with us for about a year and a half now. Not your normal family life for these kids, with no where else to go, my husband and I felt that we needed to help these young adults get on their feet and to make sure they know that they are loved and to guide them to make right choices in life. Needless to say, this has been one my biggest challenge juggling the lives of 4 young adults. There are some days that I am totally exhausted and sometimes want to give up. I just thought I'd explain my life situation so you can understand why even more so these days, that it takes me forever to come up with projects and get them posted. I'm a procrastinator to begin with, but life in my house just adds to this madness!<br />
With that being said, I hope you will join me for this last class of the year. In early December, I will be having my holiday party for those who have attended my class during the year. This will be a potluck event and will include FREE projects as my gift to you! I will be posting news about that event soon. Thank you for taking a peek at my monthly blog post and I hope to see some of you this weekend!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09110635860790581775noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-642547691283220587.post-42705176523917758422014-10-07T10:52:00.003-07:002014-10-07T10:52:32.542-07:00The 50 Tag Class is back! Getting ready for the holidays!By popular request, the 50 Tag Class is back! In this class, we will be making five (5) each of ten (10) designs. Holy moly, right?! Over the years of creating crazy tags with tiny intricate pieces, I've learned to simplify it especially when making 50 tags, right?! This year, you won't be disappointed with the designs that I came up with. I spent days combing through Pinterest to get inspired by all of the many wonderful designs and boy was I inspired! Here is the sneak peek of what we will be making!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The class date, however, has been moved from the normal third week of the month (October 18) to Saturday, October 25 and Sunday, October 26 from 10:00 a.m. until we finish!! You will need to bring your own tool kits making sure you have enough adhesive to make the 50 tags! Your kit will include all materials to make the tags (cardstock, ribbons, accessories) including a pack of stampin' dimensionals and the use of the machines, dies, etc. The cost for this class is $50.00, which comes out to only $1.00 per tag! Demonstrators pay discounted price of $30. I'm so sorry to announce that there will be no kits in the mail for this class as there are just too many pieces to cut and stamp and you probably won't get the kit until after Christmas (just kidding!) but seriously, it will take me a while to complete for you.<br />
If you are interested in attending this class, please <span style="color: red;"><b>RSVP by email as soon as possible!</b></span> I will be taking reservations up to <span style="color: red;"><b>October 14 </b></span>in order to prepare these kits. The class will be limited to 10 people for each session in order to make room for all of the stations for each project.<br />
Looking forward to seeing you for this fun class as we get ready for the holidays! It will be here before we know it!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09110635860790581775noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-642547691283220587.post-66847813878626199582014-09-15T01:20:00.004-07:002014-09-15T01:20:52.582-07:00September Class Projects Sneak Peek!Happy September!!

<b><span style="color: red;">NOTE: If you own a gift box punch board please bring it to class with you so you won't have to wait your turn to use mine. Also, if you own blendabilities pens, you might want to consider bringing your own as you won't have to wait to color your images. These are the colors that we will be using:</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: red;">Cherry Cobbler - light and medium, Ivory and Blush, Mocha and Bronze, Daffodil Delight - Dark. We will also be using the regular Stampin' Write markers in the following colors: Pear Pizzazz, Baked Brown Sugar and Rose Red. This is not a requirement, but it might make your life easier if you don't have to wait to color your images. </span></b>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09110635860790581775noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-642547691283220587.post-51232966120062217892014-08-18T00:47:00.000-07:002014-08-18T00:47:00.784-07:00August Class Projects!For once, I'm on time to share the projects that we made from class. I know I still didn't share projects from June and July, but I will! I finally organized my photos so I can upload them on my blog. I will get to those after I return from my trip.<br />
This month's class featured a bunch of different techniques. Here are the projects! The first project was created because I was trying to use up these Altoid tins that my husband saves for me. I knew that I would use them for something, one day. Here is the decorated lid. Used the new photopolymer stamp set called Christmas Bliss, love this set!! <br />

