Christmas Collage

I LOVE this card, because it gives the impression of dimension, but there aren't a lot of pieces to cut and adhere.  This is a great design if you have to make a lot of holiday cards! Impression Obsession has really perfected the art of overstamping and collage, and this card takes full advantage of that! 

Join us Thursday between 10 & 8 and see how easy it is to create a stunning holiday collage.

New Way of Thinking!

Recently, we've shown you lots of ways to use your brass stencils.  We've shown you how to use your Cuttlebug to emboss with them, we've shown you pastes and we've shown you sprays.  And here is yet another way to not only use your stencils, but also make use of all those little scraps of paper you've been saving!  How awesome is that???

Join us this Thursday between 10 & 8 for our FREE card make-and-take project.  This time, we'll be doing some paper piecing, using a design from a brass stencil.  We'll add some texture with an embossing folder, and a sentiment from Northwoods. 

Don't forget, we will be CLOSED next Thursday, November 22, as we celebrate Thanksgiving.  We'll be back the following Thursday with another fabulous FREE make-and-take (here's a teaser....it's a Christmas card featuring Impression Obsession stamps - wahoo!)

One card at a time

I got started on my Christmas cards when I took the weekend of classes with Shari Carroll.  And then my time got hijacked.  I bet I'm not alone....  So, I'm excited that this week's FREE make-and-take card can be used as a holiday card, or really a card for any occasion.  By golly - I will finish my Christmas cards this year - even if it's one card at a time!

Stop in Thursday between 10 & 8 and make on of these cards featuring stamps from Hero Arts.  The sentiment and color of this card is very soothing - just what you need at the mad rush of the holidays.  And, it's easily reproducible, if you have a large holiday card list!  Hope to see you Thursday!

Too pretty to open!

Tomorrow is our next installment of Demos with Dee!  Join us between 12 & 2 to learn all the fantastic things you can do with our Accu-Cut!  This big, wonderful tool is available for your use any time classes aren't in session, and best of all, it's FREE!  And, you don't have to figure out where to store this "monster tool" in your own home - what could be better than that????  Actually, I'll tell you what could be better than that - chocolate!  Dee will have some treats to go in the little treat boxes you'll be making.  NOW - seriously - what could be better than THAT???
