Friday Night Strip Class.....

Did your eyes pop out of your head on that title? Did you think that I fell off my rocker this summer? No, I haven't installed a pole in my living room, although I have heard that it's great exercise (Lord knows I need more of that), but I'm not that brave. LOL! On Friday, August 14th, I'll be holding a strip class, a paper crafting strip class, that is. You will have the option of creating 6 scrapbook pages or 12 cards using the same supplies for $15. (See samples below-you can click on each pic to see a larger image). If you are interested in making both the scrap pages and the cards, you'll save a little bit. Cost will be $25.

The class will start at 6:30 PM and run until midnight. To make the projects posted below, you only need to bring adhesive and scissors. I will provide the rest.

The projects won't take 5 1/2 hours though! You are welcome to make the projects and go home if you'd like. But, if you have some projects of your own to work on, bring them along and stay until midnight. I'll have snacks and drinks, so I'm sure we'll be doing plenty of eating and socializing too! It will be a girls night out with a little work, a little play, some good food and lots of laughs.

RSVP deadline for the strip class is Friday, August 7th. I hope you'll come and join the fun!!

August 4th Scrap Night Pages

Hello Everyone,

Here are the scrapbook pages that we will be doing on Tuesday, August 4th, 2 pages for $5. As usual, there are 2 sessions - one at 4 PM and one at 6:30 PM. I apologize for the short RSVP time, but July flew by and August is creeping up so quickly! I don't know where this summer is going. If it would just warm up and feel like summer.......

Please RSVP with your preferred time by this Saturday, August 1st. Bring your adhesive and scissors. Everything else is provided for you. The open space for pictures is approx. 6" X 9" for planning purposes. Looking forward to seeing you.......

Hi Everyone,

I said I would have the Christmas in July cards posted on Monday.....well I made it just under the wire. I was waiting on some supplies, along with a little procrastination........so here I am at almost 11 PM posting for you. LOL! There are five samples below.

We will be making 20 cards, 4 each of 5 different designs. This session will take 2-3 hours and will start at 9 AM with a light breakfast. Cost to attend the morning session is $25.