I asked for suggestions from the ladies who attend my classes and this was suggested. It's a Cluster stamped card. How cute did this turn out?! Thanks Melita for the suggestion. This idea was adapted from Papertrey Inc. I used all SU stamps and inks for this card.<br />

This month, I will be having <b><span style="color: red;">only one class on Saturday, August 16 at 10:00 </span></b>am at my home. If you cannot make the Saturday, please email me and I can do a Sunday class. The reason for the Saturday only class is that I'm getting ready to leave for a trip to Las Vegas as the youngest of my hanai kids will be going to UNLV and I'll be going up there to help settle him in his dorm. Thankful that my older sister, Cheryl and her hubby Rick will be going with me as I would probably get lost! I'm actually looking forward to a mini vacation, but the priority is taking Eric to college and getting him settled in. (his name is Eric just like my hubby, so I've been referring to him as "brother", lol). Anyway, back to the class! Please <b><span style="color: red;">RSVP via email</span></b> as soon as you can so I can save a kit for you. Please do not RSVP via this blog because as you can see, I'm not on it regularly like I used to. The class kit is $25.00 and will include all materials and use of my supplies (stamps, inks, dies, machines). You will need to bring your tool kit (adhesive, scissors, paper trimmer, scoring board, etc). Demonstrators pay only $12.00 and kits in the mail $35.00 (this includes postage and your kit stamped, cut and ready to put together. Note that the kits in the mail will take a little extra time so I can complete the stamping and cutting).<br />
I can't wait to share these projects with you. I am looking forward to seeing you at class!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09110635860790581775noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-642547691283220587.post-89709344614618602942014-07-12T15:50:00.002-07:002014-07-12T15:50:45.678-07:00July Class Sneak Peek Right here!!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I had alot of fun creating the samples for this month's class. Thanks to my friend and partner, Wini, for lighting the fire under my butt to get going. I think I was in one of those moments where I couldn't decide on the right project for the class. I'm thanking Pinterest, YouTube and Blogs and all of the wonderful and creative people who inspired me for the projects. I will try to find the links for the people that inspired me for the class projects. Here is the sneak peek of what we will be making next weekend. </div>

Classes will be on Saturday, July 19 and Sunday, July 20 at 10:00 a.m. at my home. Please RSVP as soon as possible to reserve your space for this class. Cost for the class is $25. Demonstrators pay $12.00 and kits in the mail $35. If you are attending the class, no need to mail in your payment as I will collect at the class. Please be sure that you bring your tool kit which should include your choice of adhesive, scissors, paper trimmer with scoring blade or you could bring your Simply Scored Board. <br />
We will be making 5 fun cards. These cards are more than just a simple ink on paper kind of cards. We will be making a cool new and improved (simplified) waterfall card (I was inspired by Julie Davidson, thank you so much!). We will also be making a card with a pretty floral band to close the card using the Flower Patch stamp set and Flower Fair framelit dies. Another card we will be making will be a faux iris twist card, so pretty! I am finalizing another project using the embossing folder and our chalk pen. I hope it turns out! It should be fun class learning how to make some cool cards.<br />
I look forward to seeing you this weekend!!

THANK YOU!</span></b><br />
Can you believe that the samples for my April class is done? No wonder it's been raining (giggling)...At my next class, we will be making 20 All Occasion cards - the occasions are: graduation, birthday, new baby (boy & girl), sympathy and thank you. We will be making 4 cards of each design (except for the baby cards - 2 boy cards, 2 girl cards). Each kit will contain 1 pack of 20 cards and envelopes and one Fresh Prints paper stack. I'm still trying to figure out a project to put the cards in. That will be the surprise! I had fun creating these cards - I know you will enjoy making them and also love having cards ready made for use!<br />

