Hi, hope you are all enjoying our autumn days, the bit of a nip in the air, the glorious colors, the changing leaves--stop and smell the season. We had a great Calligraphy class on Wednesday, September 24. My apologies for the two of you who read the class in the beginning was Thursday, Sept. 25 and were not notified of the change. Hope you will be in class Thursday, October 2; DeAnn will have the supplies that you need.
Look for a new "class/club" coming. It is the Pinecone Press Book Club and will be taught/moderated by Gayle Smith. The club will be $38 a month. With that money you will receive a class from Gayle, a project book with many projects that can be done outside the club (projects such as: frames, boxes, holiday organizers, chipboard calendars, cards--accordion, flap, flip; scrapbook pages and how to lay them out) a bag to hold your supplies (1st 12 sign-ups only) and two kits--A and B--with the materials to do anywhere from 2-6 projects in each kit. Kits come with paper, chipboard notebook, ribbon, brads, etc. In the class you will make one (or two) projects from either Kit A or Kit B, then you will take the other kit home and complete the project(s) in that kit to bring back the next month to share and receive that month's kits. On the 3rd Friday night of the month, we will have "Project Night" so if you haven't been able to finish the project at home you can come in and finish it at the shop before the next class. If you have any questions please leave a comment or email me at : stampinheart@hotmail.com
Two of our teachers, Gayle Smith and Jessica Hollowell have new blogs. Gayle's is: gayle-rubberandink.blogspot.com and Jessica's I will let you know as soon as I have it.
