Local Stampin' Up Classes in May

Hi there!  I am so excited to share a little peek at two classes I'll be teaching next month.  I'll be teaching at a Stampin' Up! crop my friend Keisha hosts every so often in Woodbridge, VA.  You can pop over to her blog for more details about the crop.  Now you are more then welcome to sign up for the whole day but if you'd just like to pop in for class, that works too!

Here are the details for my card class:

As I said above, Keisha is hosting the crop and will also be taking payments.  She will have the Paypal link set up on her blog :)  Please let her know if you'd like your own set of stamps or extra paper added to your classes.

I'm really looking forward to these fun classes and cropping with my good friends!  I hope you'll be joining us!

Glittery Fun Card Class Coming Up!

I'll be teaching a fun card class at Scrapdoodles on December 14th!  I'm showcasing the Elizabeth Crafts Designs goodies- they are soo fun to play with!  We will be focusing on techniques using their beautiful glitter.  Here are the samples we will recreate in class:

First up is a glittery birthday card:

With this one, you'll learn just how easy this glitter is to color over using Copic markers!  It's a fun one!

Doesn't it sparkle?  These glitters are so pretty!

The second card features the great snowflake diecuts:

This one is my favorite!  I'll show you how to mask and glitter with different colors.  There's also a stripe technique hiding on this card!

Love the blues and silver- they sparkle so much in real life!

My third card is a Christmas card:

You'll learn the ins and outs of glittering diecuts with this one!

I hope you'll be able to join us for class!  It will be great for beginner, intermediate, and expert crafters especially if you're wanting to learn about the great glitters from Elizabeth Crafts!  Here are the details:

My New Class Series- Feast Layout

Good Morning!

I am teaching a new class down at Scrapdoodles in Fredericksburg! It is a technique based layout class and I will be focusing on a new product, technique or style each month. This month we will be playing with mists! With so many different brands on the market, I'll show you what the main differences are while creating two new layouts! Here is one of the samples from my class:

And here are a few shots of the details:

This layout features the new Color Shine mists by Heidi Swapp. They are beautiful and so shimmery! This one- Gold Lame is my favorite! It went wonderfully with the pictures of last year's Thanksgiving feast! My sister put out quite the spread- here she is with her beautiful turkey, fresh from the oven. My favorite of the day though was her cupcakes! She decorated them to look like Thanksgiving dinner!  So cute and they tasted even better then they looked. :)

I am really excited for this new opportunity to teach! If you are in the area, I hope you can join me! For more information on the class, please check out my post on the Scrapdoodles Blog.

Thanks for visiting my blog today!