Classes will be held on Saturday, April 19 and Sunday, April 20. I know that Sunday is Easter Sunday, but I hope that you can still make it. Please <b><span style="color: red;">RSVP BY EMAIL</span><span style="color: red;"> no later than April 2nd</span></b>. Because the kits will include the cards & envelope set and the paper stack, I will need to make sure that I order enough of each. Cost for the class is $25 and in addition to those products mentioned above, it will include everything you need to complete the 20 cards and something to hold the cards too. After you RSVP, please send in your payment (much appreciated!) If you are interested in this class but cannot make it, I am offering "to go" kits for $35 which will include a completed sample of each card and the shipping cost of your kit. Demonstrators pay only $12 for a kit (this will include the card & envelope set, the paper stack and all other supplies to complete the kit). Please remember to bring your tool kits to the class!<br />

I'm finally taking some time for ME today since it is a State of Hawaii holiday - Kuhio Day. I'm spending it at home trying to catch up on some things that I really needed to do but have no time otherwise! I'm also taking a day off tomorrow to continue to finish up on my to do list and getting more "ME time" in...getting my nails done, much needed!! Okay, here are the class projects we did this month. I ran out of my own ideas and had such a difficult time finalizing the projects. My fix was to get inspired on Pinterest. Here, I found some awesome ideas, including this cute, cute, cute triangle chick. This idea came from the very talented Julie Davidson - please check out her blog and give her some love...you can check Julie out <a href="http://juliedavison.blogspot.com/search?q=triangle+chick">HERE </a>Thank you Julie for the inspiration.<br />

For this next project, I used the envelope punch board and I wanted to make something that could hold a regular size candy bar (a flat candy bar). I viewed a lot of projects online for smaller candies, but I really wanted something larger so this is what I came up with. The finished size not including the ears is 6 1/4". Since this bunny was large, I used the gift bow bigz sizzix die that was featured in our holiday catalog (sorry, catalog expired already). I thought this bunny turned out pretty cute.<br />

I was inspired again on Pinterest to make a chick basket...here is my take on the basket. I used our fancy favor die (and I didn't even realize that this die is now retired...(what?!?!) One of my favorite dies!!! <br />

Found this idea to make carrots on Pinterest as well...this idea came all the way from Australia by Tanya Bell. You can search for this project called Carrot Eggs. Super easy to make - using the 2 3/8" scallop circle punch and the fringe scissors to make the greens. I held them together using glue dots. I even put a glue dot behind the chocolate egg so they don't fall out.<br />

Hope you liked seeing my March Easter class projects. Thanks so much for looking at my blog today!

So many things have been consuming my free time lately, meaning that I have had no free time! But, with that being said, here are the projects I came up with for my March class which is scheduled for Saturday, March 15 and Sunday, March 16. I apologize that my sneak peeks are sooooo late, but I guess better late than never right?<br />
In addition to my late start in actually figuring out the projects, for some reason, the projects for this month did not come easy, I have no idea why. I wasted a couple of days making samples and not liking any of them. I finally gave up and searched through Pinterest to get motivated. There are two projects that were exact CASE projects but the rest of the projects were altered to my own liking. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

