The Teacher is in!

Don't worry, I only hand out A+'s and there are no tests! I spent the entire weekend planning some awesome classes for you. I love sharing my passion for paper crafting and it's even more fun when my studio is full of happy, crafty women. Over the years, you've gotten used to my annual Holiday Hoopla classes, but this year I'll be doing things a little differently.

Instead of having 12 classes in 2 weeks, they will spread out all season long. The first class of the holiday season will be in October; I'm spending the next 2 weeks designing all the beautiful samples. The minute I finish a project I'll post the sample here. (EEKS! That means I have to learn how to create a watermark and add that to the photo!)

I'm really looking forward to the collection of classes this year and I really am looking forward to having you join me in The Studio. Check out my classes, posted below, and don't wait to sign up!

(Early Bird registration - sign up for classes before Sept. 25 and receive $1 off registration.)
