June Workshop

Had lots of things going on at home this past month so I am sorry about the delay in getting this workshop up and running. For this workshop I am doing a card workshop. I have had a couple requests for a workshop of all occasion cards so this is a mix of cards for those of you trying to fill your stash of handmade cards. At the workshop you will be able to change any sentiments as you see fit. (note: I will be doing layouts in August! Cute layouts perfect for your summer photos!)

This workshop will be held on Saturday, June 30 at 1pm. It will consist of 10 cards in a kit. There are several stamps that are being used in this workshop so you will need to attend this workshop to complete the projects. Here are pictures of what you will be making! Hope you will be able to join us. Contact me to sign up!


Here are some closer photos



Some of these designs were inspired by these lovely designers: 
Vicki Wizniuk, Allisa Chilton, Cibele Glazer Carol Labuski and Scrapbooks Etc.