If you are interested in attending this month's classes, please RSVP via email to me ASAP. I usually don't see any comments from this blog, so email is the best, or if you have my number, a text is good too. I will also be posting this announcement on Facebook and Instagram, so if you are on any of those social networks, RSVP there is good too.<br />
The cost for this class is $25 and will include everything you will need to make these projects including some Easter candy to finish off the project. You may bring your payment on class day. Please bring your tool kit to the class - adhesive, scissors, paper trimmer and anything else you use to craft with. Kits "to go" cost is $35 and will include shipping cost and the projects ready to put together. If you are a demonstrator, your special cost for this class is $10 - if you are not a demonstrator, now is a good time to join! During the Sale-a-bration promotion, a new demonstrator will get $150 in products for only $99. This limited offer is good through March 31. Contact me for more info! <br />
I hope you will join me for this fun class!<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: red;">NEW CLASS POLICY: If you RSVP for a class and cannot make it for whatever the reason, as a courtesy to me, please make arrangements to make payment and pick up your class kit. My commitment to you is to prepare and reserve the kit for you and it's kind of uncool to get stuck with a bunch of extra kits that people made commitments for as it is a loss for my business. I hope you understand where I'm coming from. I do appreciate everyone that comes to my classes as it helps support my business.</span></b>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09110635860790581775noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-642547691283220587.post-80400058654310799832014-02-03T23:03:00.001-08:002014-02-03T23:04:49.037-08:00February Class - this weekend!! Last minute, but it will be fun!Hello friends!! Well, here we are at February 2014! January was a blur and I just couldn't get my act together to plan a class for January. I decided to offer my February class a little earlier this month since I was able to get some help for this weekend. My partner in crime is going on a vacation and won't be here for our usual class which is usually held on the third Saturday and Sunday of the month, so we decided to give it a try and see if we can round up some people to come and join us for a fun weekend this week!<br />
Last weekend, I was honored to be asked to be a presenter at the very first Spreading Aloha event. It was nice to meet so many new people. I haven't been at one of these events in like forever, so it was nice to finally go to one. I learned a new project that day which I loved! Love it so much that I thought we would make it this weekend. It's called a card in a box and it folds flat to fit in a regular card envelope. In addition to this card in a box, I thought we would make a couple of tags featuring the new tag topper punches and a couple of easy but cute gift card holders using the envelope punch board. Here is the info for the class:<br />
When: Saturday, February 8 at 10:00 a.m. and Sunday, February 9 at 10:00 a.m. at my home.<br />
Cost $20.00. If you are a demonstrator the cost is $10.00. Please RSVP to me via email no later than Thursday, February 6. I look forward to seeing you this weekend! Here is a peek at the card in the box project we will be making. Thanks to Norine for sharing this fun project with us at the event!!<br />

Thank you to those who attended and joined me as we made some fun projects! We had so much food too! Thank you to everyone who brought a dish to share. It was enjoyed by all!<br />
Here are the projects that we made: Using the new envelope punch board, we made a cute Santa box. The box has a belly band belt and inside is where we stored our other projects. <br />

We made 3 tags using the deco thinlet dies on cherry cobbler cardstock and stamped an image from the Christmas Tagables photopolymer stamp set using real red. This tag was also embossed using the Pretty Print Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.<br />

We also made these 3 tags using white cardstock and stamped snowflake images in Marina Mist from the Endless Wishes photopolymer stamp set. This set is now SOLD OUT! I'm so glad that I ordered mine early. Unfortunately, SU will not be reordering this set as it is too close to Christmas. <br />

We made 3 cards with envelopes. I love these notecards with envelopes - the best deal ever. Gotta share with you that you can get 20 cards with envelopes for only $5.95, how awesome is that!? The card stamped using the Endless Wishes photopolymer stamp set in cherry cobbler and old olive. Then we embossed the card using the Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder and added a strip of washi tape. We stamped a snowflake from the Festive Flurry stamp set and cut out with the Festive Flurry thinlet die. Popped it on with a stampin' dimensional and a rhinestone to complete the card. For the envelope, we cut out liners using paper from the Season of Style paper stack.<br />

Time to work on my own personal holiday projects now. Meanwhile, my brain is thinking of projects for my 2014 class in January...I'm open to any suggestions! I'm thinking of making some projects for Valentine's Day!<br />
That's it for now. Thank you for stopping by to check out my post. Hopefully, I will have time to post the projects from the previous classes...sorry so late with those!<br />

What I can't believe is that time escapes me all every month and even more so these days, I'm having a hard time keeping up with my blog and posting all of the projects from my classes. I'm going to have to get better about making some time to post! I can't promise regular posting, but I can promise that I am going to try harder!<br />

