August 2019

It's August.  The good news (for most parents, anyway) is that kids go back to school; the bad news is - dare I say it??? - we are on the downward slide to the Holidays (Aghhhhhhhhhh!!!!).  Yep, I said it; now is the time to be looking forward to what your crafting projects are from now to the end of the 2019 and prepare an action plan.  Enough said.

Classes for August are coming up next week.  Here is the schedule:
    
     Thursday, August 8 (9:00 a.m. to noon and 1:30 to 4:30 p.m.)
     Friday, August 9 (9:00 a.m. to noon)
     Saturday, August 10 (9:00 a.m. to noon and 1:30 to 4:30 p.m.)
     Sunday, August 11 (1:30 to 4:30 p.m.)

At this time, there is availability for all classes, so if you haven't reserved your spot, give me a call, text me or send an email.  Class fee is $15.00.  Want to see the cards we will be making?  Take a look below...









All of the above cards are made using the
Good Morning Magnolia Stamp Set, 
Magnolia Memory Dies and (on most)
the Magnolia Lane DSP.  All cards were
CASE'd from other talented demonstrators!


This will not be made in class, but is great 
idea if you want to make a fast, easy hostess 
gift of the cards you make in class. I just decorated 
one of our Acetate Card Boxes (pg 173 of the AC)
with card stock, Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon (pg 173 of the AC) 
and die-cut flowers from the Magnolia Lane DSP. Voila!! 

Christmas Card Club for August is scheduled for...

     Friday, August 23 (9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.)
     Saturday, August 24 (9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.)

Here are the Christmas cards we will be making.


This card was made with the Magnolia Lane DSP
and colored with alcohol markers (the above picture is 
colored with Poppy Parade and the one below is 
Flirty Flamingo). You will need to bring your own 
markers or have me order them for you.  NOTE: you 
will be making one or the other of these cards.




This card is made using products from
Elizabeth Craft Designs.  When doing Christmas
cards, I may not always use Stampin' Up! products
exclusively.  The word stamps are Stampin' Up!


The details of the Christmas Card Club: 
     Each class is limited to 6 per class, there is still availability.  A 
     Saturday afternoon class may be added if needed.
     Cost is $30.00 and you will make 5 each of 2 designs; envelopes 
     included.  Should you not care for both cards, you may come 
     and make just one of the designs at a cost of $15.00 (must 
     specify this when you sign up).
     There is a cancellation fee after a predetermined date. Please 
     contact me for details.


Bonus Days Codes must be used this month.  If you purchased $50 or more during the month of July and received an email with Bonus Days Codes, now is the time to cash them in!! They are only honored during the month of August.  


Paper Pumpkin subscribers or those who may want to subscribe; there is an "add on" kit for the August Paper Pumpkin (called Gift of Fall).  The actual  August kit will make 6 fall-themed gift bags and 12 fall-themed gift tags.  If you are not a subscriber, you must sign up by August 10 to receive the kit.  The link is:
