Free Make & Takes THIS Saturday

I just wanted to show you the adorable tag we will be making today at the store. We kept the project VERY simple as we did not know what to expect for our first session. For those of you that do not know, we are participating in Downtown Chatham's Dickens of a Christmas. Various businesses will be having little events in their stores for the four Saturdays before Christmas. The dates include

• November 29
• December 6
• December 13
• December 20

We will be featuring a different tag each Saturday.

This project incorporates Stampingbellas new Christmas stamps (note...students may also choose a sweet snowman or a rocking reindeer....also from Bella). A new Bella shipment arrived yesterday so we just HAD to use some of these adorable designs! We also used Stickles, Nestabillities, a Tombow and very cute crystal brads from Making Memories (also new to the store this week). We know that many of you are beyond this level of stamping but we hope to see you out supporting your downtown!


Note...next week I hope to post the project on Friday if all goes well! It will be up Saturday morning at the absolute latest. I also promise to post more regularly....I didn't realize you guys would miss us that much!! (=

Christmas Cards with Pauline
Design 3 elegant Christmas cards in this class. We will be using some clear acrylic stamps from the Inkadinkado sets for 2 of the cards along with using the nestabilites, clear embossing, stamping, glitter and gorgeous decorative papers. The third card will be white and gold - using a cuttlebug tree folder, some sentiment peel offs, ribbon and to finish it off, some liquid pearls.
Dates...Wednesday November 26 OR Tuesday December 2 OR Tuesday December 9
Time....6pm
Cost....$18
Mandatory supplies...scissors, adhesive

Christmas Cards with Debbie
Two very different but amazing cards will be created in this class. For the Santa card, you will work with some amazing decorative paper, emboss, use glitter and punches. Gorgeous ribbon and brads help to embellish this card. The deer in flight card uses a very different Inkadinkado deer stamp . You will emboss, paint a little and then frame it with gold krylon. Again, lots of little extras are added to really set this card off.
Note....You will also make a cute little Christmas tag (not shown here).

Dates...Monday November 24 at 10am OR Wednesday December 3 at 6pm OR Thursday December 11 at 6pm
Cost....$18
Mandatory Supplies...scissors, adhesive, pencil

Christmas Cards with Linda
These two cards just scream elegance! Each card uses great mirror paper that we carry in store and incorporates beautiful ribbon. You will be working with the Cuttlebug to create a very nice background on the martini card. Beadazzles are another very cool product used to add that little extra to the ornament card. Nestabilities will also be used for each card.

Cost...$18

Hello and Purpose of Blog

Well, here you go...our first post. Kell and I decided a blog would be the best way for us to inform you of the various happenings around the store. We are going to do away with the old fashion emails and rely on this as our main source of information. The purpose of the blog is to:

• give you more information about the various paper craft classes we offer
• inform you when new product has arrived in store
• let you know about exciting new techniques
• serve as a great place for friends to get together to share their love of the hobby

We hope you have fun following our site!