Today, I'm posting a little sneak peek of the projects that I have created for my customers and downline who have attended my classes during the year. These projects will be offered at my holiday party at no charge, as my way of saying <b><span style="color: #38761d;">THANK YOU</span></b> to you for your support of my classes and business. Without you, I would not be able to continue as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. <br />
I was only able to finalize the projects this past weekend, thank goodness it was a long holiday weekend for me! The original date of the party WAS supposed to be happening this Saturday, November 16 that was until I had a house of sick kids which delayed my creation of the projects. I'll explain more about the "kids" another time.<br />
The NEW date for my holiday party will be on <b><span style="color: red;">SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 24 at 11:00 a.m</span></b>. at my home. I will be providing snacks, drinks and these fun holiday projects! If you would like to bring a dish to share, please let me know so I can tell you what dishes I already have to avoid duplication.<br />
If you have attended any of my classes this year and would like to join me to celebrate the holidays on November 24, please RSVP via email no later than November 20. You must attend in person to receive your project kit.<br />
Looking forward to celebrating the holidays early with you! Don't forget to email me to RSVP no later than November 20.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09110635860790581775noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-642547691283220587.post-87962077640445858892013-10-12T23:46:00.000-07:002013-10-12T23:46:00.902-07:00Tags, Giftcard holders and Bags Class Sneak Peek!I can't believe that it's already October! I'm sooooo late in getting my October class projects rolling - <br />
but I finally was able to come up with the ideas and just in time too. The October class featuring holiday gift tags, giftcard holders and bags will be held on Saturday, October 19 and Sunday, October 20 starting at 10:00 a.m. at my home. We will be making 10 tags (5 each of 2 designs), 4 giftcard holders (2 each of 2 designs) and 4 bags (2 each of 2 designs). Here is a sneak peek of the projects! <br />

The cost for this class is $25 and will include everything you need to complete these projects. Please RSVP via email to me as soon as possible since we only have one week before the class. If you have already RSVP'd to me last month and have paid, may I ask that you send me an email to make sure I have you down? Thank you!! I have been distracted with some family matters this past couple of weeks, so I appreciate a reminder. I usually have everything down and organized, but this time, I have to admit, I need your help, just to make sure. Thank you, thank you!!<br />
I will be offering the "to go" kits as well for $35 and demonstrators pay $12, which is a deal for these holiday projects! Speaking of demonstrators, Stampin' Up! is having a promotion until October 21 to join for only $25! One of the perks of being a demonstrator is paying half-price for classes! If you are interested, email me, or check out the scoops on my SU website www.alohagirl.stampinup.net.<br />
Looking forward to those who already signed up for this class. I had fun creating these projects and can't wait to share them with you!!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09110635860790581775noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-642547691283220587.post-75370233136042623802013-09-08T13:35:00.003-07:002013-09-08T13:35:51.675-07:00Snowflake Ornaments!Just wanted everyone to get excited with me about these beautiful snowflake ornaments! We will be making three of these ornaments - one each in Soft Sky, Pistachio Pudding and Silver. These will be a perfect addition to your tree, on a gift or on a gift bag! As a side note, you might want to bring your own scoring tool such as a trimmer with a scoring blade, or your simply scored scoring tool (a scoring board with stylus) as you will need to score some of the snowflakes. I will have scoring tools available for use, but you might not want to wait to use them.<br />

I have now opened up a Sunday class - September 22nd starting at 10:00 a.m. I have had more than a few requests for Sunday classes, so we will do class on BOTH Saturday, September 21st and Sunday, September 22nd. When sending in your email RSVP, be sure you specify what day you are reserving your space for. FYI, Sunday class is filling up fast! I have more space for my Saturday class.<br />

The holiday card class will be held on Saturday, September 21 at my home starting at 10:00 a.m. We will be making 10 cards with matching envelopes and even a snowflake ornament! We will be using the envelope liner die to line our envelopes with designer series paper to match our holiday cards! The liners really makes the card look more complete, in my opinion and I love it! This class will also feature the latest circle and label thinlet card die. These cool cards are so easy to make and I can't wait to share them with you! The cost for this class is $25 and will include everything you need to complete 10 cards with matching envelopes as well as a cool snowflake ornament. Demonstrators cost is $12.00 and "to go" kits will be $35.<br />
To reserve your space at this class, you will need to RSVP via email and send in your payment. The payment holds your space for this class. I will try to accommodate as many people as I can for this class. If I have a lot of interest, I may open up a Sunday class - not sure just yet. You can mention a preference of days in your RSVP so I can let you know if a Sunday class opens up. <br />
In the event you do not show up for the class, you will need to make
arrangements with me to pick up your kit. If you wish to have me
complete the stamping and cutting for you, there will be an additional
charge as it will be considered a "to go" kit. Thanks for your understanding!<br />
Please be sure to bring your tool kits as well. For this class, you may want to bring your trimmer with a scoring tool, or if you have a scorepal or something can score lines. This will be for used for the snowflake. I will have my scoring tools available, but you might have to wait for use.<br />

