Simple yet Chic

I like simple. Which means I like simple cards. Try cardmaking that is simple. Love that too! Here is another card from my upcoming holiday card class. Which brings me to this fact that I have not started making my holiday greeting cards to mail out yet. However, when I look at this one, I say, yes, this one might be the one that gets widely distributed. And I have several holiday rubber stamps, so I could change out the greetings . . . Yes, this could work out.

It's beginning to look a lot like ...

... holiday card class time! Yea!!! Here is one of the cards that I am teaching at an upcoming card class. It is a part of a kit for a class that I will be teaching in the Village of New Concord. We will make five cards and one tag - all are holiday themed.

I think they are relatively easy to make. I love ribbon and most of the cards include ribbon in some capacity. They were all fun to make.

Let me know what you think.

Holiday Paper Bag Mini Book

I recently created this Holiday Paper Bag Mini Book. I will be teaching a class in November. Should be fun, huh?

Size does not matter ...

I had a card class today. The turn out was low - only three particpants including the store owner along with another participant and her 8-year-old daughter, who was celebrating her birthday! It was still a good time. Card making can be quite relaxing. So, it is not the size of the class because we certainly had a nice time!

Here is one of the cards that we made - there were four total and they were all pretty simple.

I am already full steam ahead on my next big project - a paperbag mini-book with a christmas theme. I hope to post pix in the next week.

Giving myself credit

So, I hosted my first card making class on yesterday. I had seven attendees. I had a total of ten kits available and the other three sold as well. Good stuff.

It mostly went well. A couple of people say they had missing letters that I had already cut out, but every time, I either located them in the envelope or the letters had fallen on the floor. I compiled the kits with such meticulousness it is crazy. Overall, not bad. Oh and one more thing, I was supposed to make a bookmark, but failed to have one - big oops. Thing is, the night before when I was done with the kits, I almost decided to make some tags ...

So here is what is next ... another class "It's All About Gratitude." That is a little more than a week away. But I had wanted to beg off because I have been swamped and my schedule is tight. I could not figure out when I would have time to make the cards for the class, let alone the kits. It was not until I arrived @ the store yesterday and it was listed on the calendar, that I knew that I had to get together. So I made great haste today and pulled together four cards (no bookmark).

I like this one a lot ... enjoy, radiogirl
