August Class is now in Session!

Hi all!

I finally got the cards designed for the August class, and I think you will be very pleased.  I'm using new stamp sets and the 2019-2020 incolors.  This month we are celebrating friendships;

My inspiration for these cards comes from Brenda Quintana, Pootles (aka Sam Donald) and Ann Marie Hile (stampinanne.com).

The stamp sets we will be using are:  To a Wild Rose ( a snap with the stamparatus)
                                                             Beautiful Friendship (a really beautiful stamp set!)
                                                             Very Versailles
                                                              Daisy Lane


I hold my classes once a month and offer the same class 3 - 4 times on different days and different times.  I travel well, so if you would like to take my class one on one or invite a group of friends over in your home, I would be happy to oblige!
