Hi Everyone, new Tim Holtz products have arrived.  Here are some
of the items I got in. 

 Hi Everyone. here we have samples of two classes that are being
offered next Saturday May 5th. I am doing the AM class, and Karen
is doing the PM class.

La Blanche & Butterfies  10:00-1:00

We will be using LaBlanche Specialty Stamping Paper, Copic Markers and Tim Holtz Distress Markers to make these two fun cards.  The stamp is a stunning Butterfly stamp from Penny Black.

Fun with Texture 2:00-5:00

Join us for this class and have some fun with texture.  We’ll be working with the new Mixed Media Inx from Colorbox and ultrathick embossing enamel to make a gorgeous textured backdrop for our Fantasy Film fish.  The finishes on this card shimmer and glow with the iridescent qualities of the enamel background and fantasy film.  For the second project, try out the new Tim Holtz Distress Markers to create a moody, intense focal image, with some great texture added for a vintage look.

Hi Everyone, I am thinking of ordering this Porta-Ink unit that also holds your markers, Stickles, Glue, etc. so please let me know if you are interested in ordering one.  I am only going to order the number that are required.

HI Everyone, we have more Memory Box Dies in and I also have
some new ones from Cottage Cutz...pictures on the right.

Hi Everyone, we have 3 wonderful classes this week.  On thursday

April 19th we have Dies - Dies and More Dies 10:00-12:30. We have a new, very talented instructor Paula who just loves using these wonderful dies.    "Make two lovely 3-D cards using the Cuttlebug machine, embossing folders and a variety of dies including Spellbinders, Creatables and new Memory Box ones.  Plus, learn how to distress the diecuts with ink, a stylus and other tools to create lifelike foliage.  Combining these techniques with some basic stamping will definitely add the "WOW" factor to your cardmaking.

On Saturday Monica works her magic with metal in time for a beautiful

Mother's Day Gift. Floral Metal Art 10:00-1:00. "Explore Art Metal techniques in creating this unique card. Use a stamp, Ten Seconds Studio tools and metal to make this unique piece that you can put on a card or take home and frame.  Choose your finish for this wonderful floral art metal card,  either in a faux pewter finish, or as a

brilliantly coloured card. Suitable for Mother's Day or that special birthday."

Then on Saturday afternoon Karen will be working with my Layered

Flower Stamp to make these two stunning cards.

Floral Elegance and Floral Fun  2:00-4:00

"Join us for this class when we'll use one stamp two ways. 

Our floral fun card will use several different techniques to get

 a bright, colourful feature that would be great

for a special birthday or Mother's Day.  Our floral elegance card will use the same stamp but a completely different approach to get a serene, elegant card, perfect for a wedding or anniversary.
