Friday Night Class 7.30pm 26 November

I am super early this week with my samples for this Friday night!

We are getting a bit over Christmas cards so this Friday night, we will be featuring the Elements of Style stamp set.


The green card is based on a stunning card by the Queen of the Brayer, Michelle Zindorf (if Michelle is the Queen, our local Nikki Bennett must be the Princess!). Unfortunately, I am not nearly as adept with a brayer as Michelle and Nikki so I have adapted the card using sponging!

I will have a variety of greetings available as these cards make suitable birthday, sympathy or get well cards.

When: 7.30pm Friday 26 November
Where: 5 Capricorn Street, Bentley Park
Cost: $20 (all materials, tools and equipment provided)

Please RSVP so I know how many card kits to prepare.

Last Saturday's Christmas Card Class Samples

Better late than never ...

This is what we did last Saturday. Lots of baubles!


I love these sets - Tree Trimmings and Delightful Decorations (with the Ornament Punch). They make such quick and easy, yet very effective, cards. We also used the new Big Shot Elegant Lines embossing folder and Champagne Shimmer Paint.

Happy stamping!
