ARE YOU INTERESTED IN LEARNING NEW TECHNIQUES?

  

(Technique 1 - Mother of Pearl background - will not be a Christmas card)
I am starting a new group in January that will meet once per month for six months. You will learn one or two (depending on the complexity) new techniques each month and make a card using each technique.
Each class will require an order of $33 per person (limit of 6 people),  and each person will receive hostess benefits once during the six month period.

You can order whatever you like, and when it is your hostess month you can bring in extra orders to raise your hostess benefits.

Saturday, January 8, 2-4 pm
If this timing doesn't work for you - let me know.
First come - First served!