We made 5 tags using the Chalk Talk dies. These tags remind me of the closure for a loaf of bread, I love them!<br />

Thank you to all of the ladies who attended my class. It was so nice to see everyone again after a long absence. I sure did miss this monthly gathering, but taking care of Dad was top on my priority list. I know that everyone understands why I had to stop the classes, it was tough. My Dad, who also loved my classes, was there in spirit cheering me on and was smiling to see all of ladies enjoying themselves too.<br />
Thanks for stopping by today!<br />

NEW PROJECTS!!Well, here I am with an NEW post for the August class. Sometimes it's hard to guess what kind of projects customers want to make and I guess being that the star book was something we made in the past (I can't even remember what year we made it, but it was quite a long time ago), the interest was not quite there. But that's okay! Initially, I was really bummed that I selected the wrong project to make, but I'm didn't want to give up. I am determined to get back on track with hosting one class a month. It's really hard to re-establish what I had before I stopped to take care of my Dad. I heard him tell me to not give up so I went back to the drawing board and created ALL NEW projects! I'm hoping that there is still some interest for a class with these new card creations. These cards were really fun to make because I used a lot of new products including the Deco Label frame lit die as well as the Apothecary Accents frame lit die. These cards will feature heat embossing as well as the dry embossing (using the embossing folders Modern Mosaic and Beautifully<b> </b>Baroque). Although I love all of these new creations, my favorite is the pocket card! Here is a little sneak peek of the projects that we will make!<br />

The class will remain for Saturday, August 24 at 10:00 am at my home. Please RSVP (via email) as soon as possible as I will need to cut all of the kits this week. The cost is $20.00 and will include all of the materials for the projects. Demonstrators cost is $10.00. Please be sure to bring your tool kit.<br />
Note: for the two ladies that did email me about the star book, you can still do the star book at this class instead of the cards. Please let me know!<br />
Well, I'm hoping that that these cards appeal to some of you and that I will get some interest.

August is here! It's been so hot lately, it's so hard to drag myself into the craft area since I have no windows in that room, so I'm depending on my fan. The fan pretty much just blows around the warm air - ick!<br />
This month, the class project will be one that I made a really long time ago. This is the mini star book. I love this book! Here is what the front cover looks like. We will be using the stamp set Zoo Babies and Happy Day. We will also be using the Polka Dot Parade DSP and candy dots! Please note that the kits will be cut using all of the colors from the polka dot parade designer series paper so each kit's color will vary. The kits will be handed out randomly. Just wanted you to know ahead of time the color variation. All of the colors are so pretty! I know you will love the color you get in your kit!<br />

Here's the info to sign up for the class...The class was originally supposed to take place on Saturday, August 17, but I just realized that today is the 7th and there is no way that I will get it all together in 10 days, soooooo, I will move the class down a week and it will be on <b><span style="color: red;">Saturday, August 24 at 10:00 a.m. at my home</span></b>. Cost for the class will be $20 and will include all of the materials to complete this cute star book including your own pack of candy dots! Demonstrators pay only $15 for the kit, which will also include the pack of candy dots. If there is any interest for kits to go, the cost will be $35 which will include all of the materials prepped, instructions to complete the project and the package of candy dots as well as shipping cost.<br />
Please RSVP via email no later than August 13 to reserve your space to attend this class and then send in your payment. Be sure you bring your own tool kit. Note: for this project, you will need to bring a roll of sticky tape or some form of tape on a roll. The roll adhesive will stick better on these pages since we are making a book.<br />
I'm looking forward to seeing all of you again! We always have so much fun at the class and I'm sure this month will be no different! Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09110635860790581775noreply@blogger.com0
